    I just wanted to rave: I walked in looking for a NICE olive oil had NO clue and with in 10 seconds I had some one helping me.

    Then in the wine department, a lady was right there helping me out.

    It was great to get in and out

    Well, yes. I was there specifically to get Garnet yams and Hungarian smoked paprika for a recipe, and staff was knowledgeable and very helpful.

    Another errand took me to Thriftway the next day and I price-checked: Same yam, 33% less $. Same paprika, 25% less $. Just saying.

    Kayzel..

    would you have found the garnet yams and hungarian smoked paprika at thriftway on your own?

    if so, you paid a heavy premium for the items.

    if not, you paid a fair price for expertise.

    Met Market has good prices on fruit, vegetables, dairy, tofu, and brown rice. They get you on all the “extras.”

    I just got two pounds of bananas from met market for no cost. I like the monthly free item cards they send out. True, I stayed and bought some beer while I was there, but I'd have probably gotten that independently of the bananas anyway. I like met market because I can walk there, because it is clean, and they have excellent pita bread. It's not my sole source of food but the bottom line isn't my only concern either.

    I really Love Met Market for their hot dinners when I am eating alone and don't feel like cooking. Out of our local grocery stores they have the best cheese and seafood, and I can always find something for a gift or something for myself if I dare to venture upstairs.

    met market is one of the many reasons i am grateful to be back in west seattle. i do know they are pricey, but for very specific items needed for recipes they are fantastic. also, as itneverrainsinwestseattle stated, they have great produce and dairy. personally, i could live at the cheese counter. we are lucky we have so many grocery choices (still no trader joe's though) here in WS. it makes it easy to shop a couple stores for what you need.
