Let’s face it, folks, I don’t think Mr. Harris Teeter is coming to the Willow Oaks shopping center. I don’t see any movement, any contractor trucks, people walking in or out of the store surveying. Any deadline of opening by Christmas or the first of year by now is not going to happen.
Last March, I was in Long Island, New York and visited a wonderful grocery store called, “Uncle Giuseppe’s”. Of course by the sounding of its name, the store specializes in Italian food products, from cheeses, pastas, meats, deserts, etc…
As you can tell, my last name is Italian and I grew up with this food and miss these specialty items in the most heartfelt way. (Even as I am typing this post, my mouth is drooling and I am getting hungry for some stuffed shells).
Since I am a Real Estate Associate Broker, I can see what I can do to entice them to open a store in our area. I would love it to be Willow Oaks.
Look at the photos. I will attach a video that I recorded. The day we went we were serenaded by an Italian tenor who was actually singing live in the store! It was such a GREAT experience.
