Eataly

Located on 200 5th avenue in New York City, Eataly is a must see destination for any food lover. Owned by famous chefs Mario Batali, Lidia Bastianich, and Joe Bastianich the atmosphere in the store feels every bit how I imagine a European food market would be. A store front that spands over 50,000 square feet, it's jam packed with high quality Italian and specialty food items. 

The moment you walk into to Eataly, you'll realize what kind of shopping experience you're in for. Every where you look you'll see Freshly baked breads, gorgeous produce, fresh butcher counter, an impressive sea food counter, and shelves stocked full of other Italian ingredients. On top of the grocery section there is an expresso bar, a gelato stand, fresh Italian meat and cheese counter, and a cafe to enjoy. Eataly's motto is "we sell what we cook and we cook what we sell." There truly isn't one thing I could think of that this store didn't have.

I enjoyed a tasting board of some of the meats and the fresh cheeses and can say I have never tasted any better. Take my word for it, Eataly alone is worth a trip to NYC.
