Where is the best gift shop category? I would love to give some publicity to some great local businesses, but they don't fit these categories...could you add that?

Which local businesses are your thinking of, Betsy? Knowing would help us determine categories for the future. Thanks.

The Picket Fence in Burke is a great, family-owned business that offers gifts, home decor, and great customer service.

The Picket Fence is my choice. It's at Burke Centre where the Giant is. Spartans is my favorite eatery.

@Betsy: I'll make a note to include gift shops the next round of Patch Readers' Choice. @Eleni: This round we're voting on best chinese carryout. This past winter it was Italian restaurants. There will probably be some restaurant genre in the future. Which kind of restaurant do you recommend we consider in the future?
