We had the good fortune to be one of several local restaurants serving food at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway this week.  In the photo is Kelly, Tracy (myself), Allison, and Jennifer, a portion of the catering staff of Shapiro's Deli in Indianapolis and Carmel.  The event was the BRICKYARD BASH.  Thanks to all who stopped by and enjoyed a corned beef sandwich, delicious garlic pickle, and a gourmet cookie!  We had fun and hope we will get to meet more of the local corporate movers and shakers by bringing lunch or dinner to your next meeting or function.  Have a great Brickyard weekend and don't forget we are here to make boxed lunches, party trays, or whatever else you need for a fun racing weekend.brickyard bash

KOSHER CATERING IN INDIANAPOLIS

Sunday, October 17, 2010 by Tracy Fiddler
Shapiro's Deli is highlighted in The Indiana Jewish Post & Opinion, October 13, 2010 edition.  The following is the article in its' entirety:

Shapiro's Deli Catering Division has initiated a new concept at the Park Regency Senior Living Facility in Indianapolis.  Jay Slavin, Catering Manager at Shapiro's Deli, reached out to the facility administrators, who were excited to add Shapiro's Night to their monthly social calendar.

On the first Tuesday of every month, residents choose some of their favorite items from the Shapiro's Deli menu.  They can invite family members or friends to join them for a great meal from the well-known deli.  Shapiro's brings in their popular sandwiches, hot comforting entrees, and mouth-watering desserts for a dinner that brings back fond memories.  Many residents have spent their lives in Indianapolis, where Shapiro's is a kosher-style dining landmark.

This concept is really catching on and growing in popularity.  Every month the participation is growing and Shapiro's plans to add other independent living facilities to the calendar as well.  Shapiro's Catering Division is focused on bringing their unique dining experience to the community.  Visit their website at www.shapiros.com.

EVERYBODY KNOWS RUSSELL

Wednesday, July 29, 2009 by Tracy Fiddler

If you've ever been to the Indianapolis Deli you surely have seen Russell in the front window cutting our meat every day.  Russell has been with Shapiro's for......ever it seems!  We found out today Russell is going to have some bypass surgery.  We wish him a successful operation and a quick recovery!  He has been working in the early, early morning for many years now.  No one can cut meat for our meat case like him.  He is hands down the best meat cutter in the restaurant.  If you ordered a party tray, Russell cut the meat.  If you had a catering order, Russell probably cut your meat.  If you came in for breakfast, you probably got a "Good Morning" from Russell.  If you came in to pick up bagels, Russell took care of you.  Everybody think good thoughts for Russell!  Hopefully he will be back in the front window of Shapiro's soon.
