Julie's Kitchen
Aug. 16th, 2002 09:36 amI went to this relatively new kosher take-out place in Newton Center yesterday afternoon.
It's not just take-out: there are 10 little square tables for 2 that can be moved around in the front of the store, which is pretty nice, in a blond-wood-and-tile sort of way.
There's a case in the middle with a non-self-serve salad bar on one side, and fresh fish on another. Then there are two sort of diagonal cases heading towards the back: one side is fleishig (meat and things cooked in meat pots), the other pareve (neutral). On their holiday menu, they list milchig (dairy) stuff, and a woman told me that they have a milchig kitchen for catering and advance orders, but not in the shop.
So, the food in both cases looked nummy, and, as my friend had mentioned, rather pricey. In the end, I couldn't convince myself to get anything, since I was going to potluck, and away for the weekend. Oh, the pareve side includes a bakery section, and there's a brick oven behind it.
The food I happen to remember included a snow pea dish, salmon with hoisin and greens, salmon burgers, some grain salads, a variety of chicken dishes, meat and turkey loaves, ribs. They also had fresh mango chutney, onion jam, soup, some extremely fattening-looking desserts (fattener), also some breads, interesting wraps.
I think I'll end up there again, probably to get one or two things that I'll complement with stuff of my own.
