Just went to check out other Shoprite locations at their website. Brooklyn has only one!!! It’s located between flatbush /boro park/kensington section of Brooklyn. the next 2 closest ones are both in Staten Island.
Brooklyn19, Pickled herring in cream sauce is pretty good. (Especially, the Honey Mustard pickled Herring by Pomegrante, but this should be in the Fave Food thread) We took the kids a few years back to the Homowack for the weekend. My Eldest son(who was 9 at the time) ordered the pickled herring in cream sauce, the waiters couldn’t believe he ordered and liked it!!!
Really, squeak, where is there another shoprite in brooklyn, besides Mc&I?? I thought it was the only one in Brooklyn.
Qwertyuiop, yeah, there was alittle olive dip left over. If you want they have full size containers for sale, which we bought. Finished that container in no time, went back to buy more. It was great with Melba toast. There was Honey mustard picled Herring, that wasn’t too shabby either.
SJSinNYC, you do have some Sephardi blood in you!! Alot of “Ashkenazim” are really from Spain. As jews, we moved around alot. I was at a class with R’Berel Wein a noted, jewish Historian, who said even his own family originated from Spain and ended up in germany,( I think that is the country he mentioned at that class I went to,which was 15-20 years ago)
yes intellegent, that is the same Shoprite – on McDonald Avenue and Avenue I. There is a Amazing Savings store in that Shopping Center.
ames- lebanese huh??

When we went to pomegrante, last week, they had some sampling of their dips. Oh boy, I went with my hubby and 2 of the kids. We had not eaten dinner yet. Oh boy, I could not get them away from the table. They were munching like crazy. I took the cart and left them!! The lady serving the sample must have been rolling her eyes. My husband (and myself) highly recommend the Olive Dip.
Oh yeah?? I like gefilte fish with a bissel Chrein then I have my Bamia with Rice. Like I said before, I am a half-breed and quite proud of it. so is my hubby.
Hey let’s go Motzei Shabbos and meet Surfer. Oops, I forgot, got a party that night.
okay, I was merely defining what Hazeet means. What nebbach is in yiddish and what miskein means in Hebrew = Hazeet. Syrian, I understood what it means, but most people here don’t understand SY Lingo, so please explain when you use it.
mod, u missed my post about Hazeet to Syrian. My above post doesn’t make sense with out it.
Your welcome, Just went shopping there this evening and thought I’d spread the word. They were very busy tonight though.
Beacon, you mentioned you love cheese at the begining of the thread. I went to Pomegrante last week. Oh my goodness, they have a wide variety of Chalav Yisrael cheese. Olives, Port wine, Blue cheese, mozzerella. Can’t remember them all, but they sure looked good. Oh, and don’t go shopping there on an empty stomach.
Joseph, are you Hungarian? My Grandmother was from Debrecin. Maybe we are related??!!
You’ve just met someone whose Ashkenaz mother of Hungarian/Polish Parents learned to speak fluent Arabic. My mom speaks Yiddish, Hungarian, Hebrew, Arabic, English, & Spanish.
Tips- Shoprite is having their CanCan Sale this week. Ronzoni pastas are selling for 54 cents. Canned Veggies, like beets, corn, variety beans, potatoes etc. are 4/$2.00.
Cherrios, Honey Cherrios, Cocoa Puffs, are 1.77 a box. Clementines boxes are $3.99 but the shoprite in brooklyn, clementines were mushy so becareful when selecting. Poland springs water bottles are $3.88 for a case.
You re-opened the thread?? I have a random question. What is exactly is the decaffinated coffee listed at the top of this page all about??
Curious- thanks for the welcome banner- I guess you were able to collect enough tips. LOL. :]
You are all forgetting about the Tehina, tastes even better.
Tawil means Tall in Arabic- Wow there are so many syrians. You are taking over the CR. My husbands grandparents were from Syria.
some people bake kibbe as well, but it doesn’t Not taste the same as a fried kibbe, Nothing like a hot, fresh, fried, Kibbe. It is absoulutely heavenly!!
Isn’t it kind of hard to sit at the Beach with a Gemorrah with ladies not dressed properly??
I wouldn’t say a million sects in the syrian sephardi, Turkish, Moroccan, Lebanese, Persian, Egyptian and Syrian From Aleppo and Syrian from Damascus.
Landau’s is yeshivish. They have a diverse group of speakers. I am not all that familiar with who speaks, but they have had R’ Paysach Krohn speak a few weeks ago and other Rabbonim on various topics. Anyone know who is giving Shiurim at Landau’s in the next few weeks and give Yisroel more info??
moderator….#…..

Well, after this long galus, I think we’re all mixed up!!!
squeak, I was actually thinking of football when I was typing those numbers, are you a mentalist??? I was thinking “HIKE” You are scaring me.
Wow, arguing about not arguing. Rabosai/Rabotai = Next!! Please change the topic.
You are not the only one, Rosh Yeshivah. So 55, are you a She???

I guess you may consider some people part of nature, but animals do what Hashem intended them to do. People have free will. I think it is in insult to the animals to compare people to animals. Call them savages if you must!!!
I always tell my kids, “I don’t care who you marry, as long as they are jewish”. I got a little of everything in me, maybe I should change my name to … any suggestions??
Rosh Yeshiva,He’s syrian sephardi, not syrian Rabbi.
Who say’s you can’t be all the above? My father is from the Mideast whose forefathers were from spain(Sephardi) My mother’s parents were from Hungary and Poland(Ashkenaz & Chassidish. (My mother was born in Germany after the war and lived in Israel for a time and then came to the States) I have the best of everything.
I am all the above as well. Half/breed.
So exactly how many Mods are there?? These numbers are confusing. 55, 72, 99, 86. Who likes the coffee and who had too many doughnuts??
Where is 86??? anybody see him around lately? YW Moderator-72
Well I hope no new Mods’ start using the number 77. I don’t even want to be a Mod.

While,I always checkout Shamash.org website for Kosher places, I wish they would update the Restraunts more often. Like if the place closed down, Shamash should write that the establishment is no longer there. It is only good when other people review/update the information on it’s website and let others know. So, if you do go out to eat, let others know of any new kosher places or if they aren’t around by reviewing or updateing new info to shamash.org/kosher. You’ll be doing other a chesed.
Landau’s is the Minyan Factory in Flatbush. Forgot to daven Maariv/Arbit?? it’s 1:00am!! Have no fear- you’ll find a minyan here, and then some.
Yashrus20 – don’t feel so bad, I didn’t get a proper welcome either. So anyway, I ‘ll welcome you to the CR. WELCOME, WELCOME, BARUCH HA-BAH YASHRUS20!! Maybe Curious can write a big welcome banner to all newcomers.
