David Sanchez is General Manager of Abigail Kirsch at The New York Botanical Garden. |
No doubt you’ve noticed a few changes in the Garden’s two cafes in recent weeks. We listened to you, our customers; incorporated your suggestions; and added some of our own thoughts on how to create a sense not of eating but of dining. As the new General Manager of Abigail Kirsch at The New York Botanical Garden, I bring the commitment of Abigail Kirsch to offering fresh food, great service, and appealing variety.
The transformation has included…
- Enhancing food choices and presentation
- Replacing the brand of coffee to freshly brewed Lavazza
- Introducing beer and expanding the wine selections
- Improving the quality of our snacks and “grab-and-go” items
- Adding healthier menu options for children such as fresh veggie sticks to replace French fries on request, hormone free milk, a selection of organic fruit juices, fresh fruit cups, and fresh yogurt parfaits with low fat granola
- Using “greener” serving options such as reusable flatware instead of plastic and compostable food packaging, cups, and napkins
