In April 2022, Daniel and Leah both signed up separately for a Shabbat cluster dinner group through the DC JCC. Daniel chose to sit right next to Leah when he arrived. Before they knew it, a bottle of wine meant for the table is shared just between them.

As the Shabbat dinner wound down, Daniel made it clear that he was interested in going on a date and they met up at Bar Deco in Penn Quarter the next night.

As they were asking each other questions like "Who did you vote for in 2020?", and sipping their drinks, Daniel's friends crashed the date at Bar Deco. What could have been an awkward situation turned into a night filled with laughs and a deeper understanding of each other.
