TESTIMONIALS:

 SAN FRANCISCO JCC:

“Yum! Tonight was a delightful experience of nourishing learning and laughter about the holiday of Tu B'Shvat, and the many different stories we tell through the foods we prepare in our families. This was a uniquely special moment shared by teachers, ECE families, staff, and educators. Thank you, Rabbi Bill for making the trek up from LA to bring a new kind of dinner theater to our JCC community! It was wonderful!  Thank you, colleagues for creating such a sophisticated and fun space to be together.”

TEMPLE ISAIAH, LAFAYETTE, CA:

“Hi Bill,  Both parents and staff have been chatting all week about our wonderful time spent with you.  You were even discussed at our senior staff meeting by a parent who attended last Thursday evening and heads up temple membership.  She told the clergy they should hire you asap!!  Too bad your roots are deep in Los Angeles, it would be great to collaborate in so many ways.  Seriously though, thank you so much for all of your thoughtful conversations and teaching with our Gan Ilan parents and staff.  It was so energizing to learn by doing (and eating, of course) and to see everyone so engaged and truly excited about edible Judaism.” 

Liz Kaufman,  Director, Gan Ilan Preschool, Temple Isaiah

“Rabbi Kaplan’s presence at this event was such a treat. A perfect complement to the theme of the evening. His passion for Judaism, Jewish learning, and food was palpable and he was tremendously engaging. What a gift it was to have him speak at this event”

Hi Rabbi Bill,

“Thank you so much for an educational, fun, interactive program and very tasty program.  It was a great way to kick off our Hawthorne Fund series.”
