EINAT ADMONY - THE ULTIMATE BALABOOSTA

Menu: Moroccan Spiced Fish, Yemenite Salad with Fenugreek-Yoghurt Dressing, and Ja’ala

Einat Admony, also known as the “ultimate balaboosta,” (“perfect housewife” in Yiddish), is the chef and owner of Balaboosta, a fine-dining Middle Eastern restaurant. In addition, she is the chef/owner at Kish-Kash, New York’s first couscous bar; and the beloved falafel chain, Taim. She is also the author of two cookbooks: Balaboosta and Shuk.

Einat, called a "fiercely determined chef" by The New York Times, grew up in Tel Aviv, worked as a cook in the Israeli Army, walked away from college after two months, roamed around Germany, then packed up her life & moved to New York City. At her restaurants, Einat is known for her innovation and pushing the food scene.

As a gift to the community during these challenging times, the sponsors are providing free admission to both the chef demos and the movies of the series THE FOODIE FILM FEST.

Sponsors: EBIJFF & CCJCC.
