Thanksgiving dinner isn't complete without dessert! 🥧 Our holiday menu has three beautiful and delicious pies for you to choose from: Chocolate Tahini Swirl, Sweet Potato with Homemade Fluff, and Unorthodox Apple. Can't pick a favorite? We're selling these by the pie AND by the slice, so you can try them all! Order online for pickup in Cambridge or Brookline on 11/26 or 11/27.

Democracy depends on everyone raising their voice for what matters. Go out and VOTE today! Once you've done the deed, feel free to come drown any anxieties in matzah ball soup 🫠

Mamaleh's has your Thanksgiving needs covered! 🍁 Our full menu is now available for pre-orders through our website! No Thanksgiving would be complete without Confit Turkey or side dishes like Stuffed Squash. If you've got room for dessert, may we suggest the Chocolate Tahini Swirl Pie? Everything is conveniently packaged in take-home containers so you can reheat and serve it all on your own dining table. Let us do the cooking for you!

Last weekend, we had the honor of celebrating our second Mamaleh as she read from the Torah for her Bat Mitzvah.
We are filled with NACHAS for our GOLDA who did an amazing job and is already enriching the community with her positivity, intellect and joy.
We love you, Goldileh, and are so proud of your accomplishments and the person you are growing into.

This Halloween, we're going for delicious instead of devilish. We've got all the normal nosh AND our spooky strawberry and black sesame Rice Krispie Treats! Halloween will be extra scary if you miss out on this special, so don't wait!

Trick or TREAT! 🎃 Just in time for Halloween, we've baked these gooey browned butter Rice Krispie Treats speckled with black sesame seeds and freeze-dried strawberry chunks. This spooky special is available Wednesday 10/30 and Thursday 10/31. Grab one today... they're frightfully delicious! 👻

If there's one thing that we pride ourselves on at Mamaleh's, it's that when we find kind, wonderful people to work with, we do our best to hold on tight for as long as possible.
Dunia Acevedo is a perfect example. Today marks 10 years that she's worked by our sides. She started as one of the most hard working and determined dishwashers at State Park. Over the years, we pulled her over to Mamaleh's, taught her how to make matzah balls, blintzes, latkes and more food that she had never heard of. Pretty soon, she was working all of the stations and teaching new cooks how to do things best. Now, she's the Savory Production Manager at our new commissary kitchen, leading all the prep cooks on making wild amounts of food for our 5 locations.
Dunia has been with us through our pregnancies, her pregnancy, celebrated birthdays and special moments, muddled through the pandemic with us, brought in family members who she's taught to work the line, all with grace, unmatched strength and toughness, generosity, and the most beautiful smile.
She's stuck with us through both good and challenging times, and we are grateful every single day to have her in our lives - from a work standpoint and also personally.
Gracias, Dunia, por todo. Te apreciamos más de lo que podemos expresar con palabras. 💗💗💗

How It’s Made: Rugelach Edition!

The bite-sized treats originated from the Jewish
communities of Poland. The Yiddish meaning of the
word rugelach is “little twists”. Although these pastries
look like croissants, they are closer to a cookie in
texture.

Traditionally, Rugelach are stuffed with a sweet filling
- we make ours with raspberry & walnuts or chocolate.

We’ve also dabbled in savory options! *Try our Spinach-Mushroom Rugelach available on our dinner catering menu!*

We even offer Rugelach at our vegan pop up

FRIDAYS ONLY! A Shabbat must have: Braided Challah! Break bread on Friday evenings at home or use it to make sandwiches all weekend long (pro tip: it's great from French Toast!). Pick one up for yourself while we've got 'em in stock - you don't want to have to wait 'til next week!

We know this summer weather is confusing in October, but we’re pretty sure it will actually get chilly soon 🙃 and you’re gonna want to be prepared!
Come grab one of our NEW crewneck sweatshirts modeled by our wonderful manager Josh!

🥯 Wear a bagel on your heart and a pickle on your sleeve as you show your Mamaleh’s love! 🥒

And yes, we can ship these babies!

Here to remind you that IBBERGERBLIBBERNIS is a word and a great move for Sunday dinner 😂

Keep enjoying that sunshine!

It’s going to be a beautiful, sunny weekend to eat OUTSIDE! ☀️🍁 Join us for a Carrot Lox Sandwich on the Mamaleh’s Kibitz Corner patio.

It’s 100% Plant Based - Carrot ‘Lox,’ plain Violife cream cheese, onion, tomato, and capers on a homemade bagel. Open 9am ‘til 3pm all weekend long!

There's a chill in the air, the leaves are changing.... that means it's officially soup season!! Order a bowl of matzah ball soup to enjoy for lunch OR buy a quart of frozen soup to reheat at home.

[PRO TIP: We offer Bubbe's Broth in a coffee cup to go when you need a little something to warm up on the go. It's literally just a hot cup of chicken broth to sip on! A sweater weather staple.]

We’re regrouping today after quite a busy stretch with the High Holidays!

First, a big THANK YOU to everyone who ordered food with us. It warms our hearts to know how many households Mamaleh’s gets to feed over the holiday season.
Second, a moment of appreciation for our fantastic, dedicated staff!! We truly wouldn’t be able to do it without an incredible team behind us. From ordering ingredients, to prepping food, to packing it up, to delivering, and everything in between — we rely on SO many sets of hands to get these orders out the door.

Feeling so much GRATITUDE this high holiday season, to put it lightly!

Now (briefly) back to business as usual before Thanksgiving and Hanukkah - wish us luck! 🤪

💫 Wishing all those observing a meaningful Yom Kippur 💫

For anyone HUNGERIK today (fasting or not) we are open regular hours in and

*Please Note* if you are planning to order pickup or delivery from us to break your fast tonight PLEASE place your order ahead! We’re doing our best to stay ahead, but things are always tight on these busy holidays and the pre-order really helps us manage counts and timing 🙏

G’mar chatima tovah!

Uh oh. You're going to start fasting for Yom Kippur this evening - have you thought through your plan for what to eat once the fast is over?? You're gonna be too hungry to think straight!

Imagine if there was a place you could go that would serve you a beautiful all-you-can-eat spread of all your break-fast favorites, conveniently placed out as soon as the sun sets and your fast is officially over. Think: bagels and schmear, blintzes, latkes, nova lox, babka, knish, fruit…….. the list goes on.

And guess what? That fantasy is a reality at our Break-FEAST event! Join us Saturday, October 12th at 6pm. We’ll do all the work, just reserve your space via so you don’t miss out! And don’t worry, we won’t judge you if you come hangry.

Not fasting but love celebratory break-fast tradition? You’re welcome to join too! All are welcome, including kids! Follow the link-in-bio to book your spot NOW!
