Passover at The Sagamore Hotel South Beach goes Gourmet
Food is an intrinsic part of most holidays and Passover is no exception. Preparing a Seder meal is overwhelming for many, but The Sagamore Hotel South Beach offers an alternative to observing the sacred Jewish holiday. Let us do the planning while you experience community and a sense of connection by indulging in a catered gourmet meal. Celebrate Passover (Pesach in Hebrew) with The Sagamore Hotel South Beach this April as we sit down with friends and family for an unforgettable two-night ceremonial dinner at our signature restaurant Canvas. From matzo to matbucha, we’re keeping it kosher.
“The Seder nights... tie me with the centuries before me.” - Ludwig Frank (1874–1914)
Observed for seven days in late April, the main event of the Passover holiday is Seder, a ritual festive feast that is shared while Haggadah (the re-telling of Exodus) and related writings, prayers, and songs are recited to commemorate the freedom of the Jewish people from slavery in Egypt. Leavened products are left off the menu to immortalize the Jewish people’s hastened escape from Egypt, from which they had no time to wait for their bread to rise.
The ancient idea of celebrating two Seders is practiced so that observing an extra day of Yom Tov (the first day of Passover) could be accessible to everyone. In addition to the April 19th dinner, The Sagamore Hotel South Beach will honor the sacred occasion by repeating the Passover Seder on the 20th with a new menu beginning at sundown.
“Freedom is within our grasp, and Pesach reminds us that we need to reach.” - Bradley Shavit Artson
The Sagamore Hotel South Beach is infusing ancient tradition with South Beach style. Tradition is our key ingredient. The meaningful Seder menu helps us illustrate the tale of Exodus and connect with our forefathers. The kosher buffet dinner will include matzo ball soup, gefilte fish (which symbolizes the hope of redemption and the fish the Israelites ate in Egypt), matzah falafel, assorted Passover cookies, and so much more. The multicourse meal price is $190 per head (with a reduced rate if you return on the 20th), $99 per child under 12, and free for children ages 4 and under.
“The Exodus from Egypt occurs in every human being, in every era, in every year, and in every day.” - Rabbi Nachman of Breslov (1772–1810)
