They're pretty damn close. Find me another grocery store with their level of service and personal touch. It's the last remaining neighborhood grocery store in the area. I hope to god this new one doesn't hurt it in any significant way.

Winslow's Home, Johnny's, Sappington Farmer's Market and Vincent's, among others, might just take issue with you there.

And yours was ambiguous. There are few "neighborhood groceries" overall; the fact that one remained in Ladue proper was more a function of demographics than anything else.

Obviously 'gourmet' means something totally different between the two of us then.

Naw. It just changed from an old-money pit to a money pit (although the two definitions of "pit" aren't necessarily identical). 8)
