The meal that escorts Shabbat out

Why a pizza on Saturday night

Melaveh Malka is the meal that escorts Shabbat out. Rav Shaya'le turned it into a table open to everyone, all night long. We do the same, with what feeds a whole family quickly and hot.

How a Saturday night runs

Families order

Each household orders whenever suits them during the week. No form, no proof of need.

The pizzas are made

A partner pizzeria starts baking the moment Shabbat ends.

Volunteers deliver

Each one takes two or three addresses close to home.

The mitzvah happens, everywhere

On the same evening, hundreds of people keep Melaveh Malka, across eight cities and three continents.

Why pizza

It is quick to make, travels hot, is shared without dishes, and feeds a whole family for the price of one meal.

And it arrives while the house is still tidy from Shabbat, at exactly the hour the meal is meant to happen.
