This is by far the closest market to our condo, located just a few yards up the alley behind the building, with a good selection of prepared and deli foods. Note that liquor and wine must be bought in a licensed liquor store rather than a grocery. Also, there is a charge for paper bags. Take one of the canvas bags from under the stairs in the condo.
