What a different TR. Thanks for doing this!

SanDiego1K - most any Jew would know the prayer. I'm guessing they ask that to trip someone up to say they weren't Jewish.

I remember we stayed in Eilat a few years ago. I was tasked with finding the place for dinner and I promptly refused. Why would I want to take the blame when someone else didn't like the chosen restaurant. A few of us, including my wife, went to the concierge (Dan Hotel) and inquired. Just 10 minutes before I think he was the bellboy. Anyway, we were between a meat place and a fish place. We had a hard time picking and the bellboy/concierge was no help. We finally selected the meat place and walked to the restaurant. As it turns out, the two restaurants were the same or adjacent or something. You could order from either place with no problem. Now why the concierge didn't tell us that?
