What used to be the Foodtown on Sunset Avenue in Wanamassa will be re-opening on Saturday as a Spirits Unlimited discount liquor store. I wandered in with some of the liquor stockers yesterday. It's huge. I noticed that they have a food section, as a convenience; however, lots more food there than one would expect-- I guess because the space is so large and because Azzolino is still involved there. So those who regret the loss of Wanamassa's FT still have a nearby place. One caveat: You have to walk past all the liquor aisles to get to the food. Like you have to walk to the farthest corner of most supermarkets to get to the basics, milk, bread, etc. Not a good place to make a quick stop for your "Daily Bread" if you're on your way to an AA meeting. Although I'm not a fan of Joe Azzolino, I will give him credit for the transition: I'm told that none of the employees lost a job in the process. My favorites moved to Middlebrook, and accommodations were made for those with transportation problems. Looking forward to the NW AP market promised by Fasano.
