Whether it's gourmet cheese and bread, grape-leaf -wrapped daumas, or chunks of brown crystalized sugar, Vallerga's Market is the place to go. It's expensive but it's fabulous, and the only place to go grocery-store wise to get all those details that regular stores can't provide. They also carry a handy two-pack of cheesecakes for the picnic-minded and a variety of cold salads and imported deli meats... yum! You always see the same faces at Vallerga's because they've all been working there for years... it really is a neighborhood store, despite it's higher-than-average price tags, and all kinds of people shop there- not just the rich! They carry milk and ice cream from our local dairy, without Bovine Growth Hormone, and that's enough to keep moms going back. I highly recommend Vallerga's to the adventurous type.
