Question
Dear Rabbi,
I ask a Shaila if the Mitzvah of the Festive meal and increasing in foods on Rosh Chodesh can be fulfilled at a kosher restaurant? I want to be stringent and honor Rosh Chodesh properly with love for Hashem always. Thank you, Rabbi, for your help and kindness

The Shulchan Aruch designated a chapter (419) especially to emphasize the importance of eating something extra on Rosh Chodesh. The Mishna Brura adds that although there is no requirement to have a meal with bread, nonetheless having a special meal on Rosh Chodesh is certainly praiseworthy. There is no reason why one wouldn't be able to do so at a restaurant.
