South End’s Lionette’s puts emphasis on sustainable & local
by Bianca Lee
Locavores, rejoice! James Lionette runs his market according to the traditions of old world food purveyors, All prepared foods--from the meatballs to cold salads--are made with farm-fresh, seasonal ingredients. Lionette puts a premium on sustainability, which means you can be sure that every last scrap of lamb or pig he butchers in-house is put to delicious use. Peruse groceries, like artisanal jams, unfiltered cold pressed extra virgin olive oil and cheese (there are typically about 50 local varieties from which to choose). Nearly 200 local producers supply everything on his shelves. He’s not kidding when he says the store’s stock is “airplane free.”

Don't go here. It is a small place and while they get a whole pig and lamb and butcher it themselves, and have assorted cuts of beef, the best stuff goes fast. I don't want to have to compete with any more customers for this outrageously delicious meat. Sure they always accommodate me when I call ahead but I enjoy the convenience of strolling in and seeing an array of organic meats to choose from. If you have not become accustomed to this level of meat, you don't know what you are missing anyway, so please stay away.
