This time we are not meeting west of the Valley but rather in the Valley, specifically Kubbeh Cohen in Woodland Hills. This kosher Israeli restaurant features deli sandwiches and typical Middle Eastern food, but it is best known for its delicious Kurdish Jewish stews known as Kubbeh, dumplings made of finely chopped roast meat and then placed in a vegetable soup. My family has a long tradition of making this meal and despite all the ethnic cuisines that are to be found in L.A. this is the only restaurant in the city that I know to be serving this food. Kubbeh Cohen is at 21765 Ventura Boulevard just east of Topanga Canyon in the shopping center with the Ralphs. RSVP to Kedem Har-Shalom at kedem524@yahoo.com or at (805) 330-1731 if you plan on coming.
