That's awesome and I'm really glad for your family. But saying that those who need "fancier" are either rich or should stay home isn't nice. It's not a matter of needing fancier, but if having different idea of how to spend shabbos - in a dining room vs a hotel room, with zemiros and all, places for kids to hang out, shiurim, separate swimming, hot food that's more than wraps, and not having to worry to buy food 2 h before shabbos for half price and worry what, if any, will be left. To each their own, and there are pluses and minuses to each way

Yes, I noticed that the same program has a different price in the ad now...
But it says food catered by glatt gourmet- that’s a pretty good take out store in Lakewood
