Eating at Limmud:
Tea and coffee: To enjoy the coffee cart, you need to buy a coffee cart bracelet each day for $6 at the registration desk. This will give you access to coffee and a pastry throughout the day but please note, one drink and one pastry per person at a time to make things move quickly and smoothly. Free tea and coffee will be available from two urns in the western building - as long as there is hot water.
Lunch offerings: Salads, sandwiches, and warm pasties, and drinks are available for purchase in the courtyard between 11.45am and 2.45pm. These are supplied and packaged by All Things Equal and production is supervised by Kosher Australia.
