I live right on top of a grocer. It's fucking great.
I'll start cooking something, only to realize I'm missing something. I can literally turn off the stove, walk out the door and be back to continue before anything has cooled enough to affect the dish.
We finally moved to a city with actual local businesses. Bring able to walk 50m to a reasonably priced grocery store is a game changer. It's so much better than having the weekly 3-4 hour long Costco + WinCo trip to stock up a huge pantry.
I read that as walk 50 minutes and not meters. I was thinking about how terrible that walk home with groceries must be.
Yeah, that'd be way too far. With a 50 minute walking radius from here I could hit about 20 grocery stores. Using the public transit that doubles or triples.
Nah, it's almost visible from our apartment's front door. We have to cross one street where traffic really never gets above 15mph and the biggest danger is tripping on one of the tram tracks (did I mention the multiple railed transit routes here as well?).
