I think that we need a better way to handle this type of information. There is some information that is being kept on the Jerusalem1 system, but I don't think it is accessible by email request. If I am wrong please correct me. I am trying to get in touch with the person running it there. In the meantime, we may want to consider setting up the information here at Nysernet is a well documented format so people can access it, help update it etc. We would need someone with telnet access who would like to help manage that. I will recontact the person who volunteered some ages ago, and see if she is still interested. If anyone else is, please get in touch with me. I would propose that for the near future, short kosher/jewish place information requests will continue to be accepted for mail-jewish, but would go out with a distinctive Subject line and not be included in the current volume/number numbering scheme. Responses to such requests should go to the individual who has made the request, not to mail-jewish. The individual who makes the request should collect the information received and forward it to the kosher/jewish place co-ordinator, who will add it to the archive database. People in places can also put together place information files and forward it to the co-ordinator for inclusion in the archive area. On a regular basis, a list of the new and updated information files will be posted to mail-jewish.

Being frum, I need to find out the following information: 1) Is kosher food readily available? The workshop will be held in Sestri Levante, 40km from Genoa. 2) Is there a kosher caterer in the area such that the workshop organisers could contact them? 3) Any ideas for accomodation for one Shabbat (18-19 March) and for the first two days of Pesach? Anywhere in Italy is fine. Any suggestions or contacts would be most appreciated! Please reply to me directly. Andrea Goldman SAIMR, Johannesburg, South Africa.

Yolkut" <yolkut@...> Date: Tue, 25 Jan 94 19:45:23 -0500 Subject: Kashrut in Dearborn Harry Koslovsky wrote in asking about Kashrut in Dearborn. Dearborn, the heart of the Detroit Arab communty, is about fifteen-twenty minutes by car from Southfield/Oak Park, the center of the Jewish communty in Metro Detroit. Sara's Deli, a glatt kosher restarant under the HAshgacha of the Vaad HaRAbbanim of Greater Detroit, is on Greenfield Road in Southfield; UniqueKosher Catering (or something like that) is a Glatt take out place across the street in Oak Park. New York Pizza World, a (I believe Cholov Yisrael) "pizza place" is around the corner on Lincoln Road.

If anyone knows the area, I would be interested to hear of any shuls or kosher facilities that are available nearby (is anything?). Are there any catering companies which will supply pre-packed meals? Also, what are the 'reliable' kosher symbols for that part of the USA? Any information or local contacts would be welcome. Thanks!

There is a Kosher establishment under Hashgacha (its called Lotus Garden, I think). HOWEVER, not all items in that restaurant are Kosher! Apparently, food prepared on premises are fine, however, the restaurant may bring in foods from elsewhere as well (not under Hashgacha). (This, at least, was the case a couple of years ago, when we were there). Please speak to the Mashgiach and ask him precisely what may and may not be eaten there.
