Very, very briefly:
Rosh Hashanah, or “Head of the Year,” is the Jewish New Year, starting at sunset and continuing for two days. On Rosh Hashanah, Jews attend religious services and celebratory meals. Rosh Hashanah also marks the beginning of the Ten Days of the High Holidays, which conclude on Yom Kippur.
The High Holidays fall in either September or October.
I was quite hungry in Paris on my first Sunday there, because the only markets that are open are teeny-tiny Arab-run markets with very little food. All markets and many restaurants are closed. The upscale ones (some are open), well, just too expensive for me.
