I remember how excited I was that Chabad at UCI was going to have a Falafel Fiesta! It was not only a great way to meet new people, but it was also a great chance to eat some delicious Falafel with UCI students! It was the perfect break from studying for midterms and getting ready for sukkot!
The fiesta went on at the lovely Hirschberg house where we all got to sit under the sukkah and enjoy some delicious Falafel with our friends. As we all sat under the sukkah not only did we have a delicious meal we got to enjoy and rejoice in the holiday spirit. By the end of the night I had meet many new friends that I could call family because we all have a bond. Being that this is my first year at UCI, freshman could sometimes find it hard to fit in with a certain group but no matter who you are or where you come from you are always welcome at Chabad and that is something I really loved about meeting everyone. Falafel Fiesta was a great success!
This event was co-sponsored by the Hillel Foundation and The Rose Project of the Jewish Federation and Family Services of Orange County
