Food: A Great Uniter

I greatly enjoyed Raphael Ahren's wonderful description of the visit to the United Arab Emirates and the meal that was prepared. Here's a tasty morsel:

"A kosher banquet and a paradigm change: UAE signals this will be a warm peace. In Abu Dhabi, those keeping kosher were served a kosher-certified gourmet dinner.
(For starters, there was beetroot salad, artichokes, mushroom tempura, zucchini balls with feta cheese, vegetarian spring rolls with sweet and spicy sauce. This was followed by salmon with lemon butter sauce, filled seabass fillet, sweet potato with fresh truffle and crispy microgreens and garlic baby vegetables. For dessert, there was “lava dark chocolate fondant and dehydrated wild berries.”)"
