"an informative take on a subject that is still very much evolving."
"In Search of Israeli Cuisine is an unadulterated foodie delight"
"Roger Sherman has done it again. He's crafted a film that balances the short, rich history of the Israel with 150 cultures that either came or never left, where home cooks are saving their grandmothers recipes and chefs are re-creating them.
He also gracefully shows us that the conflict is ever present,
even at the table."
- Ken Burns, Two-Time Oscar Nominee
