'Zimmes' or 'Tzimes' (Cyrillic spelling) is a well-known Jewish (kosher) restaurant in the old Podil district of Kyiv/Kiev, advertising itself with a banner depicting a Hasid and a pot of the eponymous foodstuff proudly strung right across the main Sahaidachnoho street - I wonder whether the restaurant in Stanislaviv / Ivano-Frankivsk is a new venture for the same (Jewish female) owner?

Mimi,
We certainly do not support antisemitism.
As we assume the Hotel is Jewish.
The text on the shield says Zimmes.
The caricature is there to attract customers.
Nice or not this nose is a Jewish stereotype feature..
It helps tourists find the right hotel and restaurant.
