only heard of the place through rfc - I have no idea really, what
kind of store it is. Standard grocery/supermarket?

In Westwood? If so, :-(

Yeah, that's the one. Why the frown?

Because I'm not going to drive there. I was hoping for the Western
'burbs. Oh well. We ARE getting a new Asian market soon. (Of course,
I plan to move within the next 13 months, so that may not be relevant
for too long.)

Pittsford has an both attached restaurant and a sitdown counter (near the
bakery) where you can sip wine and eat grilled tilapia or whatever.


Uh oh...have a glass of wine while grocery shopping??? Perish the thought!!

I honestly didn't really know where Westwood was exactly. Just googled
it. Turns out it is only 12 miles from me. If there is mall, it will be
worth the trip, unless the mall is one of those really upscale types,
like the new addition in Natick.

Plus, it all sounds like it will be quite some time before it is any
where near done.....

who would be ecstatic if CostPlus World Market expanded to New
England/Mass.

I *loved* Cost Plus when I lived in Houston. Wish they would open some
stores in the Baltimore area.

Not as third world or remotely as interesting as it was before it
changed names to Cost Plus *World Market*. It is upscale and bland
now. They don't sell Cost Plus designed wrapping paper, cocktail
napkins etc anymore (only the tip of the iceberg). I could go on, but
it's like spitting in the wind.
