| - Being the frugle shopper I've become, I was pleasantly surprised by my experience at Fresh and Easy (what a killer name, double entendre or what). If you're old and ready to die, or an older couple, this is the store for you, just kidding about the ready to die part.
This store reminds me somewhat of what grocery stores were like back in the 60's, yes I'm older than dirt. They carried the necessities but not much more than that, here, it's just a slightly different but close enough. Great selection on proteins, meat, chicken, seafood and pork. The quality of the food is fairly high, reminds me of Costco, but not on steroids.
Their store soups are excellent, sampled pumpkin soup today, absolutely dilish (phonetically spelled, don't you know). I purchase a big ass piece of Belgian Chocolate for $3.99 and an inexpensive bottle of red Spanish wine, Saludas for $2.99.
For a small neighbored grocery store, I was impressed by the fact that they were sampling. As I transition into my golden years, sampling moves everyone to the top of the food chain, as an old person, I have to live on samples if I want to survive this cold and lonesome world. P.S. Costco's on Saturdays are the best, please be prepared to take out a few gummers with your shopping cart, they are like zombies, you just can kill them or get them away from the samples.
The selection of fruits is okay, not great, decent selection of vegetables and the rest is great. I would like to see an adult diaper changing station, so that I don't have to drive my wife home in the middle of shopping, other than that, I love this place, it's the bomb.
