The Fresh Market is taking meal solutions to the level of fine dining, launching The Fresh Market Ultimate Dinner Meals, family-focused meals with high-grade proteins, sides, appetizers and desserts.
The Ultimate Steakhouse Dinner Meal, for example, is made to feed six people for $149.99, including two USDA Prime First-Cut New York strip steaks, two USDA Prime First-Cut ribeye steaks, two USDA Prime Chateaubriand-Cut filet mignon steaks, two pounds of ready-to-cook seasoned asparagus, six ready-to-heat loaded twice baked potatoes, one caprese platter complete with fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil and one gourmet fruit tart made fresh in store.
The meal comes with cooking and heating instructions and appropriate suggested wine pairings.
The Fresh Market created the meals to help larger groups looking to celebrate a larger meal, where going out to a restaurant during COVID-19 might be tougher. “While these are unprecedented times, our guests still want to treat themselves to a special meal, whether they are celebrating a birthday, anniversary or even a Saturday night dinner socially distanced with some friends,” said Dan Portnoy, chief merchandising officer, The Fresh Market. “That is why we are launching The Fresh Market’s Ultimate Dinner Meals, which rival the quality of any fine dining restaurant meal."
