Trivia Maven, collecting Jewish songs about food from the Pale of Settlement to the East End and East Side and beyond, Tony Zendle takes us on an unforgettable trip along those musical memories.. 

Throughout history music has been used to express our culture, and food has formed an integral part of Jewish Song for centuries

This talk is a compilation of some brilliant and well loved songs together with how they reflected the values of their era, and how they fitted in to the Jewish Story.
