It is located in the ["South Wedge"] neighborhood of Rochester. They offer a variety of organic and non-organic foods, and even offer free classes on various topics such as eating healthy and aromatherapy. - - [[Comments]] - ------ - ''2007-05-24 10:26:36'' [[nbsp]] Small but decent selection, they have canned goods and even some vegetables and the prices seem fair (for organic). --["TravisOwens"] - ------ - ''2007-10-11 22:59:34'' [[nbsp]] I hear that they will be closing. --["ScottHendler"] - ------ - ''2007-10-12 00:26:28'' [[nbsp]] Shocker. Everything at this place was overpriced. --["WegmansFiend"] - ------ - ''2007-10-24 12:13:49'' [[nbsp]] An article in the D&C online today mentioned that its last day will be October 31st and they are closing because of an illness in the family. --["SaraChristine"] - ------ - ''2007-12-11 00:26:25'' [[nbsp]] I noticed a sign on the windows that said something else was moving in. Forgot what it was, Something Market, or something along those lines. --["JohnJoseph"] - ------ - ''2007-12-11 07:33:50'' [[nbsp]] I think it's called Mise en Place market, which in French is typically used to indicate 'everything in place' or 'bottled here' if you see it on a wine bottle. The more literal translation is 'put in place'. In cooking, it refers to having all you ingredients and utensils ready to go before cooking, so maybe it'll be another of those shops where you pick up partially prepared meals and bring them home to finish cooking them. --["RachelBlumenthal"] - ------ - ''2007-12-11 08:49:14'' [[nbsp]] According to the lady I spoke to last week, who happens to works in the coffee shop next door (coffee connection?), she told me it's supposed to be a deli. - - I'm hard pressed to understand why a deli could not thrive in the south wedge; Wilson Farms by so. clinton and No. Goodman seems to be thriving. - - The Greengrocer was a noble effort, but obviously not what the neighborhood wanted. --["MrPhil"] - ------ - ''2007-12-11 08:53:02'' [[nbsp]] Seems like a nice spot for a deli! It's a pretty large space, too. Any idea when they're opening? --["RachelBlumenthal"] - ------ - ''2007-12-11 08:57:12'' [[nbsp]] Rachel, - - Lady behind the counter didn't know. It is a perfect spot for a deli. That corner of the south wedge is shaping up nicely as a village unto itself. --["MrPhil"] - ------ - ''2007-12-11 13:48:27'' [[nbsp]] "Mise en place" is also used in France (and now internationally) to describe how a table is prepared for a meal (cloths, dishes, silveware, - glassware, ornaments, ...): "Sirio Maccioni's Le Cirque in NYC sports a luxurious mise en place" or how a dish is prepared and presented for a customer: "The mise en place of my Filet mignon a la Rossini resembled a Pollock painting." --["AndreaCogliati"] - ------ - ''2007-12-11 17:14:44'' [[nbsp]] I was excited for months before the Green Grocer opened, but then was so disappointed when I first stopped in. The half-empty shelves were lined up at angles so that it looked like they were desperately trying to fill up space. Prices were okay, but the selection was so limited that it just wasn't worth my time. Unfortunately, I'm not surprised it didn't make it. --["ChelseaAllinger"] - ------ - ''2008-01-07 18:55:16'' [[nbsp]] It WAS a beautiful store, prices notwithstanding. I'm glad I patronized the store during the brief time it was open. I bought two sets of miniature African beaded-wire baskets with lids at $15.00 each . . . not a bad price, I thought. I wanted to get more of those African beaded keychains . . . anyone have any idea where else in the city I can find them? --["LindaLevitan"] - ------ - ''2008-01-19 03:04:18'' [[nbsp]] it'd be nice to have a grocery, even though this seems to show it wouldn't work. Something with more selection that a corner store, but doesn't have to be as big as a wegman's. I find it hard to believe it wouldn't succeed. I can't be the only one in the area that would rather have a grocery in the neighborhood than have to drive to the suburbs to get stuff. Unless I am out of the loop, I can't really think of a place with an alright selection of grocery items and fresh fruits/vegtables.