Though it harkens to the neighborhood's Scandinavian heritage, this grocer-caterer also serves American breakfast specials and Italian deli standards. Hafi brand lingonberry preserves (400 g.; $4.99), from Sweden, pack considerable tartness (and a little sweetness) into every jellied spoonful; the buckshot-size berries nestle happily in the pocked surface of ryecrisp.
Return visit: You might mistake Chivers gooseberry jam (400 g.; $5.49), from Ireland, for a less-tart lime, if not for the plentiful ovoid berries. Wonderful.
