Rumor on the street is they are going to close. They have dropped prices massively. Ultimately once the hype started dying down the consensus is that its insane to pay what they were charging. And with the loft opening soon the writing is on the wall

FAKE NEWS.

as with every business, they need adjustments and they have made alot already. in the long run they will be sucessful.

What gives you the confidence to say it with such certainty?

A rumor is just that; a rumor. no need to get all feisty

Was in Seared the other week. Extremely satisfied. Was quite busy even though was already late in the evening. From what I saw-They ain’t shutting anytime soon

It's in my wife's crockpot.

I think you meant "Best commercial cholent in Lakewood?"

Personally, I like Epstein’s meat

Personally, I like Epstein’s meat

Was going to say, totally subjective, but Epstein's, Lipa's, and Nostalgia would be my top 3.

There is a famous bit that is done at a Sheva Brachos:

Friend of the Chosson gets up to speak, says a crazy story about how the Chosson was learning during a hijacking and didn't even realize that anything going on, and how he is such an unbelievable masmid, etc. Then he ends, "Actually, the story never happened, but they don't make up such stories about me or you..."

I don't think anyone thought that the OP was literally looking for THE best cholent in Lakewood. Rather I think he was looking for cholents that people say on them that it's the best cholent...

See my reply to the question, right after my comment.

Personally, I like the cholent @Epstein’s Meat.

You think you know OP, in fact he was expecting someone to provide the results of a randomized double blind clinical study with a cohort of 50,000.

There were some old general threads about this topic but thought would be better to post here.

As (I hope) is by now well known, stores hike up their menu prices on UberEats. These are some of the markup on sandwiches that I calculated, in percentage points and dollars, vs. buying in store or the stores website:


Crunch Time: ~18.5% Markup [$3-4] (Not exactly the same on each but all at about that number.
Nostalgia: 25% Markup [$4-11(Tongue Sandwich:45 UE 56.25)]
Flysh: 30% Markup [$3-7]
Bun Burger: 35% Markup  [$6-9 (French Dip: 28/UE 37.80)]
Glatt Bite: 42.39% Markup [$6-12 (Sino steak sandwich: 26.99/Uber eats 38.59)]
