What People are Saying About President Anna Mann

When my job brings me to New York, I always have dinner with Anna.  Each time it’s a culinary adventure, because she knows the newest restaurants, the out-of-the-way cafes in Brooklyn, the yummy ice cream parlors in Soho, and the best of the tried and true, from Indian curry to steak and pommes frites.  I wouldn’t even think of choosing a place as Anna’s suggestions are terrific and scrumptious.

When it comes to things gourmet, I always call Anna Mann. She has the most discriminating taste. And her recipes are the greatest! I often find, when cooking for Shabbos, half my dishes are actually hers!

~ Rachael, New Jersey

Ever since I met Anna so many years ago, I have been impressed with her ability to prepare fine meals while observing strict kashrus. She not only has an amazing natural talent for finding the freshest and most interesting ingredients for her own use – she also goes out of her way to understand why and how the best chefs in town prepare their dishes. She knows them personally, knows where they shop and their favorite vendors. It is always a pleasure to have Anna as a guide: during our outings, she has taught me to understand the finesse of different ingredients and to appreciate well-prepared cuisine like never before.

Anna has made food her life's passion.  Her knowledge of the New York kosher food scene is unparalleled - she will take you to places you would never have known about, and you will want to return again and again.  I always turn to Anna for restaurant recommendations when I'm in New York - everywhere she has sent me has been fantastic!

If you need to know where to buy: a perfectly ripe avocado for dinner; a ruby red and crisp watermelon; plump but firm blueberries and tomatoes - ask Anna. If you want the best ice cream in Manhattan; a moist bubka; fresh sushi; or a tender grilled steak - ask Anna. Anna is a wealth of knowledge on every food cart in Manhattan, corner grocery stores and gourmet markets. She is not only an expert shopper but an incredible cook. Her creativity, ability to combine flavors and knowledge of fine and everyday cooking is astounding. Anna is a passionate cook and to be served a meal at her table is a pure sensory experience!

~ Heidi, Toronto

Anna has a flair for food! She finds the most unusual and tastiest meals in the best restaurants and has introduced me to dishes and cuisines I never thought I'd try -- or like! You can definitely tell that Anna grew up in the greenmarkets of California -- she can sniff out the freshest fruits and vegetables better than anyone I've ever seen!

~ Michael, Long Island

There are so many ads for cooking classes and food-related adventures, it's hard to know which to choose.  But Anna's unique gift for cooking and her joy in living will make Kulinary Adventures an experience you won't forget. You will come away with a new appreciation of good food and good living.
