Foragers Table – WHERE FARM TO TABLE NEVER TASTED SO FRESH
Whether you’re an NYC local, or just visiting for fun, if you find yourself wandering the streets of Manhattan, do yourself a favor and pop into Foragers Table for one of the best farm-to-table experiences the city has to offer. You may recognize this concept from the success of its sister store previously located in Dumbo.
Established in 2012, Foragers Table is a full-service eatery connected to the Foragers Market of Chelsea. The Foragers Market proudly offers high-quality ingredients by sourcing seasonal organic produce and high-grade meats from small local New England farmers and artisanal producers. Most of the products offered in the market are craft-orientated operations. Foragers Market founders are extremely passionate about their sourcing. They have established their own farm in Columbia County, New York. Here they plant a wide variety of organic vegetables and raise free-range hens for eggs. Their guiding philosophy of offering the freshest, healthiest, and clean groceries from trusted framers and artisans is the basic ingredient to what makes the Foragers Table restaurant so delicious.
Newly directed by Executive Chef Olivier Palazzo, this restaurant is restoring the energetic culinary vibe of the heart of Chelsea. Palazzo has effectively refreshed the meaning of a ‘modern-Mediterranean’ menu through his embodiment of newfangled ideas, international reach, and an inclusive mindset. Palazzo’s culinary approach is a clear reflection of the social movements that we see actively growing inside of New York City.
Born in West Africa and raised in the South of France, Palazzo’s ultramodern take on plant-forward dishes speaks to nourishing the mind, body, and soul. Palazzo works closely with local Hudson Valley vendors to find the highest quality resources to deliver a seasonal dining experience that combines a mix of French, Italian, and Israeli flavors.
Open nightly for dinner, this charming concept rotates its seasonal menu every three weeks. Their hyper seasonal ingredients encourage regulars to return to try what’’s new and attracts novice diners alike. Their thoughtful wine list offers natural, organic, and biodynamic labels hand-picked from the market’s wine shop. On weekends, you can gather your friends and family to enjoy a delicious brunch. The locals lover their Ricotta Pancakes, Waffles with Nutella and Fresh berries, and Soft Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Salmon. Some brunch staple menu items include the smoke salmon tartine topped with a fresh Alderfer Farm egg, rosemary currant scones, and farmer- ground whole wheat waffles topped with seasonal berry marmalade & house -made bacon jam.
