BEN'S KOSHER DELICATESSEN RESTAURANT & CATERERS
Condolence Catering and Coordinated Shiva Service


Shiva is a time for mourners to express their sorrow and offer comfort upon the passing of a loved one. After the funeral, mourners “sit” shiva at the house of the deceased for a period of seven days. During that time, visitors often provide food to the bereaved to free them from cooking.

When a shiva order is placed at Ben’s for aparticular location, a coordinator is immediately assigned.* The Ben’s coordinator will work to ensure that a variety of foods are delivered to the shiva location, that deliveries are spread throughout the shiva period so fresh food arrives daily and that interruptions caused by deliveries are minimized.

Ben’s offers a wide variety of traditional foods for the seven days of shiva. In addition to the cold cut platters and hot, homemade Kosher meals listed here, our “Catered Foods” brochure offers dozens of additional choices, including finger foods and lighter fare. Ben’s staff would be pleased to help with these arrangements.
