Show off your culinary talents. Enter Madison’s Jews’ Next Dor’s Apple and Honey Cook-off. Everyone present will be judges and enjoy our Apple and Honey-themed Shabbat dinner.

Be sure to carefully read the rules (below) in advance, to ensure your dish qualifies for judging. No competition would be complete without prizes, but you must enter to win.

Of course, you’re welcome to come welcome in Shabbat with us and wish your fellow Jews’ Next Dor friends (Jewish 20 and 30 somethings) a sweet new year, without entering a dish. Please bring beverages (doesn’t have to be apple and honey-themed).
