Social distancing is just one of the many aspects that this “temporary new normal” has to offer. But just because we are all social distancing, for now, does not mean that we can’t have fun. “Hole in the Wall” and “Loulou Petit Bistro and Speakeasy” are now offering some delicious picnic baskets for you and your loved ones to share at a socially distant picnic in the park. Get your appetite ready for some beautiful food and beautiful views!
The “Hole in the Wall” restaurant has two locations, one in Murray Hill at 626 1st Ave., and the other in FiDi at 15 Cliff St. Both of these locations have a “Picnic Pack” that is available for takeout for $40. This includes salami, prosciutto, Murray's ALP Blossom Gruyere, local smoked cheddar, marinated olives, fig jam, rosemary sea salt crackers, and a choice of white wine, red wine, rosé or prosecco.
