Balducci's was a relatively small specialty market, with excellent
produce, meats, cheeses, fish and import products. Never cheap, but
family run and they carried things that most other stores did not in
those days. They expanded into a lot of carry-out foods and bakery and
that, too was good, but at some point, the older generation of owners
died off and the store was sold to a conglomerate of some sort, and
that, as they say, was that. The name still exists, but it isn't the
same.
