Show 554, December 2, 2023: The Milky Way – Latke Boxes To-Go with Consulting Executive Chef Philip Kastel Part One

Phil Kastel of PK+J Hospitality Group

It’s holiday Latke Time at The Spielberg Family’s kosher diary restaurant, The Milky Way, in the Pico / Robertson neighborhood of Los Angeles. It’s a loving tribute to The Family’s late Mother, Leah (Spielberg) Adler. “There will be candles, there will be dreidels – but most importantly there will be latkes! Often called “the best in Los Angeles”, people flock to The Milky Way on Pico restaurant for this Hanukkah necessity. Made fresh and ready to pick up in the signature Milky Way box, the Latke Box features a dozen latkes, house-made apple compote and sour cream.” We pull Consulting Executive Chef Philip Kastel away from gently frying the latkes to be with us.

Also there is a festive Hanukkah launch party with a Menorah Lighting Ceremony on the menu for Thursday, December 7th. Satisfy your Holiday cravings with The Milky Way’s signature Latkes, Psagot Wines from Israel, Sufganiyot Jelly Donuts (house-baked) and their Seasonal Specials. The Hanukkah menu continues for the Eight Nights of Hanukkah (but not on Friday and Saturday in observance of the Sabbath.)
