Garces Trading Company

An all-in-one culinary destination and wine boutique from Philly’s Iron Chef

The large, airy restaurant-cum-gourmet market features a host of house-made and imported foods under the Garces Trading Company label, as well as Chef Garces’ award-winning cuisine, available for eat-in or take-out.

The market houses several sections offering different culinary experiences, including: a cheese shop with free samples and Chef Garces’ signature Cheese Complements from Amada, including garlic dulce de leche and fig and cherry marmalade; a variety of imported single estate Vinegars and Olive Oils from Spain, Italy and Greece; and “GTC at Home,” which offers the chance to enjoy Chef Garces’ food in neatly packaged bags for convenient reheating.

Other prepared foods and imported products include: French, Spanish and Italian cheeses; house-cured and imported Charcuterie; and hand-crafted Sandwiches served on house-baked bread.

During lunch and dinner, Garces Trading Company visitors are treated to a menu of European fare, including: a variety of pastas such as Pappardelle with lamb ragu, sun choke puree and piavecchio; thin crust and deep dish pizzas (only fitting, as Chef Garces hails from Chicago); and daily changing plats du jour.
