Chef Raz Shabtai addressed the win with excitement: "I grew up in Jerusalem, surrounded by amazing flavors, spices, and foods that told stories," words that were quoted in Kol HaHadashot in 🆃🅴🅻🅴🅼🔴. He added that his ambition was to bring the Jerusalem feeling "not only for the local Jewish community, but for all of South Florida."
