GALLERY: Rosen JCC’s Great Latke Cook-Off 2016

Rosen JCC Executive Director Joel Berger was a one-man show while cooking his classic latkes.

Rosen JCC Assistant Executive Director Eric Lightman served taste-testers his latkes, topped with a signature Sriracha sauce and scallions.

Rosen JCC Executive Director Joel Berger and Chief Financial Officer Nancy Portello thoroughly enjoyed cooking and eating the latkes.

Watercrest of Lake Nona Chef Manny Navarro used potato shavings rather than gratings in his latke recipe.

Danielle Lehrer and Lita Weinberg had homemade applesauce to go along with Weinberg's latkes.

The judges — Yael Miller of Ooga Ooga Cake Art, writer Rona Gindin, chef Gary Appelsies and Rabbi Hillel Skolnik — loved each latke they tasted.

Previously reigning champ Linda Nelson (left) worked hard with Kristina Armstrong (center) and Stacy Gerstenblitt (right) to churn out all of their latkes.

Jennifer Jacobson, VITAS Community Liaison Sally Kopke, Gloria Green and Lori Levine showed off the various latkes on their plates.

Rabbi Hillel Skolnik announced the winner of the judges' choice latke.

Rabbi Hillel Skolnik presented judges' choice winner Rosen JCC Executive Director Joel Berger with a “golden frying pan.”

Jennifer Jacobson and Lori Levine presented people's choice winner Rosen JCC Assistant Executive Director Eric Lightman with the “golden utensils.”
