If you are entertaining, Balducci’s market is the place to go for pretend-you-made-them-yourself hor’deurves. But beware that the affordable selection of fresh veggies, fruits, cheeses, breads, premade apps, and other groceries may be so delicious they give you away. The Chelsea location is housed in the extraordinary old landmark Savings Bank building, whereas the Upper West Side space feels more like a just another gourmet grocery store. Balducci’s is filed under Free Time: Entertaining (Snacks).
