The Midtown Fresh grocery story, in the former Harding's - south of downtown, had its soft opening yesterday, and it looks good. Reminds me a bit of a Trader Joe's or Whole Foods. There's a cafe, a full kitchen with two full-time chefs, and curbside pickup. Eventually there will be a pharmacy and an eat-in dining area. This is an important addition for a community near the downtown core.
