633.0. "European Pesach???" by COGMK::MALMBERG () Mon Feb 06 1989 10:51

    I may be going to Europe the week of April 24th.   I'll be in Valbonne
    for 2 days, then in Reading, England.  I need to figure out how I
    can keep Passover.  Assuming there are local kosher restaurants,
    will any of these be kosher for Pesach?  I am not rigorous, so whose
    supervision is not an issue for me.  I've traveled with many boxes
    of matzohs in other years, but I will feel more comfortable if I
    know what to expect.  
    
    Yours,

633.1Nice and London .....TAVENG::CHAIMThe Bagel NosherTue Feb 07 1989 02:4417
While you are in Valbonne you can try getting Pesach provisions at the Au Roi
David restaurant on 9 Rue Clement-Roassal in Nice (about 20 kms. from
Valbonne). The phone there is 93-87 65 25.  

There is also a hotel in Cannes that is Kosher and I would assume be open
during Pesach. It is Hotel Acapulco on 16 Boulevard d'Alsace. The phone there
is 93-99 16 16.

I don't know of anything in Reading proper (Malcolm, is there
anything...???...), but I'm sure you can get Pesach provisions in London
(either in Golders Green or Stamford Hill). There is also a "hotel" (more like
a boarding house) in Golders Green which serves meals. It is called Avia and is
located at 350 Finchley Road. The phone is 01-794 67-56 or 794 79 15.

Have a "Chag Kasher V'sameach"....

    Hi Meredith,
    
    While in Reading you won't find any kosher Restaurents. The 
    Shul has a shop which opens Sunday morning and one other evening
    during the week. 
    
    London is very close (door to door by car shouldn't take more than
    1 hour assuming your're not at rush hour). 
    
    For accomadation there's always chez moi. In the past I've only
    been in Reading for chol hamoed but this year I don't know. 
    I've survived with one Pesach saucepan and paper plates. 
    
    At the least I'm sure that I could help you by taking a pesach order.
    That will save you from shlapping it across the pond!
