Baltimore Kosher Restaurants

    • For the kosher traveler, finding a quality kosher restaurant is always a welcome help to ease the stress of traveling and provide a filling meal. To be considered kosher, a restaurant must use only ingredients that meet the standards and requirements of kashrut (kosher laws) according to Jewish dietary law and must be supervised by a certified Orthodox Jew. Because the laws of kashrut prohibit eating meat products together with dairy products, a kosher restaurant will serve either meat or dairy. Parve is neither meat nor dairy and includes foods such as grains, fruits and vegetables. Parve foods may be eaten with either meat or dairy. If you are looking for a kosher restaurant in Baltimore, here are a few options to choose from.
