What I Learned This Week

That the businesses on rue de Rosier, Paris' most Jewish street are split along sectarian lines, on each side of the street, the Sephardim on the north side, with their falafel and kebab houses and the Ashkenazi dumpling and borscht restaurants on the south. Still no cheeseburgers to be had at Mickey's New York Deli, and only Chez Marianne opens on the Sabbath.
