"2"^^ . . "I love Loblaws. Simply put, it's the best grocery store I've ever shopped at. Overall quality of food and the stores themselves is second to none. \n\nAfter moving to this neighborhood a little under a year ago, I was pleased to have a Loblaws store so close by. By my recollection, it arrived about 2 years before I moved here and having one here saves me a trip to Queens Quay. \n\nLet's get down to the important details. What separates Loblaws from the rest of the supermarkets is that their store name brand has become brand name itself and the quality of it is often better than the name brand items it competes with. The Ziggy's brand pepperoni is the best out there. It's brand name cousin is Pillars which tastes like and has the texture of beef jerky (which is fine...if you were actually looking for BEEF JERKEY). Their PC fresh pasta is better than Oliveri, the Naan bread mini's are fantastic and have no equivalent from any other company, and the mushrooms are always fresh. The cheese selection is second to none, they have a great freezer section, organic food section, fresh vegetable section and deli and pastry section. Parking is validated for those who drive (validated parking downtown? Get outta here!), and they have a lotto counter too.\n\nWhy would you shop anywhere else??"^^ . . "2015-03-18T00:00:00"^^ .
