Why the New Brooklyn Wegmans Is Absolutely Worth Freaking Out About | Eater NY

"When I first visited in 2009, it was a gleaming outpost on a hill in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, in a nice shopping center with a Movie Tavern and a P.F. Chang’s; the produce department had vegetables I’d never seen before, the hot bars were spilling over with pasta, curries, and soups, and it was positively hopping — it even had a pub that, at the time, let the store skirt Pennsylvania’s liquor laws so six‑packs could be sold in an adjoining shop; it felt fancy and abundant (the first place I bought Brussels sprouts and Brie) and stocked everything from loose tea and bulk bins to knockoff Cinnamon Life cereal and a skin‑care aisle." - Emma Alpern
