Western Kosher Homemade Challah
Western Kosher sells other brands of challah and they make their own. Go there on a Thursday or Friday and get a fresh challah for Shabbat – you won’t regret it.
Schwartz’s Pretzel Challah
The most pretzely pretzel challah in town belongs to Schwartz’s, which is available at their store and bakery as well as local kosher markets. You can have it with your favorite dips or perhaps some mustard if you feel like spicing things up.
Lenny’s Casita Homemade Challah
Lenny’s Casita has a fine selection of Shabbat takeout at the Shabbat Shuk. While you’re there, pick up a yummy challah as well.
Got Kosher’s Olive Challah
Got Kosher the restaurant may have shut down, but the bakery is still going strong. Their olive challah is delightful, especially when warmed up and served with olive tapenade.
Trader Joe’s Challah
At $3.99, the Trader Joe’s challah is easily the most affordable challah in town. It’s also perfectly soft and tastes great post-Shabbat when you make some challah French toast with all the leftovers. Pick one up at the Beverly or Culver City locations.
Bibi’s Challah Dough
Bibi’s not only sells challah; they also sell challah dough that tastes homemade. If you’ve ever gone to someone else’s challah and it tasted amazing, their secret ingredient might have been Bibi’s challah dough. If you’re ever in Bibi’s before Rosh Hashanah, make sure you order their special apple and honey challah – it’s incredible.
