Holy Bagel Ramot Mall is kosher again

To remind you, in the Ramot Mall in Jerusalem the branch of Holy Bagel lost its hechsher (Rubin) on Tisha bAv due to a customer sitting down for some food in the afternoon instead of it being just open for take out, which would have been ok. The owner claimed it was a misunderstanding, the woman who sat down to drink was a pregnant woman, a wife of an employee, who was overwhelmed by the heat and needed a drink.

The good news is that Holy Bagel in Ramot Mall has received its hechsher back from the Rubin Kashrut organization. After listening to the claims and I guess investigating them, the Rubin hechsher administration decided that the restaurant was not in violation of policy and what the owner claimed had happened is really what had happened and they have brought the hechsher back to Holy Bagel in Ramot Mall.

It is a shame that the investigation only happens after the fact. In the meantime people get hurt - the owner, the person who was surely attacked for eating/drinking not aware of the problems that would be caused, other customers who can't eat there in the interim, and surely others.

But all's well that ends well. The hechsher is back and anybody requiring that hechsher can now go back to their normal routines, ובא לציון גואל.

יאכלו ענויים וישבעו
