Gardner's Market

When Whole Foods seems too overwhelming or impersonal, head to cozy market-bistro Gardner's Market to pick up imported beluga and a latte or a scone. The gourmet shop offers prepared salads, a hot foods section, and a station where sandwiches and burgers ($6.99) are made to-order. The staff doesn't seem to fit the image that Gardner's is trying to project - employees are mostly uninformed, if accommodating - and the store is highly unorganized. No takeout menus, business cards, or other standard informative materials are on hand. But Gardner's offers a terrific takeout deal called meals for four ($19.99), which includes four servings of turkey meatloaf, mashed potatoes, French green beans, and a baguette.
