Boynton Beach

[sammy]

HELP! Going to Boynton Beach this weekend for my mother's birthday. My wife and I will be making brunch for her and several of her friends and, not being familiar with the area, would like to know about good places to buy bread/produce/meat/fish/groceries. All my mother knows from is Publix.

Thanks for your help!

"The Boys" on Linton Blvd. is probably your best bet.

I love The Boys! They have a deli and a great selection of produce. They're actually on Military Trail just north of Atlantic Boulevard in Delray Beach, 14378 Military Trail. They also have lots of stuff out for tasting. My favorites are the mozzarella balls in olive oil with sundried tomatoes and basil and the honeybell oranges (or are they tangerines? either way they're very sweet.)

There's also a Whole Foods at 1400 Glades Road in Boca Raton-- haven't been to that one, but they do great takeout stuff, including soups, salads & deli.

Thanks for the correction - here's the address:

14378 Military Trail

It's one of the better Whole Foods. Also good is Kings Market on Military trail just south of Glades (but Glades goes over Military trail, they don't intersect).

Kings has the best shrimp salad, large prawns in it.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I'll try The Boys first and go to Whole Foods and/or Kings if necessary.

The Boy's is like a non stop traffic jam of alta-koka's

You're right, but I just go really early - like right when they open - which I tend to do in NY as well - saves a lot of aggravation.

Or I could go late, around 4:00 PM, while everyone's out eating dinner.

I actually went at 5, and it was pretty bearable - but call to see how "late" they're open.
