Chelsea Market, NYC - by Paulo Braz on Google
Description
Chelsea Market is a multi-purpose complex, in the Chelsea neighbourhood of Manhattan, principally known for its food hall. There, visitors can find a wide range of produces and restaurants, from fishmongers and butchers to tacos, Italian cold cuts, and coffee shops. Trivia: this is where the Oreo cookie was invented by Nabisco
Access & Transport
The market is in the meatpacking district / Chelsea, between 15th and 16th streets, immediately south of 10th avenue (there is a connecting pedestrian bridge) By bus, take the M11 bus down Ninth Avenue and get out between 15th and 16th Streets. The closest underground station is '14 St / 8 Av' (A, C, E, L), just 300m away.
Instructions & Recommendations
We suggest combining this activity with a walk along the High Line, and a visit of Little Island, Greenwich Village and for those with cultural inclinations, the Whitney Museum of American Art is a 5mins' walk away.
Environmental & Social
No environmental / sourcing data and emphasis doesn't seem to be on small producers
Conclusion
A good place to check out and browse through when in the area but we would not suggest a significant detour for the sake of eating there as you can find the same type of fares scattered throughout the city. Can be good for families / groups who really do not fancy eating the same thing on the day
