So I just half-moved to Ohio City after half-living for a year in Parma. Long story short I live half in Columbus and half in Cleveland due to grad school. Anyway, I wish I would have half-lived in this neighborhood the whole time!!
I finally decided to venture into Dave's today, and am happy I did! You should note, I have yet to go to the West Side Market - please don't judge.
Anyway, some of the prices are too pricey but a lot of them are very reasonable!! The produce all looked great and was competitive with Giant Eagle on price.
I guess the thing that tipped the scales from a 3 to a 4 star for me was that I found a "tostonera" in the Goya aisle! My fiance and I were just recently fretting over how to make really good fried plantains, like we had in several Puerto Rican restaurants. The tonstonera is basically a plaintain squasher which (hopefully) does just that!!
So I added another gadget to the kitchen, and had a good ol' time at Dave's.
