re: Alexander's Market Opening Today in Baton Rouge

Went Saturday and went up and down all of the the exceptionally narrow aisles, and walked out without buying anything. I didn't see anything that I couldn't get from my usual Mathernes/Calandros/Fresh Market rotation, and at lower prices. Staff were extremely nice and helpful, store was clean and well lit and laid out (other than the skinny arse spacing), but I would've rather shop at the Rouses in Lafayette as my something different than Alexander's. And I have driven to Murray's Superette several times for my Jamabalya ingredients in contests. Did see the Blue Icon, left it for my hopheads.
