Countdown to St. Patrick's Day at Key Food

Photos by Stacie Joy 

St. Patrick's Day is fast approaching (Thursday!) ... and Key Food has you covered with not one but two displays here on Avenue A at Fourth Street. 

As you enter the grocery — by the deli, sushi and cakes for any occasion — you have your Irish soda bread, Hot Cross Buns, etc.
And in the back... at the start of aisle 6... you have Guinness, more soda bread, cabbage, corned beef and Kerrygold butter. Not to mention pierogis and quiche (a new tradition courtesy of Key?) ...

  1. I actually bought the soda bread, which is pretty good.

    I'm assuming my neighbor bought all the cabbages and is steaming them in a cauldron, which is making the entire building stink like corpses. Happy St Pat's! LOL.

  3. All I know is that keyfood raised their prices on a beverage I buy weekly. It went from $7 to $10.50. all items went up. Their prices are higher on items I can get cheaper at whole foods.

  5. Key Food has upped its game. Their pierogis are pretty good as is the Lithuanian light rye bread formally only available at Baczynski's. I prefer to shop small local venues but sometimes one-stop-shopping wins out for convenience.

  6. Hot cross buns have nothing to do with Saint Patrick's Day. They are a symbol of Christianity's Lent.