--["JohnJoseph"] - ------ - ''2008-01-19 11:27:48'' [[nbsp]] I lived in Brooklyn for 3 years and plenty of stores the same size as the green grocer thrived with a full selection of groceries. Sure, they didn't have 10 brands of peanut butter, but they had everything. Deli counter, meat,fish, fresh fruits/veggies, frozen section, organic, non-organic, pet stuff...etc It's getting everything to gel at the same time that can be difficult. I applaud the green grocer for trying to fill a void. I'm sure it wasn't easy to get off the ground. Hopefully the next tenant will expand on what was started. --["MarcVera"] - ------ - ''2008-01-19 15:33:52'' [[nbsp]] Brooklyn has a much higher population density than even urban neighborhoods in Rochester. Plus many Rochesterians own cars and it's not that much of a hassle to drive to Wegmans. - - I was really hoping this place would make it, but was disappointed when I went in. I think it focused on organic, high end stuff too much. All that is great, but sometimes you just want Diet Pepsi and Doritos (which apparently is why Wilson Farms can make a go of it). --["JasonHaremza"] - ------ - ''2008-01-27 09:46:39'' [[nbsp]] The owner of the new store stopped in at the Tap & Mallet last night and reports that opening is imminent, perhaps as soon as Friday. If all goes well, that'll be the penultimate stop on next weekend's shopping trip. --["RyanTucker"] - ------ - ''2008-01-29 16:12:09'' [[nbsp]] I am friends with the owner of Mis en Place, and it will be opening on friday morning. There will be breakfast ready to go from what I hear, and yes prepared foods, think mini wegmans, good selection, good prices, and from personal experience, the food is delicious, the owner (casey) was a sous chef at 2vine for many years,, I`m very excited to see it open friday and cant wait to eat here, its hours are going to be 8am-9pm mon-sat --["AndyDean"] - ------ - ''2008-01-29 16:15:37'' [[nbsp]] forgot to mention, full deli-boars head, olive bar, produce, salad bar,,etc. --["AndyDean"] - ------ - ''2008-01-29 16:27:54'' [[nbsp]] sweet, produce. Thats what I haven't been able to find within bike distance except at the brighton tops. --["JohnJoseph"] - ------ - ''2008-01-29 18:07:45'' [[nbsp]] It'd be nice for places to be open on Sunday. --["MarcVera"] - ------ - ''2008-02-15 11:40:07'' [[nbsp]] Mis en Place is great. I've been there a few times already. They have a variety of Boylan's sodas and a pretty complete deli. Their broccoli salad is delicious. They are getting many comments about being open for a few hours on Sunday and are thinking about it. It's a great addition to the neighborhood. --["MarcVera"] - ------ - ''2008-02-17 19:55:21'' [[nbsp]] I would disagree with the statement that everything at the former South Wedge Green Grocer was overpriced, in fact the dairy products that were offered, I believe the milk products were a Syracuse-based dairy and was much cheaper than either S & A at the intersection of Hickory Street and South Avenue, or Highland Market at the corner of South Avenue and Linden or Gujar Mart at the corner of Gregory Street and Mount Hope Avenue. I bought a quart of Bison brand Sour Cream at South Wedge Green Grocer but they didn't have enough and had to walk to Wilson Farms to buy more. I found the same product, same size for .35 cents less than South Wedge Green Grocer. Since Wilson Farms is a larger regional chain, shouldn't their price be FAR less than Green Grocers? --["ShawnWallace"] - ------ - ''2008-02-17 19:59:44'' [[nbsp]] I think Mis En Place is great. I bought a rotisserie Chicken a week ago. The big difference between Mis En Place and Wegmans/Tops (which everything is compared to) is that no matter what Subaru Wagon you drive, to what Wegmans or Tops you shop at, you cannot get there, make your purchase and get back home with the rotisserie chicken still piping hot. But I can have a rotisserie chicken from door to door in under 2 minutes, including the sales process with my chicken still hot and with only a few dollars more than Wegmans. --["ShawnWallace"]	+ #redirect Mise en Place Market
