I can sympathize. While there are good shops all over New York (most, but not all, in Manhattan), everybody has preferences that make a certain "flight pattern" necessary. It helps to have a "second choice" location for acceptable produce, meats, fish, etc., so you can combine as many stops into as tight a pattern as possible, not because efficiency is necessarily the watchword of my life, but just because sometimes there isn't any other way to get everything you need to do, done.
