\"\"<\/a>Caf\u00e9 Emunah<\/a>, the first-ever Kabbalistic lifestyle lounge and tea bar is opening this month in Ft. Lauderdale with a “biblically inspired” menu. <\/p>\n

I quote from the press release: <\/p>\n

Caf\u00e9 Emunah\u2019s modern \u201corganic chic\u201d aesthetic presents diners with environmentally sensitive d\u00e9cor consisting of evocative art, natural woods, large open windows, frosted glass, muted metals, recycled plastics, ergonomic chairs and chandeliers…\u201cEmunah\u2019s philosophy is to offer a haven for the senses,\u201d explains co-founder Dr. Marla Reis, Ph.D., \u201cWe are designed to appeal to diners of all beliefs and faiths. We cater to those individuals who believe in living consciously and welcome those who want to learn how to incorporate this consciousness into their lives.\u201d <\/p>\n

Biblically-influenced dishes such as \u201cinspired miso soup\u201d, \u201cgenesis
salad\u201d and \u201cenlightened encrusted salmon cakes\u201d set the dining tone.
Terminology such as Foresight (appetizers), Revelation (entr\u00e9es) and
Soul Stirrings (drink & tea choices), replace the expected. A sushi
menu titled \u201cAfter The Flood\u201d presents innovative sushi rolls
including Rabbi Rolls, Day 5 and East Meets West. Garden-direct whole
leaf organic teas are proudly served to diners accompanied by
electronic sand timers. <\/em><\/p>\n

It’s all Kosher too. Click here<\/a> to see more pictures of the high concept. <\/p>\n

I generally like to take my chai in the quiet nooks of used bookstores, but I have been drawn to the faith-centered coffee shop concept ever since I first found my way to The Potter’s House <\/a> in Washington D.C. 20 years ago. Gordon Crosby’s<\/a> notion then was that God would be more comfortable in a coffee shop than in most traditional sanctuaries. <\/p>\n

What do you think? Would you drink your “inspired miso soup” and eat your “genesis salad” with gusto at Caf\u00e9 Emunah? Come what may, I’m betting the concept will go national before much more time elapses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
