Dean & Deluca

Giorgio DeLuca, a school teacher turned cheese merchant, and Joel Dean, a business manager, dreamed of creating a place that would offer customers a sumptuous celebration of food and a venue to experience all of the pleasures that cooking and eating can bring. The original Dean & Deluca opened for business in September 1977 in SoHo at the corner of Prince and Greene Streets. <taken from Dean & Deluca website>

Today, aside from the United States, Dean & Deluca has expanded to several international locations such as Japan, Thailand, Taiwan, South Korea, The Middle East and just very recently, Singapore! It is located at the Level 4 of Orchard Central Mall.

According to their website, the Dean & Deluca brand represents a lifestyle with a focus on food—not just a retail brand. Everything was pricey but it was worth it!

Last July 21st, my sister and I had brunch here before we watched the famous broadway musical, Annie. Dining here made me want to visit New York all the more! I love the refreshing ambiance!

Feast your eyes! It was the perfect brunch!
