Nogga in Balaclava is opening its doors on a Friday time treating our guests to what's set to be a mouthwatering five-course pescatarian banquet.

Making the night extra special, as part of JNF's green week of events, we have joining us live in person from overseas a very special guest: Sinai Gohar Barak - International Ecosystem Development Manager
