Eat Local
I have mixed feelings about this newish local, food market. I like that I can hang out at their loft space and no one is ever there bothering me with their smells or bad music. I like that the staff are so easy to talk to and they even let me stay past closing time once. I like that I can buy my milk out of a glass jug for under $4. But really, that's about it. The hot chocolate that the staff love so much, just doesn't do it to me. The food, which comes from local farms, is frozen and costs more than going to a restaurant that serves local food. And everything else, from oils to simple granola is just ridiculously overpriced. Even for Queen Anne rich types. Why don't they have local fresh food? How are they still in business? I don’t know the answers, but I do know that I'm wicked cheap. So if you want to spend $7 on a one serving size package of frozen mac and cheese, then you'll just adore this cute, little place. I, unfortunately, don't.
