Worth the trip... and the wait?

Mr Boozly took a jaunt up to Shoreline today for blog research related purposes, or as it is sometimes known, blog-connaissance. There he visited the Central Market up at Aurora and 155th, in hopes of finding a spirit section in line with their ample, interesting, and unique beer and wine selection.

Partial Success! Depending on how you measure success. If you measure it by finding Actual liquor, success was at a bare minimum. Even zero. But if you count the promise of future liquor, and we do here at Seattle Booze Hound, the visit was a ray of hope. They didn't get the head start of a Greenwood Safeway for example, but a promising sign was posted at the front of the store reading, verbatim*: "Spirits are coming soon, check back for our unique selection."

Given their beer and wine selection's focus on great quality and small producers, we have high hopes for liquor worth the trip. Until then, we'll wait.
