Enter 19 Charles Street, the Manhattan-based gourmet food delivery service that brings great ingredients and nourishing recipes to your doorstep. This genius new company has a special place in my heart, as it was founded by my lovely friend, Dawn, and her husband Brandon. I remember when 19 Charles Street was just an idea, and I'm thrilled to see all the success it's having.
The idea is simple: 19 Charles Street delivers delicious, high-quality food to people who love to cook but simply don't have the time to shop. They work closely with local farms and gourmet purveyors (like Murray's Cheese, Blue Ribbon Bakery and Raffetto's) so that customers get top-notch recipes with some of the best food available. You can also purchase tasty extras on the site, like alessi sea salt and organic olive oil. I know--genius.
To order, simply sign up, browse the current week's menu, select your servings and when you want to get cooking. The order will be delivered to your doorstep the following week (Monday-Wednesday). Each meal comes with a recipe card and all the required ingredients. Best of all, nothing takes longer than an hour to prepare.
I loved making their baked breaded chicken with collard greens and a turnip puree. 19 Charles Street has taken the guesswork out of creating a gourmet meal, and most importantly, they are super responsible about the food they provide.
As of now, 19 Charles Street delivers throughout Manhattan and to most parts of Brooklyn. But I sense they'll soon be taking the country by storm.
Here's a peek at this week's menu:
Braised chicken breast with rainbow chard, crimini mushrooms and pan-fried sunchokes
Sausage risotto with baby broccoli rabe and Parmesan
Lightly breaded filet of sole with toasted pine nuts, spring onions and green salad
Croque monsieur mac & cheese with a green salad
