<div><div>The first point to bear in mind is that if a </div><div>family has a particular minhag vis-a-vis </div><div>kashrut, any supervision that you rely </div><div>on while in Israel should meet that same </div><div>standard. Furthermore, even if your family </div>

<div>Both these points relate not only to relying </div><div>on a particular hechsher or restaurant, but </div><div>also eating in someone else’s home.</div><div><br></div></div><div><br></div><div>--- is this gebnerally true, you cant eat at another's home who has different minhagim?</div>
