Food Scene
Big City Coffee is one of our favorite places - it's always packed and their meals are HUGE. Very fresh, not fried, homemade goodness. You wont be disappointed. TIP: Do not go to Big City in a hurry. Think of slow Southern service - kick your feet up with your coffee and relax.

Essentials
Fred Meyer is great, but it can be a little over-priced. It's great for a quick run to the store, but I wouldn't recommend doing all of your shopping at Fred Meyer if you're on a budget. It does have a nice stock of other items (clothing, shoes, toiletries, home good, etc.)
