| - This supermarket kicks ass.
I'm unfamiliar with all of the tales, rumours, myths and legends surrounding this location, but I'm sure it was lovely to listen to. In any event, this place is HUGE.
I ended up parking in their underground lot, as I was visiting someone staying at the Holiday Inn next door. As mentioned, if you spend $20 inside, you can have an hour and a half validated off of what you owe for parking. What they don't tell you however, is that if you stay in their lot for more than 3 hours, you're automatically subjected to a flat-rate of $40. Gwah? Confused by the lack of signage informing me of such things, I went over to customer service and inquired as to how being in a "$4 every half-hour" lot for just over 3 hours lands a $40 fee, and was told the tragic news. I was pissed, but no matter, the wonderfully awesome employee validated my pass for the whole amount, but told me next time I'd have to purchase at least the $20 to get it validated. I ended up buying up a ton of stuff before I left anyhow (guilt perhaps? I dunno), but that was still super sweet of her to do it without knowing.
What else to say about this supermarket? They have a terrific bakery (maple bacon donuts anyone?), a nice little cafe section, an insane cheese wall, and has as great of a general grocery selection as any other place you could think of. I loved it.
