Purim - the Jewish holiday that is
a cross between the debacle of Mardi Gras
and the fun of Halloween

-  According to an article on
the Top Five NYC Purim Plays + Parties
in this week's  Time Out New York

"On this holiday , you're commanded to get so drunk that you don't know the difference between right and wrong" 

says Amy Golding-Eichenwald,
executive director of the New Shul,
a progressive Greenwich Village Temple
that puts on a yearly Purim extravaganza
that includes professional drag queens,
mixed with congregants dress in costume

- of course you also can't tell
who are the boys and who are the girls

- the costumes and revelry is just that good !!

Complimenting the Mardi Gras meets Persian Palace theme,
CuisinEtc Catering and Special Events 
is delighted once again be the caterer
for this fun packed evening
