But I did not find an eatery in Baltimore. I would love to have either a Korean or an African eatery in the neighborhood.

Re: [Chat] Aldi store has good prices
Judy, If you believe that we should not shop at foreign owned supermarkets, then you will not shop at Giant. Giant was founded by a kosher butcher named Isidore Cohen who lived somewhere in the DC/Baltimore area, but before he died, he sold Giant to Royal Ahold which is a Dutch Company. After that, in my opinion, Giant went downhill. I have been told that Stop Shop, a chain in Massachusetts also acquired by Royal Ahold and now part of the same division of Royal Ahold as Giant, has also gone downhill in quality of service to customers. A few years ago, Royal Ahold was caught cooking its books i.e. pretending to be more profitable than it was. That involved stores in South America, not in the U.S. Personally, I will continue to shop at Giant for the things that I cannot readily get at the farmers' market. But I tend to buy a lot at Whole Foods (expensive often, I know, but worth it to me for the quality and for products that cannot be found at Giant or Eddie's, and Whole Foods is an American company), and I often go 3 blocks to Eddie's rather than 6 blocks to Giant. Safeway pulled completely out of Baltimore City some years ago, then moved back into the City when it opened its store in Charles Village. My impression is that its prices are higher than those at Giant. As much as I hate Walmart, I expect it to have a good effect on prices at Safeway. Giant reportedly lowered its prices because too many of its customers were driving to a Walmart. Steve.
