Midtown NYC

Upscale Kosher Butcher?

Noticed this little nugget in a New York Post article about charcuterie this morning: Le Marais, a Kosher Midtown restaurant on 45th btw. 7+8th has a “full butcher shop inside” featuring a “a mildly spicy jerky”. $15 for a 1/4 pound is waaaaay too pricey for me- but I’m intrigued by this butcher counter.  Anybody been?

    I have seen the butcher counter several times, on my way in and out on the occassions of having dinner there, but have never purchased from it. I have always wanted to buy from there, but it is an expensive way to buy meat. It is a very cool looking counter though, right next to the bar

    In terms of kosher meat in New York City, the first and last word is: http://www.fischerbros.com/

    The meat is very good, high quality. It’s the high quality and usually steep kosher prices, plus the butcher’s expertise, that you’re paying for.

    My boss had us pick up an order for him once. A 2 lb roast was $115! It’s kind of vulgar if you ask me…
