On a chilly evening earlier this week in a spacious Tribeca loft, Susan Alexandra-branded Haggadahs and vibrant Seder plates lined two long tables set with glorious glassware—all flanked with extra savory pickle brine martinis accented with cherry tomatoes. We were there to enjoy the traditional Seder dinner to celebrate Passover: the seven-day festival that marks the liberation of Jewish people from Egyptian enslavement.
While the chefs were busy cooking in the open kitchen and the scent of food wafted through the air, Frank sauntered around the room and had guests read aloud the different items featured on the Seder plate and what they each represented. An egg for the circle of life and rebirth. An olive branch for peace. An orange for inclusion. She granted us words of gratitude and explained the meaning of the different cups on the table .
