I went in the tiny little Royal St. store in New Orleans' French Quarter this evening. Looked mostly the same thus far, with one small exception: NO COFFEE GRINDERS! As far as I know, AP NO hasn't been sold yet, so they're still in APTEA's hands. If I can get by there in the morning, I'll take a picture.

All the A&Ps and A&P-owned Sav-A-Centers in the New Orleans area were sold to Rouse's (a local grocery chain) last fall. The French Quarter A&P (on Royal) is now a Rouse's (I went there last week.)

At the time of my original message, the division hadn't been sold yet (I was there at Labor Day; the buyout was announced a few weeks later). My understanding is that Rouses won't change much.
