DH has a classmate who comes to us occasionally with his wife and child. It’s a really nice kiruv opportunity. We’ve invited them a handful of times all winter long but it didn’t work with the early Friday’s. They texted before Pesach that it’ll work for them to come the following Shabbos. I wasn’t home 2nd days and Shabbos was almost a full week away from motzai yom tov so I said yes. Now that we’re holding by Wednesday night, I can tell you - I’m def not recovered from yt. Cleaning lady hasn’t returned I’m spending every min that I’m not working trying to finish up the laundry and keep the house semi under control. I’m passing out from exhaustion. I would love to cancel Shabbos but I’m going to try and push myself. I got a cleaning crew to come Friday and I’m going to try and buy most of Shabbos. This is really out of my comfort zone, I never even buy challah! So where’s the best place to go? I’ll make cholent, soup and salad but I need everything else.. mains sides dips challah- u name it..
I’m not sure but probably between Shloimy’s and yapchik you can get everything. Shloimy’s has very good challah and really just about everything. Yapchik has good kugels and meats but if you don’t want to bother going to 2 stores you can really get everything in Shloimy’s. I’ve been there right before shabbos for a forgotten item and was surprised to see people buying the entire shabbos from challah, dips, soup, kugel, chicken, deli....
Depends which neighborhood you live in. If you live near Shloimys/Yapchik, you can get there like the previous posters mentioned. If you live near the South side of Lakewood, I would recommend that you walk into Glatt Gourmet. Everything in the store is delicious and perfect.
I live near Glatt gourmet actually and I go every week for liver and side salads but I don’t get the impression that they have side dishes, but I never paid super close attention

Someone once sent me the entire shabbos from glatt gourmet after I had a baby. It was a few years ago but I doubt things changed.
If you don’t find everything in glatt gourmet, head on to Shloimy’s. Even if you go on Friday afternoon you can still buy everything you need!
