...soaring projections about the potentials of peace. Through it all, the Egyptians have retained their traditional tolerance, indolence and humor. Until the cease-fire checkpoints were turned over to UNEF, a favorite Cairo joke was that all the food going to the city of Suez was being prepared under kosher conditions because it had to pass Israeli inspection...
...Kosher Kitchens. The whole idea of assimilation has come to seem to some Reform Jews what it has always seemed to the Orthodox-the road to godlessness. Quietly symbolic of this reverse evolution is Rabbi Alexander Moshe Schindler, the roundish, cigar-smoking World War II ski trooper who was chosen to replace Rabbi Eisendrath as the U.A.H.c.'s president. Schindler was born in Munich 47 years ago. He joined the flood of refugees who fled to the U.S. in the late 1930s, eventually becoming the U.A.H.C.'S director of education and-six years ago-its vice president. Unlike...
...Midget (up near Radcliffe) is best at preparing the kind of food usually available from delicatessens.

The triple decker "College Sandwiches" are well worth their prices, and bagels with cream cheese and lox are available (a rarity in this town). The adjoining maxi bar and lounge...

There are two restaurants in the Square devoted to hotdog cravers. The Underdog (6 Bow St., and prone to flooding on rainy days) has kosher hotdogs, multi-sized, -shaped, and -topped, with assorted garnishes, as well as bagels that are pretty good dressed up with their lox and cream cheese. ZumZum (9 Brattle St.), part of a small East coast chain, serves knockwurst, bratwurst, and bauernwurst, with very tasty potato salad. Remember to wash it down with their dark beer--it spikes the taste...
