Jeffrey M. Cohen

In 1979, Jeffrey M. Cohen was working in the wine and food industry. He realized that the capital of our nation needed a fine wine and food market that could cater to the refined tastes of Ambassadors and residents. Working with a developer, he opened an extraordinary store called Sutton Place Gourmet in 1980. Christopher Driver of The Guardian wrote, This emporium leaves Harrod's food hall with little to boast about apart from the architecture.
