Hello!
I founded MetroFresh with the notion that fresh, healthy, and creative food should not be out of reach for the casual diner. With a daily menu of soups, salads, sandwiches, breakfast entrees, “after work” small plates (Uptown), and dinner entrees (Midtown,) MetroFresh uses the freshest in-season ingredients, locally grown and organic when possible, to build unexpected flavor combinations you don’t often find at a fast-casual cafe.
Our mission has always been to create a friendly “oasis” where our guests can take a break from their hectic lives. “People are going to come for delicious, healthy food,” I told my original crew in 2005, “but they’ll come back because they had a great experience.”
You’ll notice alongside the “FOOD” below, a column of “THOUGHTS.” I’ve always believed MetroFresh would succeed because it’s a personal and communal experience. That very first day when I sent out a mass email with our daily menu, I began with a personal story about how I loved fresh food as a child. I’ve started every day after that writing down these random thoughts about food, family, and life. I’ve been doing it as a daily ritual for so many years I figure, why stop now? I hope you enjoy it. And I hope you come see us.
Mitchell Anderson, Founder and Creative Chef

It totally feels like a fall day, which I'm sure will translate into your need for soup! Come see us and have a hot, lovely soup to warm you up. We're open on both sides of the park.
Today is a virtual screening of the second season of my show, After Forever for Out on Film. Many of us in the cast, including my co-star and multiple Emmy winning (really too many to count) actor/writer/producer Kevin Spirtas. are doing a zoom "talk back" at 7pm tonight. If you'd like to join us click HERE for information on how.
Sorry about the no blog situation yesterday. If you can believe it, I just forgot to write one. I was trying to take a few hours off yesterday since I've been working for a few dozen days in a row, and low and behold I got working on something else and poof, it was 3pm and no story from me went out! Anyway, I'm sure you survived for a day without me. Have a great Tuesday!
