Kosher options for the Super Bowl in Tampa, FL

For those lucky Heebs attending the Super Bowl in Tampa, Florida, you’re likely to see a great
matchup between the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers. What you may not be excited to find are your options for kosher food. I’ve been doing a bit of research and found that the main cafe / deli that was Glatt kosher is no longer active. I did however find that operating from within the JCC in Tampa is “Sylvia’s Catering”. I spoke directly to Sylvia earlier today and she welcomes orders right now in preparation for those sports – loving, kosher observant Super Bowl goers. She does not have a website up yet, so I figured I’d give her some free advertising here.

Sylvia’s Catering is Glatt Kosher and it is supervised by Rabbi Shalom Adler, the Chabad Rabbi in Tampa, Fl.

If you’d like to order food for this upcoming weekend please contact Sylvia directly at (727) 631-2115 OR Dana (727) 776-6356.

You can have the food available for delivery or pick-up (assuming you’ve got your car rental). I don’t have a menu available, but I gather they will have your standard fleishig (meat) menu.

I recommend calling in as soon as possible, as they are swamped with requests for the big game.
