    I ate at Brooklyn Bethel twice, 23 years apart. Both times it was fried pork chops, mash potatoes and apple sauce.

    Their fried chicken was pretty good.

    They had liver and onions on the day that I was invited to eat lunch at Bethel. It was so gross. Of all the different foods that are on this Earth, they had to serve one of the meals that I hate the most. As if the gagging Spiritual Food I had to endure most of my life weren't enough. I should have considered the liver meal an Omen, tucked tail, and ran in the opposite direction as fast as my legs could carry me, but instead I sent them a letter of appreciation for my tour and meal along with a contribution for the "Worldwide Work".x2

    The only favourite meal was fried corn fritters for breakfast made by Joy Madzay. Excellent apple pie by Madge Dunham. Dear Lady. I still make the fritters. The worst were donated Jerusalem artichokes for a soup (sludge). Must have been all off as were the donated peanuts, tasted of fungus.

    We enjoyed breakfast Saturday and Sunday mornings at Cadman Plaza restaurant. Pancakes and real bacon and fried eggs and on Sunday the Times and Daily News.

    apparently in the UK the most popular day for food at Bethel was Sunday evening as they always had chips/French fries on the menu

    Last time we visited it was a vegetarian dinner night.

    Beans.

    Would have hated being around that next day.

    The Cadman Plaza, I remember eating there several times

    I loved when strawberries in season back in the days the WTS grew them.

    Homemade yogurt and ice cream when they still had a dairy.

    Most Bethelites looked at the menu and skipped liver day.

    There was a mexican meal, tostadas?, that were improved when I brought sour cream to my table.

    I ate there several times from 1971 to 1995. Meals were pretty good over all. I liked chicken too even back in the day the WTS raised their own and the Bethel family had to help butchering them.

    I visited Bethel once and had liver and onions, I thought it was good. But I like organ meat.
