    My friend is looking for a place to get shiva food --in the Northwest suburbs, around Algonquin. Its pretty much a desert out here--any place anyone can think of ? There is the Polish Deli on Algonquin, Ive heard they have good food. I dont think it needs to be kosher...thanks.

    Kaufman's delivers, and they do a nice job of it, too.

    We ordered from Kaufman's this summer, and it was very good -- and the quantities were huge -- Jewish mother quantities. (The one thing that was not so good was the chopped liver -- we wondered if we had gotten calves liver instead of chicken liver somehow.)

    Once upon a Bagel in Highland Park and Once Upon a Grill in Northbrook also do trays. Both are good (the salads (tuna, chicken, egg white) are both restaurants strong suit) and they are cheaper then Kaufman's fwiw.

    Kaufman's is excellent, but there is a very good deli in Buffalo Grove that might deliver to Algonquin based on the size of the order. We get corned beef, rye bread, bagels, etc. from them often. However, we haven't tried the lox and other fish. You may want to give them a call.

    If it turns out you do need a kosher shiva tray the following places are kosher and do a nice job - Bagel Country, Hungarian Kosher Foods in Skokie, the Kosher Deli at the Jewel on Howard in Evanston, the Jewel on Deerfield in Highland Park or Kosher Korner in the Garden Fresh Market on Skokie Blvd in Northbrook -

    Sunset also puts together a nice shiva tray and/or meals for the family other than on funeral day. The new Sunset in BG may deliver to Algonquin.
