| - I haven't done a supermarket or "grocery store" review, before now.
There are bunch of reasons for that oversight...not very good reasons, but reasons nevertheless:)
I'm lazy...I don't really see much difference between them...I don't have any good ideas for grocery store review "stories" that I clearly love to tell:)
Well, that's all over and done...I'm reviewing AJ's:)
I understand they sell groceries there...good for them!
I hope they keep at it (although they are owned by Basha's so it could be touch and go).
What I like about AJ's is the grill outside:)...and cupcakes:)
In addition to all the overpriced crap they sell inside (I swear, Lucy Ricardo is inside the store just making prices up as she goes along...the same box of Kashi Go-Lean that I can buy at Fry's for $2.95 is $4.80 at AJ's...the same friggin' box!:(...they have a grill out front that is both reasonably priced (how does $9.00 for huge 1/2 pound kobe beef burger and a drink sound?:) and really, really good!
They grill everything over an open charcoal grill and the salmon sandwiches, the burgers, the chicken sandwiches and the hot dogs are great, tasty, hot, fresh, well priced...and they are beyond sweet to me at the grill!
Queue up at the counter like I did yesterday and get yourself one of their incredible grilled salmon sandwiches...it looked like an entire salmon swam onto the toasted bun.
All the condiments are right there for the taking...so don't be stingy with whatever you like on your sandwich...don't see it?...Just ask and they will head into the store and get it for you:)
Then sit outside, in the shade, under the misters and enjoy one of the best, most reasonably priced lunches you will have!
After lunch, remembering what my buddy, Abu J. said about the bakery at AJ's, I headed into the store for my sweet treat:)
A revelation!
First of all...Thanks for the tip, Abu!
Second of all, Sprinkles should buy their cupcakes from AJ's and resell them...they could still charge their $14 per cupped cake and the cupped cake would actually be good...everybody would be happy:)
I bought a vanilla cupped cake with vanilla frosting (so subtle, but so satisfying:)...so much better than several of the cupped cake boutiques around town and really, on a par with some of the best...maybe not quite as good as Tammy Coe, but then I only paid $1.45 for this little gem...that ratio of price to goodness hunts!
Next time you are up in the north country, swing by AJ's and say "hi" to Stefanie and the people behind the grill at AJ's and do yourself a favor...leave room for a cupped cake...you'll be happy you did:)
