Since I first explored the Essex Market in the lower east side in 2003, it has come a long, long way. What was once something that seemed like a mere collection of bodegas beneath one roof is now a fully developed, full-service, funky group of specialty markets.
Ann Saxelby Cheesemongers pioneered the move into the market in 2005, and now people like Kenny Shopsin are following.
Our favorite recent arrival is Tra La La, a juice bar and muffin stand. The Blue Monkey is by far the best blueberry-banana muffin the Dish team has tasted. Arrive at almost anytime to find the muffin makers pulling a fresh batch out of the oven.
Wash it down with any of the fresh-juiced fruit and vegetable combos for the freshest start in the neighborhood.
When I click on your RSS feed it throws up a ton of strange characters, is the problem on my end?
