Special Spicy, Sweet Food Market Coming To The UWS This Weekend

UPPER WEST SIDE, NY — Grand Bazaar NYC is an Upper West Side institution and the popular outdoor food and goods market is hosting a special rendition this weekend.

A "Sweet, Hot & Spicy Pop-Up" will take place Sunday from the usual location in the playground at West 77th Street and Columbus Avenue.

The food market will have over 20 artisanal food vendors "that are spicing and sweetening up the 'mid-winter' blues."

There will be spicy Jamaican chicken, burning Indian curries, fiery empanadas, flaming hot sauces and salsas, Korean corn dogs, Asian soups, and more.

There will also be sweet offerings like donuts, pastries, vegan cakes, and Caribbean-inspired treats.

Among the spicy and sweet food choices, there will also be the usual selection of 70 independent artists, designers, and vintage dealers selling their goods.

Admission is free and it will run from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

All profits are donated to four Upper West Side public schools, benefitting over 2,000 children.

Grand Bazaar is open every Sunday during the same hours.
