    i find it interesting how a lot of safardi rabbis and chachams are wearing european levush….

  • Oyyy veyy

    He wasnt aware of all the politics that store has. I wonder if he still would of go in if he knew….

  • He is a nephew

    For the record, he is a nephew of the Baba Sali married to a granddaughter of the Baba Sali

  • Whose hechsher did he rely on???

    I thought the hechsher on Chocolatte is Hashgacha Protis (self proclaimed kosher by owner) with a quasi endorsement from Mr. Braun. In math, 0 + 0 = 0. So on who’s hechsher was he relying on???
