| - It's hipster grocery shopping at it's best! Not too fancy like Whole Foods but "green" enough for those crazy kids! I like this place a lot because it offers up very fresh fruit and veggies. Seriously, you wouldn't believe the difference between organic asparagus and the regular old green kind. Plus they have a really great selection of organic meats and seafood.
The thing I really love about this place is the large selection of food to go. It's great that it's right around the corner from work. It's in the Strip District and, gasp, there's FREE parking in their garage if you buy something from the store. No more parking illegal for this girl (well, in this instance at least.) I luuurve that they sell Penn Ave Fish Company sushi to go so that I can just grab that for lunch instead of fighting the lunch crowd at the actual restaurant.
They also always have a plethora of soup options Sometimes 8 at a time! And although half of them sound a little scary to me, I can usually always find that delicious tomato bisque I totally crave. I also try to convince myself that it's healthy even though it's probably made with a gallon of heavy cream. But that's beside the point.
Annnnnd, their baked goods! You would never guess that they would have such a great bakery, but geeez! It's fantastic! IF there's free samples out, please take them. I watch for no one looking at me in the deli and scarf at least five samples down if I can! But everything is baked fresh to order, cookies, cakes, scones, pies. It's a great place to order a cookie tray, which I KNOW yinz Pittsburghers love!
The added perk to this place is thee most friendliest, cheeriest, funniest guy that runs the check out line at the to go good counter that just brightens my days with his prerequisite fist pump. I'll totally fist pump for this place!
