| - Walking through the east Don trails, at the end I came across this supermarket. Never seen it before (it's at the back of the little plaza with Timmies in it, and I've never gone on that side before) so of course I decided to check it out. I like interesting grocery stores - you always find unique items. Yes I know I'm weird. I like to look at grocery store products!
It's a Mediterranean store, lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Lots of brands I never heard of before - which is awesome!
They have a wine/beer/flower section in the front (a little off to the side, in its own area) and in front there is a coffee/cafe section!
There is a hot food station where you pay by weight,, and also a fresh made section (sushi, sandwiches, pizza). A little station at the end is Kareem's - Indian food to go!
I was duly impressed with the interesting offerings - cheeses, gelatos, breads, vegan pastas, etc. Of course, most items aren't cheap so I wouldn't do every day shopping here, but for a few unique items it's definitely a great choice!
I picked up some organic kale and basil pesto, baguette (they have smaller size ones that perfect for 2 days), and some hot food. I really wanted to mango pineapple sorbet, but since I walked, it would have melted by the time I got home.
