Ritz-Carlton Herzliya (AKA Ritzaliya) Master Thread

Speak to the mashgiach. All the breakfast food was mehadrin, except the jelly.
Meats were mehadrin as well, although the sauces weren't

Meats are beit Yosef and not mehadrin and don't think the chicken is any better. if request in advance they usually have  meat from harav machpud which is a much better hechsher.
But it's wtvr u r comfortable eating and your LoR says is acceptable

Mashgiach told me the were. Maybe was a miscommunication. Didn't eat meat either way

@rileywiles23 You are here now?
I spoke with the mashgiach last night and he told me that the meat is not Glatt..
seemed like an honest guy.. can’t imagine him saying different things.

Anyone know a caterer for Shabbos food?

I get from Rivkin in Kfar Chabad. I believe there are also a few places in Bnei Brak.

This post should be moved to the Kashrus/Hechsherim master thread. Seems to be proving a point I've been saying for a while, that the word Badatz or Mehadrin is at best MEANINGLESS, and possibly even a reason to avoid!

first of all you can pre-order glatt, and you can always eat chicken

I was there shabbos and had glatt

Thanks for the info, I think I’ll do this even though I was so looking forward to eating at the hotel.

Going to be staying here with 2 kids for 3 nights over Shavuos for a family bar mitzva nearby. Currently have standard room with points booked. Debating whether I should get a card (Platinum or Ritz) over the next 6 months to have gold status and hope for an upgrade or to contact someone now to ask about paying for an upgrade. Any recommendations?
Also, can someone share the contact info for manager or concierge
Thanks

I am platinum, stayed for one night, and front desk manager refused to upgrade, eventhough almost every suite was open for that night.
