From Captain Fern Heinig:
Shomrei’s MESH Cafe was open on a snowy night this last night in January. We served 17 guests a hearty meal. Captain and Chief Chef Fern, with soux chefs Arden Epstein, Susan Rosenblatt, and Veronica (Montclair State) served a very appreciated home cooked four course meal consisting of Egg Salad on a bed of lettuce, hearty vegetable soup, Chicken Cacciatore (chicken thighs cooked in tomato sauce, onions, peppers, and mushrooms) with pasta and green beans, and dessert of cookies and tangerines for dessert.
Teen help was massive, which made the serving and clean up extremely efficient. Thanks to first timers Davida, Ciara, and Josie. Returning helpers who also joined were Leelah, Siona, Rachel, Sam and Teddy who had help from our MESH staff of Adrienne, and Leonard. Joe had a quiet night leading security. A special shout out to Matt, who spent the whole night washing every pot and pan.
Special thanks to Beryl and Aileen, the kitchen is wonderful and made finding everything so much easier.
Regards,
Fern
