Bon appétit!
It is a rare month when Steve Peljovich from Michael’s Deli in Brookline is not going the extra mile for his community. Whether it is raising money to support fellow cancer survivors through Relay for Life, sharing his Cuban-Jewish heritage and recipes as part of Jewish Arts Collaborative’s Taste of Israel event, sending sandwiches and other support to medical workers and other community supporters, or keeping ties with his athletic friends by supporting the Shawn Thronton Foundation, it’s amazing that Steve has the time to make his world-famous sandwiches, knishes, and his mother’s famous meat loaf!
Just when you think Steve would not have an ounce of energy left when he eventually heads home after another long day of serving others, however, he has come up with yet another way to support his friends and neighbors!
While other restaurants are making their bread through third-party delivery services (like South Street Diner is through Uber Eats), Steve is hand-delivering his hand-made food to people in Needham, Newton, Brookline, and Wellesley with no delivery fee and just a $30 minimum. So not only can folks enjoy Steve’s amazing food, they also get to see his smiling face and feel a bit more connected to at least one of the many people who are working so hard to help them and all of us get through this crazy time.
If you ever happen to be near Coolidge Corner, be sure to stop by and say hi to Steve. If you live near him, be sure to ask him to return the favor. Either way, you will surely feel more connected and more satisfied!
