Tropic Juice Bar and Grill on Court.

Back when this place, which we now know is called Tropic, at 205 Court first put up signs we reported on it and although we didn't write it into the blog we were convinced it was called "Ropie" because the sign wasn't that legible.  Well, it is now.  Bright and legible. The last time we walked by this place it looked only days away from being open so we assume it is now.  Being right across the street from nectar juice seemed odd but after we got a peek inside we realized they are completely different.  Tropic actually looks more like a corner store, a place to stop in for a quick juice to go. 

Trader Joe's New Look.

The Trader Joe's on Atlantic and Court has always had one big flaw.  Lines!!! The line was always so long at any given point and the main problem with it was that it made it really hard to look down the last aisle, with the cereal and snacks.  The two line set up was spilling into that aisle making it possible for only one cart at a time to walk through.  They have solved that problem!  They now have a 3 line set up and have added registers and the last aisle is wider and has a divider.  We went on a weekend and as packed as the store was the lines moved quickly.  Good solution.  If the waiting has kept you away from TJ's you should give it another shot.
