Our catering service includes kosher style food service for Shiva and providing sympathy baskets that reflect the tradition of Shiva.

The kosher foods we provide conform to the rules of the Jewish religion. The first month of the Jewish calendar, Tishri, is highly regarded by the Jewish people and within this month, they celebrate a number of holy days to give respect to the proud history of their people. The struggles brought about by their faith are commemorated by having the Passover and the other holy days following that occasion. Our catering service in Fort Lauderdale offers a menu that will fit your unique food service needs. There are dietary restrictions that limit the kind of dishes that can be prepared for these types of occasions.

We go the extra mile for our clients and present wonderful dishes that do not compromise on flavor and quality. Our respect for our clients extends to the food we serve for them and this is evident in the precise cooking techniques we use in our food preparation and cooking.

Our restaurant in Fort Lauderdale is known for the best-tasting sandwiches and salads. Since these dishes are well loved in our dining establishment, we are also offering them in our catering services. When our clients require custom menus for Jewish occasions, we include kosher dishes in our menu that respect traditional Jewish food guidelines. If you are looking for catering services for Jewish events and special occasions, then Tower Deli will provide a full kosher menu for you. We have catering coordinators who specialize in providing food and dining services for Jewish traditions.

We have catered for various events such as Shiva, bar mitzvah and bat mitzvahs. The Shiva which involves mourning for the loss of a loved one, requires a seven-day period of grieving. Traditionally, there are a lot of restrictions for mourners during Shiva. For example, mourners are not allowed to go out of their homes. They cannot attend work and do business during this period. They are also not allowed to talk about the deaths of other people so that they may solely focus on their own loss and hopefully cope with the death of their loved one. Preparing and cooking food using heat is also forbidden.

This is why visitors who want to offer their sympathies to the bereaved come calling laden with prepared food. This is considered a good deed or mitzvah. The visitors state the customary words for sympathy which allows the grieving family to talk about the deceased. Visitors can then talk about the deceased and usually tell each other stories about him or her. People use this time to cope with their grief or to escape from it. Surrounded by family and friends, compassionate gestures involve bringing food to the Shiva home. The prepared food is given to the mourners so that they may eat. This also helps as the bereaved will not have to be bothered with the mundane task of food preparation and cooking. Visitors usually do not partake of the food unless the mourners offer it to them. Tower Deli is the only catering service in Fort Lauderdale that understands these traditions and aims to preserve them by providing food that suits Jewish customs and practices.

We offer a kosher menu which consists of a variety of dishes that can suit the palates of your house guests. Our menu consists of an array of finger foods and awesome food platters. Some of our clients prefer hors d’ oeuvres like canapés and other artfully presented finger foods that are normally served for cocktail parties. We have beautiful trays that are filled with different kinds of cheese and fruits. Imported and domestic gourmet cheeses are presented in lovely wicker baskets for a more elegant presentation. Crackers or bread cubes accompany this gourmet cheese fare.

Tower Deli completes your Jewish traditions and customs by offering fare that conform to the occasion. We offer Fort Lauderdale catering that coordinates the theme of the occasion to the kosher menu we serve.
