Seriously, What Questions About Wegmans?

I was joshing Saturday when I posted a question for the manager of the new Columbia Wegmans, but Rob has actually pulled off an interview.

Rob is going to meet with the new manager on Wednesday.  He is a big Wegmans fan.  He'll ask about whether the store will have the WKids program where they'll watch your kids while you shop.  He'll ask whatever else you want to know.

What else would you want to ask?

    #1Will the Columbia Wegmans offer the fish bar similar to the one @ Wegmans in Fairfax.
    in the Fairfac Wegmans you can sit at a bar and have clams, mussels or any fresh fish of the day prepared right there for you. Fairfax also offers a nice wine by the glass which sadly the Columbia store won't be able to do.
    #2 Can Wegmans look into creating a really nice dark flavorful rye pumpernickel type bread. Also a dense sourdough bread similar to Poilane.
    Many thanks.

    I'm looking for half a dozen duck legs to use in a cassoulet. Will Wegmans offer cut up duck in their poultry section.
    Am also looking for Merquez and Toulouse style sausage.
    And a more extensive selection of cheddar chesses. i.e. Isle of Mull cheddar.

    Will the Wegman's in Columbia have a Beer & Wine License?
    Will Wegmans offer custom ordering in the bakery and meat/fish departments?
    Delivery? Catering?
    What kind of Special Events can we look forward to?

    This is great! You guys really know what you want. I am writing all of the questions down. If we don't have time to answer them all during the Q&A, I will leave them with Wendy for follow up.

    What sort of Grand Opening will take place? I think there could be quite an event that could draw a crowd.

    Tell me more about this WKids program.

    And to answer Jimmy in Columbia. No beer & wine. Blame MD's draconian liquor laws. Contact your representatives...

    @P90 -- I think the liquor question may be slightly more complex. Wegmans won't sell wine or beer. But I understand from Wegmans that they built a separate storefront into this building. So there will be an independent liquor store somehow connected or next to the grocery.

    Thanks for the heads up on the liquor store. I can't wait to see how this plays out.
