I don&#8217;t even know where to begin y&#8217;all. I guess let&#8217;s just start with the parking lot. We went on a Wednesday night and there was absolutely no parking. This place was packed like Armageddon was coming and everyone was stocking up for an apocalypse, except they brought their fancy Lamborghinis, Ferraris, and Bentleys &#8212; to the grocery store. Laurie told us that this was apparently THE grocery store for single ladies to hang out and meet rich dudes. So the meat section is quite literally a &#8220;meat market&#8221; &#8211; LOL.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/55212329926\/\"  title=\"Untitled\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/55212329926_b09d070bf4.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"Untitled\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The inside reminds me of Gucci Dillons (for the unfamiliar, Gucci Dillons is what we call the Dillons Marketplace at Central and Rock &#8211; it is the fanciest Dillons in Wichita &#8211; probably fancier than Whole Foods, even) but on steroids. I don&#8217;t even know how to describe it. They had multiple restaurants INSIDE the grocery store and they had a live band playing music &#8212; on a Wednesday night. Unique is an understatement. It&#8217;s the craziest thing I&#8217;ve ever seen. I&#8217;ve never had a supermarket experience quite like this one.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/55212573194\/in\/photostream\/\"  title=\"Untitled\"><img src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/55212573194_796a3db83b_c.jpg\" width=\"500\" alt=\"Untitled\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/55211386242\/in\/photostream\/\"  title=\"Untitled\"><img src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/55211386242_5f020cc461_c.jpg\" width=\"500\" alt=\"Untitled\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We explored the store for a bit to take it all in.
