Did you know that Shavuot, in the original Aramaic, actually means "Festival of Cheesecakes?"
In this most delicious, but often overlooked of Jewish holidays, Hashem commands us to eat at least 4 servings of cheesecake within a 2-hour period.
Those who complete this mitzvah are granted a sneak peek at the Ten Commandments. And just cause they're that nice, the good people at YJP are making it easy for you this year. So come on down to YJP's

While the original cheesecakes our forefathers ate were made of goat's milk and dates, we're lucky enough to have a plethora of options nowadays, what with the new developments in milk technology and whatnot. So be sure to stop by and bring a friend!
