Madison Fare: A Gourmet Marketplace That Delights Every Sense

Whenever I’m in NYC I always go to my favorite store Madison Fare. I can’t say enough good things about this vibrant culinary haven. Owned and lovingly curated by Amin Kinana. This gourmet marketplace is a treasure trove of prepared foods, artfully assembled gift baskets, and, believe it or not, some of the most delightful frozen yogurt I’ve ever tasted. All the prepared food is delicious and made by Amin himself who in a previous life was a gourmet chef.

From the moment I step inside, I am greeted by an inviting, warm atmosphere that truly captures the eclectic energy of New York City. The store’s offerings are as diverse as they are delectable…whether you’re craving a hearty, chef-inspired prepared meal, looking for the perfect gift basket to celebrate a special occasion, or just in need of a refreshing scoop of frozen yogurt, Madison Fare delivers with flair.

What really sets Madison Fare apart is Amin’s passion and personal touch. His commitment to quality shines through in every product, and you can tell that each item is selected with care. Amin isn’t just running a store; he’s curating an experience, one that celebrates the art of food and the joy of sharing it with others.
