Convenient but Too Small for All Your Needs It's great to be able to pick up what you need when you're in a pinch in the North End.

The landlords at the time was Lentros a wonderful Greek family, which I still have fond memories. I will check back for the answers... but I was looking for something else on the net... so away I go...
Going Bananas is amazing customer service i just walked into Goin Bananas to grab some chicken to make pesto for dinner. there wasnt any on the shelf, and they didnt have any in the back, so i said "thanks anyway" and kept walking down the street. 2 blocks later, i felt a tap on my shoulder. the girl from the store had run down the street to tell me that she'd found some chicken in the back. wow! when would that ever have happened at a big grocery store? never. what awesome customer service from this locally owned store.
