proposed menu for synagogue fundraising dinner

So, Sarah and I decided that it would be cool to do a feast in Sarah's synagogue kitchen. They keep milcheg kosher (no meat), but since I have medieval spanish recipes in my back pocket, that would be easiest. The idea is to bring it in around $10 a plate and charge about $25 per plate as a fundraiser-- this would be offered to the synagogue folks and other related persons, not an SCA function.
Tell me what you think?

book reviews

The Death-Defying Pepper Roux. Geraldine McCaughrean.
This slight but death-defying YA adventure has overtones of Le Miserables mixed with Sid Fleischman. Le Pauvre, as his family calls him, has lived his entire life under the shadow of his Aunt's vision that he will die before he is 14. On his 14th birthday, he finally breaks away from home and ends up pursuing a number of wildly divergent and mishap prone careers, taking on several different identities, helped by the fact that "people see what they want to see" but always feeling the fearsome pursuit of saints and angels on his back, come to claim him. Adults will quickly suspect what a kindly if eccentric mentor finally tells Pepper at the end of the book, but the breakneck adventures and the oddly poignant characters and writing will keep you reading.

Goblin Baby. Berlie Doherty.
This first chapter book is a cuddly retelling of the classic theme: older sibling rescues younger sibling stolen by the fairies. Not very substantive, but with a few deft touches. Nice line drawings, too.

The Society of Unrelenting Vigilance. Glenn Dakin.
Subtitled The Candle Man, this is another YA adventure, more than a little reminiscent of Neil Gaiman's Graveyard Book crossed with Theodosia and the Serpents of Chaos. The usual orphan child raised by sinister caretakers, devoid of all human contact; but when he is rescued, things begin to go strangely. For fans of youth gaslamp fantasy. Would adapt beautifully into a videogame. :)

Picky Eater food-- milcheg/pareve

Ok, I'm baffled.
The synagogue is very into doing the dinner, but wants to put it off until fall and do some other stuff leading up to it, which is fine by me.

But someone pointed out that people don't want to go to something where their children won't eat anything on the menu. I understand that, of course; we struggle with it all the time, especially at the synagogue, which keeps kosher, specifically kosher dairy-- so vegetarian and dairy stuff is ok, fish is ok, but no meat.

Miss B. will eat noodles and cheese, which I put on the menu, and olives.
But I'm baffled as to what else to offer for picky eaters.

I know most will eat cheese pizza (we could have some kosher pizza ordered in?) but if they won't eat cheesze noodles... Chicken nuggets, hamburgers, hot dogs are out, of course.

In the SCA, one provides basic finger foods and we manage-- I suppose we could put out some fruit.

Suggestions, anyone?
