Oh please.

To keep going with the stupidity.  I think that is a good point, dont know what your getting when you order from someone with a hechsher 

[Chaikel]

Oh please.

While you are free to do as you please, there is no reason to knock those that are makpid on eating food with a hechsher

[Friars500]

Oh please.

What??? Really??? Is it such a terrible thing to not buy from people who are in the business of selling food because they don't have a hechsher?

Again every person is allowed to have a their own opinion, but if private people don`t need a hecsher then so don`t the stores.  but you should know that the idea of a hecsher came into place because of problems with the kasrus of certain people (and i`m not talking about todays M$$$Y hungry Bal Hamacshrim) so if you trust or don`t DO AS YOU PLEASE BUT KEEP US OUT OF IT!

well i don`t care what i`m getting because the Rav is going to get the whip! not me! so if you ain`t got a Hecsher you ain`t got someone to take the blame...

He did write may work for you etc. If it works for you then go ahead and just leave him alone and don't attack him.

Does the Waldorf Astoria Jerusalem have weekday minyanim and, if not, then where is the closest place to find a minyan?

I see on GoDaven.com that the closest alternative seems to be at 10 King David Street, Sefardi daily minyan at 7:30 am. Does any one know if that is still correct or other nearby choices?   

[shemaya770]

Does Derby Bar in Tel Aviv have a good hashgacha?

You are right . Wasnt looking to knock.

Is it such a terrible thing to not buy from people who are in the business of selling food because they don't have a hechsher?

No

What's this about? Did he say something wrong, incorrect, scandalous or hurtful?

Was a quick reaction. Said nothing wrong or incorrect (except that i think its not most that do have a hechsher). The reaction just coming from a place where i personally know at least 6 of these catering services wouldn't be חושש for a second. However my reaction is coming from peraonally knowing them so the above comment is very true . Even as an american tourist coming to israel, you cant assume that all these services are top knotch hechsher-wise. I retract my comment/reaction.
