Have you heard? Jimmy’s No. 43 has been selected as one of the best gastropubs in the U.S. by Food & Wine. Aside from already having received the Slow Food NYC Snail of Approval, we’re thrilled to be recognized for our diverse menu dedicated to locally sourced ingredients.Now that Spring has sprung, we’re back to shopping at the Union Square Greenmarket several times each week in addition to other area markets. Some of our favorites from our current menu include:
- Fish Tacos – Four days each week (Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat) we meet up with a fish monger for our “catch of the day” direct from Long Island. We typically use cod or flounder, which is currently readily available and as fresh as fish gets!
- Duck from Hudson Valley Duck Farm is the best! Try our spring duck breast served with farro and kale. Better than beef, trust us!
- Cheeses are all sourced from the northeast, with these farmstead cheeses, chosen each week by our friends at Saxelby Cheesemonges. The other day a customer asked, “What is a cheesemonger?” Visit Saxelby at the Essex Street Market and find out!
- Ronnybrook Dairy in the Hudson Valley hand delivers all our butter, milk and cream every week.
Other menu highlights include our buttermilk biscuits, our Charcuterie Plate with salami from Flying Pigs Farm, smoked duck breast, ham from East Village Meat Market and our root vegetable pickles! And for dessert, we recommend our apple crisp or the bread pudding. They’re both to die for!
And if you want to try a sit-down fresh market dinner, please join us for next month’s ticketed “Romancing the Stove” fresh market beer dinner source at the greenmarket day-of by guest chef Annette Tomei (details here).
