Judeo-Iraqi Cooking Class on Wednesday, February 3rd 2010
On February 3rd, in an ultra-modern kosher kitchen in the Upper West Side, Guy Halfteck (lawyer by trade and chef at heart) demonstrated several magnificent Judeo-Iraqi dishes utilizing his mother's recipes.
All thirty attendees participated in cooking a sweet-and-sour stew called Turshana, okra made with traditional spices, and kitchrie (red lentils) served with fragrant basmati rice.
Afterwards all found a perch in the lovely Italian lounge, under a sumptuous Murano glass chandelier, to feast on what they had just cooked.
The event was highlighted by Dr. Anwar Suleiman, who spoke about his childhood in Basra, providing colorful slides of the old city with its canals and views of the river Shatt al Arab lined by thousands of date palms.
Everybody left in a great mood, chatting with new friends and holding copies of the recipes.

This five-lane bridge carries 3rd Street over the the former Atlantic Coast Line railroad bed (and now an access road to a Cape Fear Community College parking lot) in downtown Wilmington, North Carolina. It originally opened in 1920 and was expanded in 1955. The two outmost piers are from the widening. The original portion is the NCDOT's oldest bridge in New Hanover County. Today this bridge is in very poor shape, having a single digit sufficiency rating. The cage underneath is to prevent concrete from the 1920 portion from falling onto the access road. The 1955 and 1920 parts of the bridge are of a different construction. The 1920 portion is a tee beam bridge. meaning that the concrete beams and the rest of the superstructure are cast together. The new bridge is a steel stringer bridge, using heavy steel beams for support, like many modern bridges. I wish I knew why some bridges around here use these thin columns. It has to do with the soil, I guess.
