Jewish New Year prix fixe menus at Zahav and London Grill

POSTED: Friday, September 7, 2012, 11:25 AM

If your memories of Jewish holiday dining revolve around overcrowded tables, overcooked brisket and slimy gefilte fish from a jar, you might want to consider changing up your high holy day routine. Instead of piling into bubbie's house why not book a table at Zahav (237 St. James Place) or London Grill (2301 Fairmount Ave.)

From September 16th to the 20th Michael Solomonov is serving up a $48 prix fixe menu that's worlds away from your typical Rosh Hashana fare. He's starting out with his ubiquitous (and unfailingly delicious) hummus topped with pine nuts and chanterelles and matzoh ball soup with brisket and beets. Crispy halloumi with dates, walnuts and apples and duck three ways follow and the meal ends on a sweet note with apple fritters with Israeli honey and vanilla semifreddo.

Over at London Grill chef Terrence McNally is ditching the gefilte fish for horseradish crusted salmon, dishing up matzoh ball soup and serving brisket and brick chicken with family-style sides. This prix fixe is running from September 16th to the 18th and 3 courses go for $28 with kids eating for half price.
