Do you know the limit of people you can text at once?

Also any other recommendations that can pull the numbers from excel?

Are you looking for a free service or paid?

Capri is fine year round. The tourist leave with the last ferry and Capri remains relatively empty and charming.

+1. Spend the day touring the surrounding mainland and enjoy the evenings there. You should of course leave a day to explore the island itself.

Just Shmooze / Re: Impossible Burger 2.0

« on: January 11, 2019, 02:40:17 PM »

I had the Impossible Burger at Mocha Bleu and contrary to someone's experience above, it was to put it nicely - disgusting. It did not remotely resemble meat in look, taste or texture. Let's just say I would have taken JJ's raw burger over this any day.

To add insult to injury, they charged $3 (IINM) extra for a slice of cheese (the only reason you buy this in milchig restaurant).

It is no more innovative IMHO than the standard parve soya fare that's popular abroad. I think that all the hype is from vegans who are overly enthusiastic about any meat substitute, not carnivores who prefer a piece of meat, but care limited by kashrus restrictions.

I am not getting my hopes up for the 2.0.

Is it still worth going to Windsor Castle just to see from the outside? Will we be able to see the full beauty around?

Not worth going just for the exterior.

I'm staying in Cannes and plan on touring Nice and Monte Carlo. Do you guys recommend renting a car or does taking trains make more sense?

No need for a car. Public transportation is the way to go. There are excellent bus and train links.

Are there hechsharim on coke, potato chips etc? I'm looking to buy snacks and want to know what to look out for.

Very few (non Jewish) brands have a hechsher on them. Kettle chips and Proper corn are the only snacks that you'll find with a hechsher in general stores. Coke and other soft drinks from major brands are generally accepted.

See the wiki for a link to the Kosher list, where you can verify if something is kosher.
