Taste of Grand Central Market

100 years ago, the founders of Grand Central Market never anticipated that the market would be all about prepared foods versus ingredients to cook at home. And in the last few years, the changes have been unparalleled with new food stalls opening regularly. With all the new excitement added to long-time mainstays, navigating the 38 stalls (23 of which are new arrivals in the last 3 years) can be a challenge. What to order and from where?

Secret City is here to help! Join us at our Taste of Grand Central Market as we navigate and sample from vendors new and old. The flavors will be worldly, and the insights will be, well, insightful. This 90-minute, dinnertime feast will give you a mental cheat sheet for many return trips to this hallowed food hall.
