E. 48th St. Market Description:
Ex-New Yorker Charlie Augello parachuted from the corporate world some 20 years ago and opened this gem of a market, naming it in memory of the small shops his uncles ran on the Big Apple's East Side. Today he makes a good muffaletta using his own bread anointed with garlicky olive salad. Besides sandwiches, there are hot dishes that can be enjoyed at a table or on the screened-in sidewalk space; choose among meatballs in tomato sauce, lasagna and eggplant Parmesan or a lovely pasta salad. Cooking at home? Pick up an aromatic tiny tub of truffle-mushroom paste to daub onto your fresh pasta. Olive oils, cheeses and deli meats grace the retail side. Augello offers a six-unit wine-by-the-glass dispenser to allow patrons to enjoy a glass of wine with their lunches.
