kosher martini bar
Did anyone reading this know that the original martini was invented about two dozen miles Northeast of the very location of the Berkeley Community-Wide Cool Jew Book Launch reception ??
Also, shouldn't the open bar be more correctly called a Moish-ini bar instead of a Martini bar, especially if the key drink has kosher wine in it instead of the typically unkosher vermouth ??
....and speaking of ini's.
FWIW (and I looked this up in 'Cool Jew'), bet that anyone reading this doesn't know offhand, great magician Harry Houd-ini's original name.
He was born Jewish, was the son of a rabbi in Hungary, and was buried in the Jewish Machpela Cemetery in Queens,NY separate from his non-Jewish wife..
Optional or not, I'm wearing the Hawaiian shirt for sure!
