I got black & blue marks at Stew Leonard's, Yonkers...

Agree, Gwenn.

Their ice cream and dairy are excellent. They used to have stellar meat and seafood, now the same can be had anywhere else.

Old Stew had a gimmick, and got rich on it. IMO, his day is over. The despotic maze - once you’re in, you can’t get out, or do they have safe exits now - idea was novel, now it’s ridiculous. I went once to the store in Yonkers, wouldn’t go back. CT is much more human, but definitely not worth the gas.

Fairway in Pelham was worth a single visit too, but shopping for groceries in a store the length of a football field (maybe I exaggerate, a little) is also not worth it. Nothing there I can’t get elsewhere.

Another favorite is Shoprite in New Rochelle. Every day is nursing home visit day, because of the low prices.

Looks like I have as many personal rules for shopping as I do for eating out. :grin:
