@thankyouhashem: How does a kosher pizza shop stay open for nearly 40 years? Ask Mark Weiss. Since opening Dairy Palace with his father, Mark has become much more than a pizza shop owner. He’s built a place where generations of Staten Islanders have come to eat, connect, and feel at home. Outside the restaurant, he volunteers with Hatzalah and lives by one simple philosophy: Don’t be a taker. Be a giver. His advice? Ask Hashem to give you more opportunities to help other people.
