What I miss are good *butchers* (I loved Schmeisser's in Niles)

And, a *good* bagel (haven't had one of those in decades!)

Schmeisser's is about a mile and a half from me, but I haven't shopped
there.

They were pretty pricey. But, had good cuts of meat and were
excellent at preparing cuts to order.

in the past. Here, its hard to find many "ethnic" foods (besides
mexican)]
