First-ish Friday | 13 November 2026

Join us for an Italian Summer First-ish Friday, where the warmth of Shabbos meets long tables, lemons and la dolce vita.

We’re kicking off summer with a special musical Kabbolas Shabbos followed by an Italian-inspired Shabbos dinner. Think spritz on arrival, generous graze boards, comforting Italian mains, and lemon sorbet.

First-ish Friday is more than dinner. It’s a chance to step away from the week, connect with Sydney’s young Jewish professionals, and welcome Shabbos in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

Whether you’re coming with friends or meeting new people, you’ll find meaningful conversations, incredible food, and a community that’s always happy to save you a seat.

No previous Shabbos experience required.

For young Jewish professionals aged 21–35
