The Food Emporium

Profile

Store-made prepared entrees in portion-controlled sizes? Check. A giant collection of low-fat, no-fat, and no-sugar-added baked goods? Check. The Food Emporium has built its empire of stores across the Tri-State area by catering to knowledgeable, discerning consumers in an ultra-convenient supermarket setting, open until 1 a.m. at many locations. While fresh produce, meat, and imported and organic cheeses are available, the premium here is clearly on prepared foods. From the Outgoing Chef heat-and-eat chicken and pasta dishes to the rows of packed salads and pre-cut fruit to the vast freezer cases full of microwave-ready goods, this store is paradise for the professional who wants to minimize kitchen time while feasting on only trusted gourmet brands. To simplify life still further, online shopping and delivery are available in Manhattan. — Jessica Branch
