| - I feel almost bi-polar about this place. I have gone back, tried it again, and am being won over a bit at a time.
Being someone who like very flavourful food, I am realizing why Summerhill Market's prepared food isn't overly flavourful....low fat, low sugar, etc. I will say the food is not greasy, and a couple of their items have won me over - their chocolate chip cookies and their meat pies.
This place is still not an "average Joe's" shop. I find the only times it is worthwhile for me to stop here is if I am on my way home from work and don't want to cook, don't want to order in and need something for dinner and lunch tomorrow. Even then I try to talk myself out of stopping in! I at least know that the food is MSG free and better for me than McDonald's or Pizza Pizza.
Summerhill has some great prepared salads, but their overall produce section is super tiny and OVERLY priced. Some of their stuff makes Whole Foods look cheap.
The other thing that brings me back is well....the luxury. I would be lying if I didn't love the pretty packaged food, the ultimate customer service, the cop directing traffic on weekends, etc, etc. This place really lets me feel like I am wearing my tiara and being noticed for my pure princess abilities ; )
