This is a peek into Al's Market & Deli, which is under construction

It was previously noted that Al’s Market and Deli would be opening on Asylum Street in Hartford. What I did not know then was the extent of this development.

Last night, on Asylum Street, I overheard a considerably irritated man grousing: “what the *bleep* do I have to do to get a bodega sandwich?!”

The Hartford Business Journal reports that this market will have hours that actually acknowledge the existence of city residents: weekdays 7am to 10 or 11pm and weekends until 3am. So, if you need yourself a bodega sandwich at 9pm, you’ll soon be able to get one.

The Hartford Courant also has published about the grocery store.
