We said goodbye to the following restaurants this past year - over 60 places (and I am sure I missed some, please comment below if you know of others).

Some were shockers and long time establishments. One may say it was not a good year for kosher restaurants (and the last month has been pretty brutal) but my next post will be all the new restaurants we had in 2018 and more to come in 2019...

IN CELEBRATION.... Restaurant Openings of 2018 and more to come in 2019 (which ones are you excited about?)

As you will see below, this year has indeed been a banner year of kosher restaurants - close to 100 have opened and are surviving. Yes, "survival" is probably the best way to describe the kosher industry with many of their obstacles. Restaurants are expanding, opening more locations...
