Part of Eli Zabar

While the name Zabar is synonymous
with smoked fish and the
quintessential New York brunch,
Eli Zabar envisioned a different kind
of food store from his family's West
Side landmark delicatessen. Inspired
by the food halls and markets of
London and Paris, Eli's has become
an institution on Manhattan's Upper
East Side, directly across town from
the store and home where he
grew up.
