Walk into either Eataly location in New York City, and you’re likely to see mobs of tourists, and long lines to pick up either one of their handmade sandwiches or a slice of their fresh focaccia bread. Venture around the store, and you’ll find stalls set up selling gelato, fresh pasta, a glass case full of cheese, and what is probably some of the best salami you can find in New York City. The point is if you’re looking for a fast, but well-made, meal, until recently, this was not the place for you. Eataly wants to change all that though, with a new line of meals-to-go called Eataly Pronto.
