Di Bruno's in Philadelphia -- Very Good!
Di Bruno's is equal parts cheese shop, bakery, butcher, sandwich shop, deli and fruit stand. Sound like a grocery store? Well, it is, but without all the peripheral items, and more like the gourmet aisle than the 2-for-1 aisle.
I like Di Bruno's a lot -- although, if you are expecting Trader Joe's you might be disappointed, some of the items can be expensive. But, I just bought Fuji apples for $1. 40 a pound, which is an excellent price, so you never know.
If you like cheese, you'll love Di Bruno's. They have a good selection of Italian cheeses as well as well cheese's from other nations, and Italian meats like pepperoni, salami, prosciutto in dozens of varieties. If you are a food lover it is hard not to like this place.
Upstairs, in the Center City store Di Bruno's has a roomy dining area with buffet salad bar, sandwich bar. The salad bar usually has a fresh hot item or two, like pasta, or a meat dish.
