Editorial Review for Dean & DeLuca – by Lisa Marie Rovito
The Scene
Dean & DeLuca is the sort of place where people don't think twice about paying $3 for an avocado or $5 for a pint of Ben & Jerry's. The chain's Broadway location is spacious and immaculately clean, populated by an always interesting cast of fashionable Soho types. Purchases are rewarded with a black-and-white shopping bag, one that packs nearly the same punch as that little blue box.
The Goods
Drown your worldly sorrows in glamorous produce, imported teas and condiments, restaurant-tough cookware, breads and pastries from the best bakers in town and prepared foods by the pound. The lovingly displayed selection of cheeses is one of the best in Manhattan, and the coffee is good enough that your out-of-town relatives might start pestering you for regular deliveries.

I went to the store, ordered and espresso, waited while at least 5 other customers who were behind me in the que received their drinks. When I inquired about my beverage, was treated to a scowl finally what appeared to be leftover espresso! Never going back and telling all my friends.
Pros: Good location, clean
Cons: Poor service, poor quality

If I lived in NY I'd want to shop here all the time! However, I think the prices would probably cause me to go bankrupt but I'd sure be in culinary heaven. Everything from the baked goods to the deli foods is mouth watering. The place gets a little too crowded so at times it was tough to navigate through the aisles. There's no place to sit down so if you want to eat some of your food you'll have to stand at the counter along with the numerous other friendly patrons.
