Kedma means
eastward

It is the direction of the kitchens Chef David grew up with in Haifa, and of the way KEDMA cooks today: vegetables at their season, breads and spreads made by hand, meat over live fire, and long tables where everything is passed from guest to guest.

קדמה

Kedma, Hebrew: eastward. Also forward, progress.
