The Margherita Plus (Photograph: Jakob N. Layman)

Let us take a moment to mourn the loss of the breakfast danish at Olio at GCM, a sugar glazed, fruit-filled delight that was so drool-worthy it won a Critic's Pick at our 2014 Food & Drink Awards. Alas, it seems the Grand Central Market crowd is more into Olio's savory offerings—and once we had a bite of their Margherita Plus pizza ($10.50), we were into them, too. This pie is an amped up version of Olio's classic Margherita pizza, and it's the huge dollops of burrata that give the "Plus" an extra gooey oomph. Cooked in three to four minutes in Olio's 900-degree wood fired oven, the pillowy crust holds a layer of sweet tomato sauce, a smattering of basil and that heavenly burrata. It's almost enough to make us forget about that breakfast danish...

7 dishes at GCM we're loving right now

Downtown's Grand Central Market has so much amazing food, it's hard to pick favorites. But we did.

A lot has changed at Grand Central Market since it opened in 1917—especially in the past year. New vendors have set up shop, selling artisanal pizza and Texas BBQ among decades-old produce stalls; a beer and wine license was acquired; and, more recently, the market extended their hours Thursday through Sunday, so that you can now come by for dinner until 9pm. We're so enamored with the place, we even held our 2014 Food & Drink Awards there. So what hasn't changed? All the outstanding food you can get under one roof. Whether you're visiting for breakfast, brunch, lunch or now dinner (hooray!), here are some of the dishes we can't get enough of at Grand Central Market.
