The Embassy of Israel in The Hague, Diplomat Magazine and Crowne Plaza will feature Israeli Flavours from June 7 to June 9.
This event will showcase Israeli cuisine by Head-Chef Jonathan Borowitz. He said on choosing to represent Israeli food during the festival:
“I decided to take part in the food festival since against all reasonable odds; the Israeli culinary scene is experiencing a tremendous era. After 70 years of Israel, we, Israeli chefs and foodies, are finally starting to see our voice and our ideas spread and heard in kitchens across the world. The influx of immigrants which shaped this country brought with it an animated palate of flavors and scents so for me as a cook I have so much to work with. Food is also a bridge, natural link between people, and I find it a part of my job description, to bring people together”.
His Excellency Aviv Shir-On, Ambassador of Israel will host the event together with the popular Amit Aaronsohn, from Israel’s Food News.
“For the last ten years I have been combining my love for the culinary world and my profession as a journalist. I have gained extensive experience in all types of media – Television, Radio and Print – both as an editor and a reporter. I was the first TV journalist in Israel to present a weekly news update dedicated entirely to the culinary world and later also a daily culinary news edition – “Israel’s Food News”.
I also write a weekly restaurant review column in Jerusalem and operate a widely popular Facebook page and Instagram accounts. I have a master degree (MA) in Food, Culture and Communication from the University of Gastronomic Sciences in Pollenzo, Italy (UNISG, Also known as the “Slow Food” University). I consider myself a culinary adventurer – both in the restaurant world, by constantly searching for new establishments and flavors, and in the privacy of my kitchen, by documenting classic recipes and combining them with new techniques and ingredients.”
Diplomat Magazine & Crowne Plaza partnered with embassies to present the best cuisine of the world during all 2018 now from Thursday, June 7th to June 9th starting at 6:30 pm enjoy the absolute wonderful taste of Israel.
