Chic grocer checking out Hudson Yards
A Brooklyn-based grocer with a three-star Michelin restaurant is in serious talks to open in Hudson Yards.
Brooklyn Fare, an upscale supermarket for urban hipsters, already has a Midtown location nearby at 431 W. 37th St. that’s home to one of the city’s most expensive eateries, Chef ’s Table At Brooklyn Fare. It prices a tasting menu with 12 or more courses at $330 per person, including tip but not tax and drinks.
Sources say the new concept for One Hudson Yards, by the High Line, will be more affordable and accessible in a giant, 12,000-squarefoot, indoor-and-outdoor space that will combine a grocery store with a restaurant.
One Hudson Yards’ broker, Ross Burack of Winick Realty, declined to comment, as did Related Cos.
