Aspiring Bodega Owner #1: Hey, Partner, let’s start a bodega.
Aspiring Bodega Owner #2: Great idea, buddy. Where?
Aspiring Bodega Owner #1: How about four doors down from an existing deli?
Aspiring Bodega Owner #2: Great idea! We can’t lose! GMAP
Update: The 713 Deli has actually been closed for a while so maybe the folks opening the new place at 707 Fulton are actually business geniuses and it’s our commentary that’s superfluous!

  1. IMBY: Hagelslag! My Dutch stepmother used to let us put hagelslag on our buttered bread for breakfast. The original Dutch hagelslag are much more chocolately than any chocolate sprinkles I’ve eaten in America.

    I’ve never heard the word “jimmies” before. It’s “sprinkles” here in the mid-Atlantic region.

    However, Wikipedia says sprinkles are also called “hundreds of thousands” or “jimmie jams.”

    Wber, your theory only sometimes applies. Grocery stores, laundermats, etc. want to be as far apart from each other as possible unless they fill a niche. Items you comparison shop for like shoes want to be near each other.

    Also, the other deli is on its way out. There for a for rent sign on the other deli a couple weeks back.
