Question

A yeshiva student in his year of mourning for his deceased mother eats with his peers at the yeshiva dining hall throughout the week. Is it permitted for him to go out on Friday night to eat cholent with those same friends at a restaurant?

Answer

It is forbidden, but if it is necessary for his mental health, he should consult a sage. He is permitted to eat with his father and brothers.
