I'd hesitate to call it either a supermarket or a greengrocer, as it features impressive floral, produce, deli, bakery, and seafood departments, all packed into just 4000 square feet of space.

We'll then finish up New York State before attacking New Jersey. But that's all far in the future, let's stick with central Westchester for now!
