FirsT Place
solomon schechter day school
of Bergen county
Solomon Schechter Day School of Bergen County (SSDS) is a nationally accredited
Jewish day school (three-year-olds through eighth grade) that cultivates independent
thinkers and the next generation of global leaders through an inquiry-based educational
approach. Our school integrates a rigorous dual curriculum with Jewish values-based moral
development, and provides a warm, nurturing environment guided by award-winning
educators. Now in our 45th year, SSDS is the first Jewish day school in the tristate area to be
officially authorized as an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School for the Middle Years
Programme (MYP), joining a short list of three Jewish schools in North America and six
public and private secular schools in New Jersey to achieve this prestigious accreditation.
Schechter is also the first Jewish day school to tailor this gold-standard educational
framework to its Judaic studies curriculum, creating a uniquely Jewish experience for
students to connect their Jewish learning and values to the world around them and turn
their learning into action. Schechter’s newly expanded STEAM (Science, Technology,
Engineering, Art, and Math), Design Thinking curriculum, and the September 2018 opening
of a fabrication lab featuring emerging technology and traditional hands-on tools, will
empower students to develop into globally minded Jewish leaders and life-long learners.
We also offer innovative programming such as the Suzuki violin method and chess in
pre-kindergarten, an organic teaching garden, musical theater and yoga in our music and
dance studio, a research-grade Zeiss microscopy lab for scientific exploration, and a digital
library media center for Holocaust Studies. Schechter is the only area Jewish day school
to be accredited by the New Jersey Association of Independent Schools (NJAIS) and the
Middle States School Association. To find out why “Everyone is talking about Schechter,”

BUTCHER Cedar Market


FIRST PLACE
Cedar Market
Cedar Market, which celebrates its 5th Anniversary this summer, offers kosher
consumers a one-stop market for all their shopping needs. “We receive fresh
hand-selected produce daily direct from the local market,” says Manager Oscar
Cuevas. “We price our produce very competitively and our deals cannot be beat.”
The in-house bakery bakes fresh pita, challah, cookies, and more, including a
wide variety of mouthwatering pastries. The meat department, winner of The
Jewish Standard’s Best Kosher Butcher award for five years in a row, exclusively
carries Black Angus American Beef and the freshest poultry, delivered daily.
Their skilled butchers will custom-cut anything you’d like. Choose from over 100
rolls at the supermarket’s spectacular sushi bar or have the sushi chef make you
anything off the menu fresh while you wait, including their new poké bowls
and sushi burritos. The best part? It’s buy two rolls and get a third free — every
day! “Our mindset is to bring the convenience of everyday food shopping to the
consumer, while offering them a significant savings each time they visit,” said
owner Jeff Hollander. “We strive on excellent service, quality and availability. Our
team is fully in tune with our customers to make their shopping experience an
enjoyable one.” The store offers delivery to many locations in North Jersey and
most recently added delivery to Riverdale and the Upper West Side. In addition,
customers have their own loyalty card for cash-back rewards. “We are here to
give back to the growing community,” Mr. Hollander said. “We are constantly
focused on providing great savings on everyday and specialty items, allowing
our consumers to get more out of their shopping trips.” Cedar Market now carries
fresh rotisserie chickens and a variety of delicious rotisserie chicken wings. Stay
tuned for the upcoming launch of their e-commerce website, where you can
shop for the items you love, from the comfort of your couch. Be sure to follow
Cedar Market on Instagram (@thecedarmarket) for exclusive flash sales, contests,
new products and more!

river Edge diner & restaurant
George Siderias grew up in the diner culture. The 100-year-old River Edge Diner in River
Edge has been in his family for 45 years. So it was a challenge and a labor of love to take
the venerated eatery and bring it into the new millennium. To that end, the River Edge
Diner underwent a massive renovation and reconstruction. “We took it down to the steel
beams,” said Mr. Siderias of the 2017 project. The result? A new, yet warm and diner-like,
restaurant that now features an outdoor patio, party rooms that can accommodate up 120
people, a phenomenal bakery and a bar. “We will never forget where we came from,” said
Mr. Siderias, who notes that the coffee comes from the same company for the last 50 years.
When the diner went new, Mr. Siderias also rolled out new menu items alongside the tried
and true dishes. The diner has stepped up several notches, not only in its look and additional
amenities, but in the newfangled menu items that offer a modern spin on the traditional,
like pot roast with sirracha and carmelized onions. Sure, you can still get good old pot roast,
and breakfast at 9 p.m., but there are now even more choices to satisfy customers old
and new.
