Recently, I was at someone’s house for brunch and bacon-covered mazoh balls were served (I believe inspired by this NPR show). How terribly traif! Well… almost. This meal was in a kosher home, so the bacon was not actually pork, but beef. Rebellious nonetheless? Certainly delightful! As a pork loving Jew, perhaps I should finally make the trek across Brooklyn to Traif, a restaurant that sounds blasphemously delicious in Williamsburg, a neighborhood known for its hipsters and Hasids.
