It's a gourmet grocery, and people rate the counter among the best in the city. They'll shuck and pack them on ice for you to take away. The rotisserie chicken gets named a lot, herbed and never dried out, and the slices have fans. Everything costs a lot, and some say you're paying a premium for merely fine.
