Dysfunctional Chef: Jewish Christmas – Mock Egg Foo Yung
Our Lady of Weight Loss heard through the Christmas Grapevine that a good many of her Jewish friends and family go out for Chinese food on Christmas. In fact (here’s a juicy tidbit for you), when Justice Elena Kagan was asked by a senator at her Supreme Court confirmation hearings where she was on Christmas, she said, “You know, like all Jews, I was probably at a Chinese restaurant.”
Why Chinese Food on Christmas? There’s not that much else to do! The Chinese do not celebrate Christmas, so most Chinese restaurants are open on Christmas, an in both New York and Philadelphia, there are several kosher-certified Chinese restaurants to choose from!
