JFS Cookbook Club at Malka West Palm Beach

Join us for an intimate fireside chat series featuring celebrated Jewish food authors in conversation with JFS Founder, Naama Shefi. Each session includes a signed copy of the featured cookbook, themed bites from Malka's kitchen, and a welcome drink.

2/9 Beejhy Barhany, author of "Gursha," and chef/owner of Tsion Cafe in NYC will kick off the series. Tickets for the March events will be released in the coming weeks.

*Malka welcomes guests of the Book Club to stay for dinner after the Book Club event. Reservations via Resy can be made here.

Beejhy Barhany is a distinguished chef, author, and cultural bridge-builder who uses food as a universal language to connect communities worldwide. Her pioneering cookbook, Gursha: Timeless Recipes for Modern Kitchens from Ethiopia, Israel, Harlem and Beyond, made history as the first Ethiopian Jewish cookbook from a major American publisher and was recognized as one of The New York Times' Best Cookbooks of 2025.
