Mercado Central NYC — Local services in New York

Bravo! Mercado Central stepped into heavy foodie territory when it opened mere blocks from the likes of legends like Paisanos and Staubitz. I am Happy to report they have succeeded and in doing so lifted the whole community up by adding one more world class imported Nationality retail food outfit to a world Class list in Cobble Hill! They filled a glaring cuisine gap in the neighborhood. I mean let’s all take advantage of what NY offers which is everything! (in this case being Spain) Congrats to Mercado Central and all good wishes! Thank You for Continuing the great local tradition of offering the best of the world to our dinner tables here...

I LOVE this place. I don’t even care that I can spend a months rent without blinking in there, it doesn’t matter. Walking into Mercado Central is the closest I get to feeling the way I feel in Barcelona, only in Brooklyn NY. Zhanna is a doll, super bubbly personality, knows everything about the Catalan region and stocks everything direct from Spain. My mouth waters just picturing the shop, a tiny representation of La Boqueria. They have Iberico ham, manchego cheese, every canned Spanish ingredient from saffron to stuffed olives, sardines to paella. If it’s Spanish, you’ll find it here. Visit. Try something. You’re...

Try their sandwiches, they dont always have them available though. they use imported bread from Catalonia called pan de cristal. Its like ciabatta but thinner. The tuna sandwich is really good. They also have anchovy stuffed olives which is basically impossible to find anywhere else. All their products are imported from Spain. They have a great selection of cured meats and cheeses as well from spain. They even carry Butifarra sausage which is really not that easy to find. The prices are Not cheap but theyre not overpriced either. Friendly service. They also carry spanish beer and sidra from basque...
