How it works
Two options run in parallel. Guests can join the community for Friday night dinner and Shabbos lunch at the Chabad house, sitting down with the shluchim, local families and other visitors; reservations are requested in advance. Alternatively, Chabad prepares complete Shabbos meal packages to take away — Friday Night in a Bag and Shabbos Lunch in a Bag — which can be collected from the centre free of charge or delivered to any hotel on the island for a flat fee. All orders require at least 24 hours' notice, and the cutoff for a given Shabbos is Thursday at 12:00 PM. Packages are ready for collection from 4:00 PM on Friday.
Times
Order desk open Monday–Thursday 12:00 PM–6:00 PM, Friday 11:00 AM–2:00 PM. Thursday 12:00 PM cutoff for Shabbos orders; packages ready from 4:00 PM Friday.
