Subject: Re: Albany and Syracuse
Regarding Albany and Syracuse, there is (or at least used to be) a truly
excellent vegitarian restaurant under hashgacha about 2 blocks from the
SUNY campus in Albany. The campus is a ways from downtown.
There is a Chabad house I understand close to the Sheraton in Syracuse.
There is a restaurant at the DeWitt exit off the 81 bypass (381) under
conservative hashgacha. The next restaurant is at the JCC in in
Binghampton.
A note regarding Penn State, a 1 hour drive takes you to the Empire
plant in Mifflintown, there used to be excellent deals there, and
probably still are.
(Sheraton in Syracuse refers to the University Sheraton).

Subject: Concord Hotel in the Catskills
I have heard conflicting things about the Concord Hotel (in the New York
Catskills). What is the status of its hechsher (kosher certification)?
[I would interpret that question to mean, does it have a hechsher, and
if yes, who gives the hechsher? Mod.]
Replies can be either to mail-jewish or personally to me.
Thanks.

Subject: NASHVILLE & EARTHQUAKE
In 11-32 Elliot Lasson asked about shuls, food, etc. in Nashville.
The Orthodox Shul is Sherith Israel at 3600 West End Avenue. It is
a very nice shul with daily morning and evening minyans. The
people are very friendly. The Rabbi is Rabbi Posner. There are
two supermarkets south of the shul that have kosher products. One
(I can't remember the name, but you can call the shul) has a large
selection of Meal Mart and Mon microwaveable TV dinners.
The shul is approximately a 30 minute drive from the Opryland
Hotel. (definitely not walking distance) The Opryland is a
magnificent hotel that is worth seeing even if you don't stay
there. The public areas are a massive indoor garden with
waterfalls. There were no refrigerators or microwaves in the room
I had when I was there. They also charge extra for everything,
(even using the exercise room), so they would probably charge to
heat up a TV dinner.
The shul is located just south of Vanderbilt University. The
closest hotel to the Shul is the Holiday Inn. I spent Shabbat at
the Med Center Inn which is approximately 2 miles from the shul.
The hotel is an older hotel, catering primarily to relatives of
people with relatives in the hospitals affiliated with Vanderbilt,
but has a refrigerator, microwave, access to rooms via stairs, and
real keys (with holes that can be put on a Shabbos belt).
New Subject.
My son claims not to have caused the quake just to get out of
finals, but we are glad to have him home for a while. Preliminary
reviews show damage to Valley Torah HS to be minor. Does anyone
have the status of the other Jewish facilities in Los Angeles.
On Thursday Hinda Langer was listening to KGO radio and heard a
Seismologist predict a major earthquake in San Francisco within 48
hours. Her husband Rabbi Yosef Langer of Chabad of San Francisco called
the Rebbe through Rabbi Groner. The Rebbe instructed them to leave San
Francisco. Our Shul in Sacramento was packed this Shabbat with numerous
Lubavitchers from San Francisco. Rabbi Langer said he was not sure
whether the Rebbe was agreeing that there would be an earthquake or
sending to Sacramento to give Chizzuk in the state Capitol to prevent an
earthquake.

[I know that there are two shuls in town, and when I was there a few
years ago over Shabbat, I ate at the Rabbi of the Chofetz Chaim (I
think) shul. Great place to be in February! Mod.]
