Marty's
Opened: 1994
Owner: Martin Siegal
Full disclosure: Marty's is not a supermarket. It's not even really a grocery store. The 12,000 square foot store is first and foremost a beautiful wine store. But the left side of the building also has a great selection of specialty foods, cheeses, and the like. And that alone warrants its inclusion here on The Market Report.
If you enter and make a left, there are a few aisles of gourmet foods, and a counter for cheeses and prepared foods. It's a very high-end selection, and there's a lot of unique items here.
This is only about a third of the sales floor, though, as the majority is dedicated to wine.
And it's a large selection displayed very attractively. Overall, it's an upscale store.
I don't drink, so every time I go into a liquor store I always feel out of place. Or even the liquor department of a supermarket. I always have the same thought of "wait, I'm still underage, right?" I definitely am not. But I'm sure I'll keep having that thought until I'm 75 years old.

This is a quick look, but it's fun to see a different type of store. And don't worry, today there's also a supermarket post -- check out the Whole Foods next door here. That's all for now, and have a great weekend!
