CATERING

what’s for lunch this week at the office?

We know that variety is the spice of life and that is extra true at lunch time. Think about a platter of sandwiches on Eli’s Bread, delivered to your office a couple of times a week. Think about some cold salads to go with them. Don’t just think about it, call the Catering Department at 212-423-0129 or log in on-line to order lunch for tomorrow.

HAMPTONS DELIVERY

Eli is summering in the Hamptons

…well his trucks are. They are in the Hamptons every day, delivering bread to farm stands and groceries and prepared foods to in-the-know customers. Let Eli be the solution to shopping for quality ingredients, prepared foods, hand-cut meat and of course, Eli’s Bread and pastries. A phone call or an email is all it takes.

Barbecue season has officially begun and all the best grills are sporting meat from the butcher department at Eli’s. Don’t be left out and don’t be left behind. Call 212 423-0129 to place an order for delivery. You can also order online for shipment anywhere in the USA. Hand-cut, your order will travel on dry-ice, never frozen and arrive ready for the grill.

Eli’s Flower Power Team

This is a great time to be outdoors and the Eli’s flower power team, led by Sarah Wright, is right there with you – enthusiastic and knowledgeable, these women are ready to help you make summer one long garden party. Local blooms are one of the great pleasures of the season and this is where you’ll find them worked into bouquets for giving and gifting (and for spoiling yourself with, too!)

For Your Kids at Camp

Summer camp and homesickness go hand-in-hand, especially when missing you is an excuse to get some tender loving care from home. Eli’s Emergency Rescue Basket pleases with its satisfying mix of sweet and savory treats—some to gobble up with friends immediately and some to stash away for a private moment. Is there a better way to say ‘I love you’?

Eli's List

What’s new….

Have you visited elislist.com? The cozy sliver of a shop with the great big, old world wine cellar?  We currently love their interesting suggestions for wines under $25.00.  Excellent choices as we await the arrival of warmer weather. Their point of view is always consistent and engaging.
 

 What's on Eli's Mind

Summer has officially started and a few of the things I’m looking forward to are lobster rolls on toasted and buttered brioche, a butterflied leg of lamb on the grill, fresh lemonade —are your kids having lemonade stands? Make sure it’s fresh, not Minute Maid! All things blueberry and on the hottest days chunks of water melon and cold white wine. What’s on your list?
