It’s tough locating quality food markets with a healthy variety of
fresh vegetables and organics in New York City. Amish Market, a “gourmet market
group” with several locations in the city fills the grocery store void in
several locations and provides an alternative to the overcrowded, frenetic Whole
Foods Markets throughout Manhattan.
I stopped at the Amish Market on East 45th Street
recently to stock up the kitchen in my studio hotel room. Beautiful baked goods
and desserts were on display at the entrance along with an array of breads. Fresh brewed coffee and a sweet make Amish Market an ideal spot for a continental breakfast. They don’t bake items there but the onion bread I picked up was fresh and
delicious. Plenty of produce is available along with some organics at
reasonable prices. I was impressed with their collection of vinegars and olive
oils, truffle oil – even avocado oil. A
grocery shopper with a flair for gourmet cooking will everything here, including fresh seafood and meats.
A small collection of fine cookware, chocolates, and food baskets
make the Amish Market a great place to pick up a gift. Hot and cold food bars (about $8 a
pound) in their cafe and a sandwich counter near the entrance are popular spots for lunch or a light dinner.
Amish Market caters parties and also delivers light
breakfasts, lunches and dinners from its other locations. Order online and find
