The Chocolate Café - Dvir Karp Z”L

02

Located right by Kibbutz Magen in the Neve Eshkol Center, the Chocolate Café is very well-known in the area. It was the ideal place to go for a coffee and top-notch artisan chocolate pralines, much loved by locals of all ages and walks of life. In recent years, the café had been co-managed by Dvir Karp Z”L, and Uri Steiner. Karp was in charge of the chocolates while Steiner was in charge of the management per se. On October 7 th , Karp was killed by the Hamas terrorists together with his partner, in their home in Kibbutz Re’im. In the aftermath of the attack, Steiner came to the realization that it would take months to The Chocolate Café, Neve Eshkol Center Chocolate crowdfunding

get the business back on track and that the funds it would require to sustain it would end up being too much to bear. “Since the massacre occurred, many of our customers have told me how much they miss our café and that’s how the crowdfunding idea came about”, says Steiner. A crowdfunding page has been set up, in support of the beloved Chocolate Café, to ensure the café is there when the people of the Eshkol region are finally able to come back to their homes. “I wish to remain loyal to Dvir’s vision and recipes”, Steiner adds.
