Since the second of July the doors are open again. The store
has been rejuvenated but the knowledgeable and helpful staff has
remained the same. It was a long waiting period for many months
because a fire damaged part of the store had to be restored as
per building codes and with inspector approval. The many
customers in the East end, who depended on this source of
high-quality merchandise, meats, baked goods and – just in time
– barbeque supplies, had to go elsewhere. Some had to go – God
forbid – to supermarkets that did not carry what they and their
families were used to. |
