The Amish Market (& its focaccia)

If you live in Midtown East in NYC, you probably have heard about or already developed an attachment to the Amish Market on the 45th St, between the 2nd and the 3rd Ave. I like their bread, chocolate collection, and fresh produce in general but by all means avoid their canned granola, despite the fact that there are many choices and they all look great. The one I bought today after work, Terranut Crunch, with coconut chips and Brazil nuts, was not even a little on the crunchy side. Right, it was almost... stale. My molars were not happy when I was chewing some. It's probably just a packaging problem, but that's still a problem.

However, do go try their focaccia with herbs and other stuff on top. I like those eggplant ones. And there are some focaccias generously topped with sliced olives too.

I wanted to take a picture of the one I bought, but I ate it all too quickly.
