For the past 4 years, he has made steady gains in persuading the team to offer glatt kosher fare. The gains recently led to a goal as the Panthers finally agreed to open a glatt kosher kiosk serving hot dogs, sausages, and knishes. The provider will be Kosher Sports Inc., headed by Jonathan Katz, its president & CEO. The first game with the glatt kosher fare will be on January 8th when the Panthers face the Pittsburgh Penguins.
