(Long Island, N.Y.) During this month Fairway Market stores throughout the Tri-State area held their annual free holiday tasting. I had the pleasure of interviewing Assistant Manager Jonathan Goldstein at the Long Island Plainview Fairway Market about their wonderful catering services.
At the event shoppers indulged in Fairway’s signature Thanksgiving fare and received 10% off catering orders placed. Dishes available from the Thanksgiving menu included mouthwatering main course options such as Fairway’s famous oven-ready organic turkey and honey spiced glazed spiral ham; savory homemade stuffing in varieties from corn bread and pecan to fresh herb mushroom and decadent side dishes featuring roasted root vegetables, parsnip and turnip puree and wild rice with dried cranberries and pecans. Fairway’s scrumptious apple, sweet potato, pumpkin, pecan and three berry pies were just some of the Thanksgiving desserts that were highlighted at the tasting.

Cognac Wellerlane interviews Jonathan Goldstein Assistant Manager at the Fairway Supermarket in Plainview, Long Island about a Special Holiday Tasting.
The Plainview location was the third Fairway Market to open and their first in the suburbs of Long Island. With twice as much square footage as their flagship store, Fairway now had room to seriously increase the number of fabulous features offered to their shoppers including wider aisles.
Plainview was also the first supermarket to install a seating area next to the hot foods bar so customers could pause and enjoy their prepared foods in between discovering all the amazing amenities Fairway offers. The intimate seating area was a fabulous success with customers; the wider aisles and greater selection were celebrated.
For over a decade Fairway Markets in Plainview is a welcomed fixture in Long Island. Fairway Markets brought to Plainview an introduction to fresh foods that Long Islanders embraced. With their huge square footage, Fairway was able to offer Nassau County a vast variety of organic and natural foods priced comparable to traditional groceries and definitely priced lower than any other store that could be found in the Long Island area. Fairway Market also includes a huge collection of organic and natural Health and Beauty Aids as well as supplements and vitamins. Fairway Markets introduced Plainview shoppers to Fairway label products and a better way of eating.
A cheery addition to the Plainview store is an extensive floral selection at the entrance way. Stepping inside to a “greenhouse” of spring in bloom brings joy to customers as the doors open up into the familiar trove of fresh produce. At Fairway Markets shoppers can browse around to the Butcher Shop, Seafood Department, Cheese Counter, Olive Bar, Deli and Appetizing – it’s all there, fresh, prepared, original, delicious and new for all Long Islanders to discover.
