Passover celebrants will find an unlikely spot to pass the Seder this year: FiDi Italian eatery Perbacco (230 California) is going kosher for its first annual Passover Night (PDF), next Tuesday, April 22. Legendary chef and author Joyce Goldstein teams up with Perbacco’s Chef Staffan Terje for a night of Passover-inspired culinary feats from the pages of Goldstein’s book "Cucina Ebraica: Flavors of the Italian Jewish Kitchen.” With kosher wines paired with scrumptious dishes like Italian-style chopped duck liver (Fegato di Anatra alle Uova Sode), Veal breast stuffed with peppers and an omelet, and Passover hazelnut sponge cake (Pan di Spagna alle Nocciole), this Passover dinner is a far cry from matzoh and bitter herbs. $49 per person. Call 955-0663 for reservations. Space is limited.
