APPLEGATE SQUARE
including soups, puddings and kugels,
has brought him into the manufacturing
business, with items packaged and
labeled with his business name.
Some 12-14 employees are lined up
for the week of the opening. Rachel
Hayon, Sperbers' manager, will run
the counter, bringing her food-service
experience and "a public confidence as
a member of the Detroit Orthodox.
community," Linker said. Someone
knowledgeable will be present at all
times, with an awareness of the food
industry and kashrut. Male employees
will wear kippot.
A kosher caterer for 10 years, Linker
directed the staff through "a lot of spe-
cial training," including instruction in
keeping the parve [neutral] and meat
food items separate, and lessons in food
safety, food handling and cleanliness.
The business has its own workstation,
showcase and refrigerator, separate from
the rest of the food services in the build-
ing, with a padlock making it inaccessi-
ble when closed.
With a 40-seat area just outside the
checkout registers shared with all cus-
tomers of Whole Foods, food
eaten within the building will be
served on disposable trays and
eating utensils. A religious wash-
ing station also will be installed.
Sperbers Gourmet Delights will
be closed on Shabbat.
Sperbers' food labels will be
scanned at Whole Foods check-
outs, with no monetary transac-
tions made at the Sperbers'
counter. Linker says he does not
own or rent any part of the
building that houses his business,
and will pay a percentage of his
sales to Whole Foods.
The business was begun with
a minimal investment in staff,
food, serving and packaging
items. Food will be prepared in
the carryout area as well as an
off-site commissary, both certi-
fied by the Wad Harabonim
(Council of Orthodox Rabbis of
Greater Detroit).
Targeting West Bloomfield,
Farmington Hills and
Southfield clientele, Linker is
unsure how many of Whole
Foods' estimated 15,000 weekly
customers would be expected to
purchase his foods.
Although owned by Linker,
the new carryout will use the
Sperber name, he said, "to con-
tinue the tradition of a name the
community knows, and to honor
my in-laws," for whom the cater-
ing business is named.
Milk And Honey
The third kosher restaurant being
constructed within a three-mile area in
West Bloomfield is owned by Matt
Prentice, president of the Bingham
Farms-based Unique Restaurant Corp.
Although Milk and Honey is not yet
ready to open, the associated catering
business at the JCC has its first event
scheduled for March 26.
The affair, to be held in the newly
renovated David and Marion
Handleman Hall and Auditorium, will
be a Jewish National Fund dinner for
350 people.
Prentice says the new business' first
kosher program is a three-week cooking
class that's part of Seminars for Adult
Jewish Enrichment, the edcation courses
that began this week. He says the intent
is to have the kitchen complete well
before the end of March. But with
design, engineering and construction
expected to take until at least the end of
August, delays may postpone the restau-
rant's opening until after the High
Holidays. El
