We know have five within about 10 miles of us. I love their French
bread and the have a significant cheese collection. I regularly buy
their smoked fish, they always have about 8 or 9 varieties. Plenty of
organic veggies and fruit, and at least two of them have meat sections
that are incredible diverse. We have a lot of stuff that we now buy
regularly there.

We have a Mother's Kitchen about a half mile from us, and for fruits
and vegetables, but the closest Whole Foods can be a long two miles.
