Food Shopping In Houston Just Got Easier!

[gfpaperdoll]

I just called the manager at Central Market to see if they would order the Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips, which even Whole Foods does not carry, here. He said that two weeks ago they expanded their gluten free selection of foods & created an 8 foot section of wheat free & gluten free foods!!!!! OMG, how exciting.

I have not been in the store in about a month!!! It is all I can do to not drive over there this afternoon!

He said that he would have the Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips for me by Friday!!!!

Have I died & gone to Heaven???????

Anybody else seeing changes in your area grocery stores????

That's awesome! Do you know of anything on the far NW side of houston? Unfortunately Central Market is quite far from me *bleh*

I am in Tomball/Spring/Klein/Woodlands-ish area

I do not know anything in the Northwest Side. Central Market has never even had a gluten-free section must less 8 Feet!! Do you have a Whole Foods up there? a Kroger signature store? In Austin the Kroger stores & the HEB stores have a lot of gluten-free foods.

I think Central Market would be worth the trip from where you are. I would make it an all day outing. How about a Saturday morning matinee at the IMAX Edwards Theater at 610 & I-10 West. Then lunch at any number of places, like Carrabas, Pei Wei, Pappadeaux, Pappasitoes, P F Chang's, then swing over to Central Market inside the loop on Westheimer. Take a cooler of course. Across the street at Rice Supermarket, pick up some See's Chocolates. Then you could swing by Whole Foods on Kirby & Alabama (take Westheimer to Kirby & take a right, WF on the left.

Take a couple of short cuts & get across I-10 at Waugh Drive, (there is also a Pei Wei on Waugh Drive) which cuts thru the Heights take a right to Airline & then a left on Airline, then Cannino's Farmers market on the right. They are open till 8:00p,m, each night. When you have bought more goodies than you can eat in 3 weeks, continue on Airline two blocks to 610 loop right near 45 North & back home...

Have the refrig empty & ready for a "cooking" day the next day!!!!!!!

Or early in day head to the Museum of Natural Science or Museum of Art - you can eat at Cafe Express in the Musuem of art. Take your own food for the Museum of Science. Cut thru to Kirby on the return trip, can eat dinner at Goode's Barbeque on Kirby, continue past Whole Foods to Westheimer (also a Carrabbas on Kirby) & take a left to Central Market. Continue on Westhimer headed West & get on the 610 loop & head home or stop at the Imax Edwards Theatre. The Container Stores is also at Westheimer right outside the loop, across the street from the Galleria. Love their glass containers etc.
