Royal's Market

Josephs is a wonderful market. I go there when no time to cook - for their very fresh prepared meals. Excellent and healthy choices! So much better than any fast food but just as fast. Their produce, meat, even flowers are always excellent. Staff is extremely courteous and helpful. We also had them cater a party and everything was on time and hot.

***BEST PIZZA AROUND***The only thing I miss about the NYC area (which I left a long, long time ago) is the pizza. Some people says it's the water, some the dough. This is the first place elsewhere that gets it right. It even folds perfectly, which is the only real test for great pizza. Something in there for everybody--best margherita pizza I've ever had, just bursting with rich cheeses, garlic, and tomatoes; superb pepperoni with a fabulous sauce with a whiff of arrabiata marinara; gorgeous white with medallions of real mozz (I think); a Sicilian that is so well constructed you can pull it out of the fridge two days later, throw it an a saute pan with fresh toppings, and it's still 9/10. They also have top-notch desserts including two types of brownie, about 5"X5" for $4--a la mode you could serve four adults. Roast beef $9 a pound (Publix: $14?), Italian specialties. Friendly service, great layout. A true oasis in a food desert.
