I'm developing a habit of when I'm on the road to bring a cooler and search for the country meat…read moremarkets/shops because you never know what you will find in them. The place is practically on the Mississippi River on the Il side across from Clinton Ia were I was hanging out. The place really sticks out from the neighborhood because it's red and black against a pale back drop. The place was smaller than it looked but it was packed with goodies from fresh meats, cheeses, sausages etc with a frozen side filled with homemade and not homemade items to cook at home. One thing that I always look for is the homemade meat sticks and anything jalapeño or hot will be my first choice, they had jalapeño and cheddar. I'm always bitching that if I want a real chicken fried steak I have to make it my self because virtually no one does because there the frozen crap, they have a homemade take home package of 4 that I snapped up but have yet to cook. The jalapeño and cheddar sticks were so on point with nice chunks of cheddar and jalapeños, dam I only bought one package. The take and cook country fried steak package finally got its turn and I must say that it was the best prepared take home frozen country fried steak I have had. They cook super fast and have a tasty crunchy batter with a tender moist center to my surprise. I'm really starting to hate my take a cooler while traveling to bring home items that I can't get where I live because there is great stuff out there and I'm probably never going to get them again because every trip is different. I would really like to come this way again and stop here so I could grab some more items. All in all this was another great county meat market that does what it does well and the whole reason that I now search them out when I'm away from home. I would definitely be a regular if I lived in the area and recommend stopping by if your in the area.

There was a gentleman performing solo music that was fun to sit and listen. Front Street brewing has a stand here - and each of the two times I've purchased a beverage (different trips), I have had a less than enjoyable interface with the team staffing the cart. Turns me off to FSB to be honest. The produce is over priced for the most part but I do enjoy fresh and tasty tomatoes as well as sweet corn. To me the pricing would be ok if it was for organic produce. But we all know this is sprayed and probably GMO. That said, it makes for a fun few hours.

Once again, problems at the meat counter. They had a special on 8 oz Ribeye for $9.98. Those are…read moreprecut in the case so they don't weight the package when they label it. I told them I would like one. I didn't watch things that close. I got home and my wife said that package doesn't look very think or weight much for two Ribeye's. I said two, I bought one? It was packaged and labeled as two and the price was $19.98. We opened the package there was only one 8 oz Ribeye in it!!! Honest mistake or????? Nothing I can really do. The package has been opened so who would believe us? Can't go by any weight on the label of the package because there is no weight on it. Screwed out of $10 bucks, thanks. A week or so ago a different meat counter person and I ordered one pound of 93%. He went for the 85% and I was watching. Had it on the scale. I said that's not 93%, it came out of the 85% tray. I guess you really have to watch them here at the meat counter.

So I got accused of stealing from this place in the most rediculous way possible. It's actually…read moreeven quite funny to me. Here's the context. I go here about four or five times a week, if only because it's convenient to a couple other places I go to. I ride a bike as transportation, so I usually have a backpack on me to keep things, and...to hawl groceries around. Now I know being a dude with a backpack is a cardinal sin in grocery stores, and I'm going to have every eye and every camera on me as soon I walk in the place -- I'm well used to this. Despite women that routinely carry around giant ungodly purses, they're fine. Me with a backpack? Gimme me the death penalty I guess. So to avoid all this, I usually try to leave my backpack with my bike, but because today I had a fairly expensive laptop in there, I didn't want to leave it outside...because it'd get stolen. So I bring my backpack in, I grab a few things, I even talk to the person behind the meat counter so I could get some tenderloins...everything's fine up to this point. I talk to another worker, trying to find an energy drink, and then I go to pay for my items in the self-checkout. At this point I realize my wallet is in my backpack, I didn't have it in my pocket because I'd been at the gym earlier, and left those pants in my bag. And then at this point, some ginger kid approaches me and asks to look in my bag. At first I agree, telling the kid he's going to look awfully stupid, but then I refuse on general principle, telling them they can check their cameras if they'd like, and I was just going to go, without the items. The Opie ginger kid then asks if I want to talk to the manager. I say sure. But then I'm standing there waiting for several minutes waiting to talk to a manager about something that I should've never been forced to deal with in the first place. So I leave. After I'm in the parking lot unlocking my bike, the ruthless chubby ginger kid comes out. He's not done. Blood in his eyes and probably some in his hair too, phone in hand, talking to what I assume to be the police or maybe the manager. He's basically doing a play-by-play on the phone, relaying everything I'm doing. I yell some things and I ride off into the sunset. But afterward, here's the kicker...I begin to have doubts about how I handled the situation, because I was in a state of high emotions at the time. So after thinking about it, I decided to give the store a call in order to explain my side of things. Someone answers, I tell them I'm the person whom they just asked to search their backpack, and I started explaining why I got upset, when I overhear the person put the phone down and talk to what I assumed to be the manager, and they're saying "It's the guy who shoplifted.". Now, the problem I have with this whole situation is, despite me routinely going to this place multiple times a week, and even PREVIOUSLY earlier that VERY SAME DAY, either I'm the dumbest thief on the planet earth, who has knowingly walked into a store that he goes to frequently, with a plan to steal from it while wearing a backpack, I then draw attention to myself by choosing to talk to multiple employees in the store, and THEN I've apparently chosen to steal items in the worst possible position in the store (the self checkout line, in full view of five completely braindead overpaid teenagers who work there, whose literal only job is to watch you), and then used a locked bicycle as the worst possible getaway vehicle. And then...for some reason, after that, I then decide it's a great idea to call the store back that I've just allegedly tried to steal from. To do what exactly? If all this is correct, Opie deserves a raise. Or... Fareway on 53rd needs to take it down a notch as well. They were wrong, and should apologize. Especially Opie.
