An Open Letter to Central Market
Dear Central Market,
I love food. No, really, I do! When my friends and family come to town do I take them to the museum? No. Do I take them to Mt. Bonnell? No. In fact, I’m much more likely to take them to Central Market where I wax poetically about your cheese selection. I walk them through the wine section, noting the envy in their eyes. I stroll casually through your bread aisles filling their olfactory senses with the scent of freshly baked bread. I point out the fresh produce and international foods and bulk items until they are dizzy with jealousy and all the while I smile smugly.
This is all wonderful but it’s not good enough.
Why, oh why, must you let me suffer at the hands of one WalMart after another closing in on me? You’ve fulfilled the dreams of the Southies, so what about us Northies?
Please, oh please, I implore you, bring a Central Market closer to me!
Your pfriend in Pflugerville,
Kyla

Hi from Houston…also a big fan of Central Market. Whole Foods. Trader Joes. And, of course, Austin too.

I wish we had Trader Joes in Tx. Maybe my next letter should be to them! Heh. Whole Foods is my other love here in Austin. Our new one downtown is fantastic! I could live there.
