Celebrate Hanukkah with foods from these 5 Phoenix restaurants

A celebration isn’t complete without food to make it truly memorable and special. And Hanukkah, the eight-day festival that takes place Dec. 14 to 22 this year, is definitely no exception.

With traditional staples like latkes and sufganiyot, or complete feasts that feed a crowd or a party of one, Valley restaurants are providing just that. When it comes to procuring Hanukkah eats, these five establishments are ready to serve.

Miracle Mile Deli

4433. N. 16th St.
Make hosting a breeze with Miracle Mile Deli‘s complete Hanukkah family dinners, serving six hungry guests for $245. Choose either 3 pounds of the signature beef brisket or oven-roasted turkey breast and gravy as the main course. Both menus include six potato latkes, applesauce, sour cream, matzo ball soup, baked macaroni and cheese and six fresh challah kaiser rolls. It also comes with a whole pie. Choose from apple, cherry, pumpkin, pecan, lemon meringue, Boston cream and coconut meringue.

If an individual dinner is more your speed, opt for a plate of beef brisket or oven-roasted turkey, one potato latke, a cup of matzo ball soup and Noble rye bread and butter for $24. A la carte dishes are also available, including a variety of salads, soups, bread, latkes and desserts.

All options will be available from Dec. 13 to 22. Don’t feel like leaving your car and heading in to pick up your order? Just ask and they will bring it out to you.

Chompie’s

Multiple locations
Skip the stress with a complete to-go meal from Chompie‘s that serves four for $99.99. The brisket dinner features 2 pounds of brisket with gravy, or go for the herb-roasted chicken dinner that includes four chicken halves. Both feasts come with plain challah, a dozen mini potato pancakes with applesauce, roasted tricolor carrots, matzo ball soup and a dozen assorted rugelach and cookies. Desserts will also be available for purchase.

For those who prefer an individual dinner, single servings are also available for takeout and dine-in orders ($21.99) from Dec. 14 to 22.
