KOSHER STYLE JEWISH FOOD IN INDIANAPOLIS

Saturday, December 10, 2011 by Tracy Fiddler
Shapiro's Deli is proud to be one of the TOP TEN DELIS IN THE COUNTRY according to USA TODAY.  This is the place to go if you are looking for well known Jewish style food.  Start with our one-of-a-kind corned beef, cooked early every morning in a huge kettle until it is just right.  Servers hand trim the meat and it is sliced for you as you order.  Pair this with our warm Shapiro rye bread, hand sliced.  Potato pancakes (latkes) make a perfect side dish.  Some people like them with applesauce, some with sour cream, and some with nothing at all.  You might also want to try our cabbage borscht or matzo ball soup.  The mazto balls are made from scratch and are everything you would ever want in a matzo ball!  How about a chopped liver sandwich?  It is quite popular on rye bread with a slice of onion.  Step over to the bakery counter and sample the Rugulach.  This hand-made pastry is available in apricot, raspberry, chocolate and cinnamon.  Most folks order a variety because they are all so delicious!  If you are looking for the best place to nosh, look no further than Shapiro's Deli in Indianapolis and Carmel, Indiana.

TO MARKET, TO MARKET TO BUY A ???

Sunday, June 6, 2010 by Tracy Fiddler
Finish that sentence with your choice of products sold at the STADIUM VILLAGE FARMERS MARKET!  The first Tuesday market was a great success.  This week there will be even more vendors and the produce section will continue to grow as producers are able to harvest.  I personally sampled lavender and lemonade artisan marshmallows, the fruitiest wine I've ever had (and it was amazing), whipped cinnamon honey, and some spectacular milk chocolate.  Here are a few photos of the opening night.  The market will be open on Tuesdays from 4:00 to 7:30 p.m. right across the street from Shapiro's Deli on South Meridian Street in Indianapolis.  Of course, we'd like you to stop by the Deli and see why we've been the granddaddy of deli's in Indianapolis for over 100 years.  

That is our pastry chef, John Poulsen, in the second photo (Smith Winery).  In the third photo is Ed and Teresa Stites (Artisano's).  Teresa is the market master for Stadium Village Farmer's Market.  See her if you have questions about being a vendor.

LOOKING FOR JEWISH FOOD IN INDIANAPOLIS?

Saturday, February 27, 2010 by Tracy Fiddler
We currently have Mandel Brot, which means "almond bread" and is actually a twice-baked cookie loved by Askenazi (Eastern European) Jews.  Similar to Italian biscotti, this is a delicious treat, but it is made with flour so it is not suitable during Passover. 

We are also offering Hamentashen, which is traditionally eaten during the Jewish holiday of Purim.  Hamentashen is a three sided pastry, which we have filled with either apricot filling or poppyseed filling.  These are absolutely delicious. 

Passover items have arrived!  The shelves are stocked with your Passover needs, both at the Indianapolis deli and the Carmel, Indiana deli.  Stop by and shop in our carryout department while we have everything you need.  Everything is on the shelves, so when it's gone, it's gone! 

Stop by and see us downtown from 6:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. daily, or in Carmel until 9:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday, 8:00 p.m. on Sunday. 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Monday, November 23, 2009 by Tracy Fiddler

Shapiro's Deli will be closed on Thanksgiving Day.  You can still enjoy your favorites from Shapiro's in Indianapolis or Carmel, Indiana if you pick up your goodies on Wednesday.  The cooks and bakers are already busy (just like the elves in Santa's workshop) preparing your annual favorites.  In addition to our Complete Turkey Dinner, we are wildly popular at Thanksgiving time for our baked goods.  We have a huge variety of pies, including traditional pumpkin pie.  Go to the Pastries & Desserts section of our website, www.shapiros.com to check out a full listing of pies and cakes.  Pre-ordering is recommended.  We can do a lot with 24 hours notice!  We are thankful as a company for our loyal customers who make us a part of their annual Thanksgiving tradition.  Enjoy the day!  We will be open again at 6:30 a.m. on Friday morning cooking up our kosher style food for your shopping weekend.

SOMETHING YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT SHAPIRO'S DELI

Sunday, June 21, 2009 by Tracy Fiddler

Reubens?  Of course.  Corned beef and pastrami?  Well known.  Matzo Ball Soup?  None better.  But did you know we have the best bagels anywhere around?  Upward of a dozen flavors, Shapiro's locations produce fresh baked bagels every night.  Bakers are literally clocking in at midnight to prepare the day's quota of bagels for our Carmel, Indiana location, our Indianapolis Restaurant and our wholesale customers.  Yes, we sell bagels to quite a few local establishments.  Bet you didn't know that! 

Why are our bagels the best?  Traditionally bagels are boiled but at Shapiro's Deli they are steamed, which produces a much better product.  You won't have to worry about a tough, chewy bagel.  Ours are light and delicious.  Not to mention bigger and better! 

If you are like the rest of us who have no time for breakfast, check out our Pastry Tray at www.shapiros.com.  Treat your co-workers to a bagel or Danish from Shapiro's.  It will make your whole day a little brighter.
