Grand Central Market launched a new delivery service this week, where it’s entirely possible to get a stuffed strawberry donut from Donut Man, chop suey from China Cafe, or fried chicken from Lucky Bird in a single order, and have it delivered.
Once an order comes in, a designated GCM staffer walks throughout the historic food bazaar to collect food items (which can be from one or all 25 participating vendors), wraps it up, and walks it over to a driver for delivery.
The Grand Central Market team researched this workaround well before the pandemic began. The delivery program’s timing could be a new lifeline for these businesses, as indoor seating and visitation is restricted and very limited due to health department guidelines. Order through ChowNow.
