One bag of Nom Wah crystal shrimp dumplings are $27 in the frozen food section. I thought it was expensive but the dumplings looked so perfect I just had to try them. I steamed them at home and they are just as good as in a restaurant. Turns out Goldbelly sells Nom Wah dumplings 2 for $109!!!! So one for $27 is a bargain! You are paying for shipping at Goldbelly even if it's free shipping. What a difference in price when you can buy the dumplings at Fairway! Also, the nice guy at the seafood counter had some nice fresh live lobster for $16.99 a pound, which wasn't that bad for the middle of the winter. I bought one at it was sweeeeet!

As a result, they occasionally have to order a prescription from a wholesaler, and it takes an extra day, so I have learned to renew perscriptions a day or two early. Aside from this, they are wonderful to deal with. Angelo, the pharmacist and manager, is a pleasure. He always answers questions quickly and with knowledge. He has trained his staff to do the same. They deliver even the smallest and most mundane orders. As a result, I don't understand why more people with insurance don't use independent pharmacies - their copay and pricing are much the same as the big, impersonal chains. Give them a try. I doubt that you will be disappointed.

*This is a review for the bakery section at Whole Foods*…read more If I brought home a cake, tossed the packaging, and told you it came from a well-known local bakery, you'd probably believe me. Their bakes really are that good. I especially love their desserts. My favorites include the tres leches cake, chocolate cake, berry chantilly cake, tiramisu, and sticky toffee pudding. These are frequent purchases in my household, and I'd even say they rival desserts from many local bakeries. Their baked goods are equally impressive. The vegan croissants are surprisingly delicious, and that's coming from someone who doesn't typically eat vegan food. They're better warmed up though, as the heat brings out whatever vegan butter they use. I'm less enthusiastic about their gluten-free offerings. While the flavor is decent, the texture is a bit too airy and slightly gritty for my taste. These definitely tasted gluten-free. I am a bit cross with Whole Foods for shrinking their cakes while increasing the prices. Three years ago, their tiramisu almost filled the entire plastic box. Now it's been reduced to nearly half the size! I'm so irked by the flagrant shrinkflation here. I hope Whole Foods does something about it.
