READERS' PICK: Produce at Reay's makes the grade,
with everything from arugula and chervil to Driscoll strawberries,
forest mushrooms, plantains and seasonal persimmons, pomegranates,
tomatoes-on-the-vine, wax beans and watermelon, and, and, and--on
and on, all the way to zucchini. But even within a category--say
onions--they offer yellow, small white, large white, pearl, red,
green, leeks, chives and so on. There are genres and sub-genres
of organic pleasures you didn't even know existed. Additionally,
about a full third of Reay's produce section is certified organic.
Everything is fresh: Leafy produce is frequently irrigated, and
even the most tender summer fruits appear to be monitored for
molds and imperfections.
