New Mrs. Green's Offers "Deli Meal Deals" at Lunchtime

Mrs. Green's has opened for business in Tarrytown and is offering an impressive array of fresh and frozen food products, dairy, meat, seafood, produce, organic breads, pastries and nutritional supplements. 

It also provides shoppers and the area's work force with another alternative for take-out lunch such as brisket on rye or my choice today, corned beef on rye.

The selections for lunch include a "Deli Meal Deal" consisting  of a entrée and two sides. The choices are:

  1. Grilled chicken breast, $7.99
  2. Tamale. Black bean, chicken, beef or pork, $6.99
  3. Vegan quinoa burger, $7.99
  4. Meatloaf. Roast turkey or roast beef, $9.99
The sides include 'hale to kale" salad, grilled organic corn on cob, steamed broccoli, green beans amandine, whole wheat pasta and roasted potatoes.

It wasn't crowded when I visited Mrs. Green's on Monday morning a little after 11 a.m. Rain, falling heavily at that time, undoubtedly was a factor. Only two cashiers were working at the exit to Broadway. There was very hardly any room for people to stand on line to check out and no clue as to where one was supposed to stand. A third cashier showed up but took a new customer instead of one of the few people already waiting. 

My cashier dropped a vegetable on the floor as she was packing, picked it up and bagged it. The corned beef in my sandwich was desirously lean but cut up into so many little pieces it was more like corned beef hash. 

I wasn't keen about the darkish potato salad with chopped herbs and passed on it after trying a free sample, surprised that regular potato salad wasn't offered. On the plus side, the help was knowledgeable and cheerfully offered samples where feasible.

Customers whose bills exceed $50 receive a free reusable tote bag. Check the Mrs. Green's website or its circular, available at the front of the store, for promotional specials.

The store is open, seven days a week, from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. On Christmas Eve however, it will close at 7 p.m. and it will stay closed on Christmas Day. It is located between a CVS pharmacy and Pay Half in the space previously occupied by Tarrytown Gourmet. Free parking is available behind the store during store hours only.
