What I mean to say is you can get a lot done within a short distance: kibble for your cat or dog, oil for your car, and a little something for yourself. I'd say 40% of the store is devoted to beer and wine. Seems like the wine enthusiasts love Rodman's, and they do wine tastings there on occasion. Wine isn't my thing though I'll pick one up if the bottle is pretty. The beer is...beer. Most of it not my style, usually the craft here and elsewhere has too much of an aftertaste. But I digress! What I come here for are the imported foods. Yes, some can be found elsewhere including Giant and Safeway but others are definitely foreign. Stuff from Europe, perhaps a little from Down Under (which bits I forget). There's a nice sampling of chocolate and non-alcoholic drinks, including 'Just ice Tea'. Just mentioning it because there's two or three places I can find it and herbal tea etc. can be a nice alternative to energy drinks. (Those pointing out that I could make my own tea are correct, and that it's cheaper, but beyond the basic put-teabags-in-bottle-and-let-it sit I just don't have the time.) Now on to cheeses: they have a good selection. I feel the price is right, but at the same time if you go to Aldi's (to the right, at the end of the sidewalk) you can find some comparable cheese for $2-$3 less. Don't know if it's worth the walk and waiting in line, though, when you have something here. There are sales here, of course, and if you go by sale alone you may make out like a bandit. Just don't go when you're on a diet or fasting. Too many temptations.

Not only did the fudge pair well with the beer, but each one (tried 4) was delicious. They were all smooth, creamy, and not super rich. I like how creative the flavors are. Although I enjoyed all 4 pieces I tried, my favorite was a tie between the spicy mango and strawberry balsamic. Loved the slight heat the spicy mango gave, with the spice coming through right at the end of each bite. I thought the strawberry balsamic would be my least favorite, but it was so good. I liked how both had fruit pieces in them. I definitely plan to order more fudge from The Chocolatier's Palette in the near future. Be sure to check out their website periodically as the flavors change every 2-3 weeks. Local pickup (I believe near Grosvenor metro) or shipping is available.

For organic food, the prices are quite good and there's a good amount of variety. I'm much more of a meat eater, so a completely vegetarian menu normally wouldn't be my first choice, but I genuinely enjoy the food here. The burgers are actually my personal favorite, especially when they have the mushroom "bacon." I'm not usually big on meat substitutes, but the way they prepare it works really well and tastes great in its own way. The burgers aren't quite as good of a value portion-wise as the bowls, though. The salad bowls are more filling for the price, and you can customize them with whatever you want. They also regularly have limited-time items like tacos, along with juices, muffins, and other options, so there's usually something different to try. There's seating inside along the counter, but my family usually prefers grabbing one of the tables outside when the weather is nice. Overall, really good healthy food, solid value, and plenty of options even for someone who normally prefers meat. The burgers are still my favorite, but the bowls are probably the best bang for your buck. I recommend!

The store offers a great variety of high-quality Eastern European products, including a strong selection of meats and dairy.
