Reply To: Milchig Meal on Shavuos

Milhouse – “REALLY? Do ANY Chabd shuls cater to ANY other customs/practices of other Yidden mispallelim?!
Absolutely, if there are enough ballebatim who want it. Anim Zmiros too, if there’s enough demand.”

Ok, I did a bit of FURTHER investigation. I called back some of the Chabad Shuls and asked EXPLICITLY: Do the Chabad mispalalim including the Chabad Rabbi participate in seuda shlishis (or is it just “outsiders” at the seuda shlishis)? Again, the unanimous reply was that “many Chabad mispallilim INCLUDING THE RABBI attend at the seuda shlishis”, the response was qualified, “not EVERYONE attends, but most mispallalim, both Chabad and non-Chabad attend”.

These are the FACTS on the ground. Reality. BTW – I asked about Anim Zmiros and each Chabad Shul that I called said that it is not Chabad custom to say it so they don’t (but one is welcome to say it privately if that is his/her custom).
