The heart of a Bar Mitzvah event at the Western Wall is, of course, the Torah reading ceremony. That is the center of the day, but before setting out on the exciting journey of this special day, it’s important to pause for a moment, indulge yourselves, and recharge. We provide you with a rich and pampering spread in a Jerusalem atmosphere, so that the whole family begins the celebration with energy and a smile.
This is an occasion for which the celebrating family sometimes brings guests from all over the world, to present to everyone the child who has become a young man in the very heart of the Jewish people – Jerusalem. Because of this, it is very important that the ceremony be conducted according to all the requirements of tradition on the one hand, and on the other hand meet the needs of the family and the guests at the Kotel.
A day on which a Bar Mitzvah is held at the Western Wall is a day packed with activity, walking, and tremendous excitement. It usually begins in the early morning hours, after a long drive, and very often the family and guests skip a proper breakfast due to stress and rushing. The result? You begin the spiritual experience when some of the guests are tired, the children are hungry, and the overall energy level is low.
At JBM, we believe that attention to the small details is what turns a good event into a perfect, worry-free one. That’s exactly why we offer a breakfast and rich refreshments service as part of the event package. Instead of starting the day searching for an available café, we prepare a cozy corner for you in advance, where you can gather calmly, breathe the Jerusalem air, enjoy fresh and tasty food, and enter the festive atmosphere with peace of mind and serenity.
We offer a variety of refreshment options that can be fully customized to your budget and your taste:
Imagine the aroma of fine coffee and fresh pastries welcoming you. This station includes quality coffee, herbal tea, and cold drinks, alongside a rich assortment of fragrant pastries – croissants, warm bourekas, soft rugelach, and crispy cookies. A perfect solution to jump-start the morning.
A colorful and rich mosaic of flavors that represents the local abundance. A generous spread that includes fresh breads of various kinds, a platter of carefully cut fresh vegetables, a selection of quality cheeses, fresh salads, homemade spreads, olives, and more. A balanced meal that will give everyone energy for the rest of the day.
The location is part of the experience. According to the nature of your event, we can serve the breakfast in a variety of special spots:
At a panoramic lookout overlooking the walls of the Old City.
In a quiet, shaded corner in the heart of the Jewish Quarter.
In a nearby restaurant that will open especially for you.
At the initial meeting point, right before setting out on the festive procession.
The location is flexible and is decided together with you during the event-planning stage. The options are varied – from a spectacular lookout over the Old City before entering, to a quiet, organized corner within the alleys of the Jewish Quarter, as close as possible to the Western Wall.
All the products and catering we work with have strict kashrut certificates, appropriate for the nature of the event and the holy site. We can adjust the level of kashrut according to your specific requirements.
