Sunset Hill Grocery



I swung by the Sunset Hill Greenmarket for a bottle of wine the other day and was reminded, once again, of what an incredibly cool place it is. A tiny neighborhood spot with plenty of local, organic stuff, as well as a wonderful selection of beer, wine, cheese, and snacks.

I know it hasn't always been easy for the various folks who've owned the place over time, but all in all they've managed the buck the trend that's moving the grocery industry towards big chains and destination supermarkets supplemented by depressing, overpriced neighborhood convenience stores.

The world would be a better place if there were more stores like this one.
