Talk about some great home
cookin’!
Hunts Point-based distributor
Baldor Specialty Foods announced
the launch of a new
home food delivery series, brining
plenty of popular dishes
from top restaurants available
to home chefs this week.
Called “The Restaurant Series”
it recreates signature
dishes from a growing list of
Baldor’s restaurant clients,
ranging from four-course meals
of citrus-marinated chicken
from Michelin-starred Crown
Shy in the financial district all
the way to lobster roll kits from
Jeffrey’s Grocery in the West
Village.
You can even order up some
Texas brisket and sides from
Hill Country Barbecue market
in Midtown along with pasta
and meatballs from Hearth
Restaurant in the East Village
straight to your door.
“With so many of us still unable
to enjoy our favorite restaurant
dishes because of the
pandemic, we decided the next
best thing was to bring these
restaurant dishes to our home
delivery customers,” said Baldor
CEO, TJ Murphy, calling
the meals “mouthwatering”
ones that anyone can prepare
at home.
According to Baldor, each
home delivery includes the
same “fresh, restaurant-quality
ingredients used to make
the originals,” throwing in
some amateur friendly recipes
and cooking tips as well.
Currently exclusive to New
York City restaurants, Baldor
plans expanding to other eateries
it serves throughout the
east coast too.
“As we strive to provide our
home delivery customers with
exciting new meal options, we
will continue to work with new
restaurant clients and chefs to
share more exceptional dishes
over time” said Benjamin
Walker, Vice President of Sales
and Marketing at Baldor.
He added, “the restaurant
series is a great way to support
the restaurant community
and at the same time become
an at-home rock star for bringing
easy-to-execute, delicious
meals to your family.”
Orders for this new home delivery
service that reaches all
five of the city’s boroughs can
be made here.
Saint Barnabas
teen honored
BY ALEX MITCHELL
One dedicated student from
Saint Barnabas High School
has been awarded for her extracurricular
achievements
as well as hard work ethic in
the Bronx and elsewhere.
Sofi a Rosado was given a
virtual version of the Bronx
Chamber of Commerce’s
Women of Distinction Scholarship
towards the end of last
month, which was sponsored
by the Woodlawn Cemetery.
Rosado is described by
award givers as a motivated,
conscientious and independent
student who volunteers
in her school’s offi ce while
also being known among her
teachers for her thorough and
“meticulous work ethic.”
One Saint Barnabas
alum, Barbara Selesky, who
is now director of marketing
and media relations at Woodlawn
commented on Rosado’s
achievement, saying “the importance
of awarding this
Women of Distinction scholarship
is twofold.”
Continuing her academic
career with a focus in technology,
the distinguished student
has completed multiple
courses in applied psychology
and computer science at Saint
Barnabas.
In her spare time, Rosado
works as a babysitter and
volunteers throughout the
Bronx, which is what made
her stand out as a worthy candidate.
She has recently been inducted
into the National Hispanic
Honor Society and also
plans on attending Queens
Borough Community College,
where Rosado currently plans
on majoring in computer science.
“Woodlawn takes great
pride in being the fi nal resting
place of many notable
women of distinction who
Sophia Rosado Courtesy of Woodlawn
have changed the course of
history through their leadership,”
Selesky added, noting
that female leaders like Elizabeth
Cady Stanton, African-
American trailblazer and
social activist Madam C.J.
Walker, author Elizabeth Cochrane
Seaman (best known
as Nelly Bly) and the Queen of
Salsa, entertainer Celia Cruz,
have all called Woodlawn a fi -
nal resting place.
Bronx Chamber of Commerce’s
Women of Distinction
Scholarship event has traditionally
taken place each
March during a luncheon
which honors Women’s History
Month; however due to
COVID-19 issues, the virtual
June event was held in its
place.
