It feels like a modern country kitchen. You know those test kitchens that they have for magazines? It felt like I was in one of those. I felt like Elizabeth Baird (famous Canadian Living cook , editor and personality) was going to drop in. But no sighting. There is a little alcove where you can eat. I didn't notice it until I was leaving then felt awkward to want to eat there. Next time.
The cashier was a bit eager. Let me get in the store first before you immediately greet me! Otherwise, he was really nice and helpful.
I ATE
Tuna Melt. At $8.50 for a sandwich I could have made at home, yes, its a bit pricey. But I was ravenous after a work out and this completely hit the spot. Having it pressed was a nice touch and the melted cheese really hit the spot.
They offer a little container of olives and sweet pickles for $1.50. Not worth it. Where are the dill pickles?! *Standing up for all dill pickle enthusiasts out there.
Then I got a croissant because they looked so damn good (and big). It was. I cannot resist a croissant. Mmm. And this one did NOT disappoint!
OBLIGATORY CATCHY REMARK
I will definitely be back for some "Eats." I wouldn't grocery shop here but as a pit stop for a sammie or croissant with a girlfriend is in order!
