Local produce! Fresh humus! Specialty meat! Crazy nuts! I don’t mean Whole Foods, or even Superfresh, I’m talking about Grosvenor Market. No, stop, I’m actually serous. I know it’s in the basement of an apartment complex. I know it sounds like a glorified convenience store, and I know it’s way out in suburbia, but this place rocks!
Where else are you going to get all-natural dry aged beef on a moment’s notice? Or Apples from a local orchard? Or those great honey-sesame candy things you’re addicted to? The front of this tiny hole-in-the-wall is decorated with the various prizes they’ve won for organic food, happy service, etc. etc. etc. And they also have a Notary Public – I mean, what else can you possibly ask for?
To get there, exit the Grosvenor metro and take a right down the escalator, follow the path that goes to the right of the little landscaped stream through the big scary suburban apt buildings. Past the kiddie pool. Stop laughing! This place rocks, I mean it!
