For those of you who are a bit ?in the know� regarding kashrus in Eretz Yisrael, you are aware of the stir taking place surrounding the "unauthorized? hechsherim that have flooded Yerushalayim, the now-famous Kosharot internal bulletin, and the ongoing efforts of Jerusalem Kosher News, which I write.
�
Following the pre-Pesach Jerusalem Kosher News survey on a number of Jerusalem hotels, I am now doing a series on the mehadrin eateries on Luntz Street, including the well-known Caf� Rimon, both the meat and dairy sides.
�
The first posting in the series entitled "Luntz Street Mehadrin Survey? already appears on the website (http://groups.google.com/group/jerusalemkosher/web/luntz-street-mehadrin-survey--part-i---ben-tzion-hagadol), providing information on Ben-Tzion HaGadol grill meat restaurant.
�
Later today, Thursday, I hope to post the comprehensive report on Rimon, the meat and dairy restaurants.

�
Perhaps encourage your children, especially those coming to learn in Eretz Yisrael this year, to sign up, permitting them to decide where they will eat in a particular restaurant based on understanding what is going on, not just on relying on signs, many of which are not as reliable as they may appear.
�
We are working in this non-profit effort towards enabling the kosher consumer to eat and enjoy without compromising one�s kashrus standards unknowingly.
�
I would like to add that this effort is intended to educate the kosher consumer, not to render a judgment on any one eatery over another. I feel it important to note that when the word "unauthorized? appears, it is not subjective classification, but it is based on the ruling of the Chief Rabbinate of Israel, which is the legal body entrusted to make such a decision.
