{"product_id":"the-dairy-restaurant-ben-katchor-9780805242195","title":"The Dairy Restaurant","description":"Ben Katchor retells the history of where we choose to eat--a history that starts with the first man who was allowed to enter a walled garden and encouraged by the garden's owner to enjoy its fruits. He examines the biblical milk-and-meat taboo, the first vegetarian practices, and the invention of the restaurant. Through text and drawings, Katchor illuminates the historical confluence of events and ideas that led to the development of a \"milekhdike (dairy) personality\" and the proliferation of dairy restaurants in America, and he recollects his own experiences in many of these iconic restaurants just before they disappeared. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePART OF THE JEWISH ENCOUNTERS SERIES\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ben Katchor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0805242198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780805242195\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Schocken Books Inc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 496\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/06\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2020 pg. 110","brand":"Ben Katchor","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44045376094463,"sku":"9780805242195","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_74279cf3-3dab-4e51-8a7e-568ec62ca347.jpg?v=1684978378","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-dairy-restaurant-ben-katchor-9780805242195","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
