I don't think the premise is correct. I've lived all over in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and don't think that Manhattan is lacking in grocery stores.
I don't see how D'Ag, Westside Mkt., Food Emporium, Amish Market, Grace's etc. are worse than Safeway, Kroger, Jewel/Osco, etc. If anything, some are better, though more expensive.
I always thought Westside Market locations were great. Pretty cheap, 24/7, great produce and good prepared foods.
Now there are some bad or overpriced markets too, but there's enough decent ones that there's at least a few options.
