I went to Eddie’s Market in Charles Village today. I don’t know if it’s a chain that’s related to Eddie’s Market in Roland Park, but I was very impressed with this little dinky grocery store. They labeled the origin of many of their produce. I bought blueberries from North Carolina (not too far from Maryland) and summer squash, cabbage and fresh basil and rosemary that appeared to be grown locally.
This grocery store is only 2 blocks from the front entrance of Johns Hopkins and about a 10 minute walk from my office. It’s in the opposite direction of my apartment but I bought some canned and frozen food I can keep at school for lunches that I don’t have to take back to my apartment.
The highlight of my shopping adventure was the Maryland lump crab cakes that I purchased. They were $6.99 each so I assumed there was something special about them. They tasted AMAZING!!! I heated them up in the microwave at home and didn’t eat them with any sauce or special sides. They were salty and probably very naughty (ingredient-wise) but DELICIOUS!!!!
The prices at this grocery store were high compared to the Giant I went to a few days ago, but still more reasonable than the supermarkets where I shopped in Chicago. I will try to check out SuperFresh soon or else just go to the Farmer’s Market on Saturday! I got $100 cash from the ATM to spend 
CAN’T WAIT!
Some more research about the Farmer’s Market in Waverly. When I get a (zip)car, I will also check out the downtown farmer’s market.
What’s in season?
How do I get there from my house?
