PESACH IN CLUB "SHALOM"

Almaty.20.04.2008

Pesach is the one of the most important Jewish holiday. It is celebrated in remembrance of the Exodus. Our family club "Shalom" knows about it very well because we get together every year in order to tall about this important event.

We got together at the second day of Passover Seder. The exhibition of cosher Passover dishes was held. The do-it-himselfers of club cooked fish, potato zrazy, chicken and even vegetable cake, without saying, the splendid cake from Matza. Of course, there were maror and haroset, reminding about slavery and liberation from it. An egg, symbolizing the cyclicity of the universe, and fried chicken bone, reminding about Passover sacrifice, which was sacrificed at the Temple of Jerusalem, were laid out on special plate. Arkadi Plotkin, the one of oldest member of the club, held Passover Seder.

Ceremonial meal was held with observing of all rituals. Only one disorder was made - felicitating win of Semen Levenberg, nonagenarian member of the club. Semen became winner of international chess tournament.
