Lakeview suggestions?

Hi, Im in town for a few days and staying in Lakeview. I am looking for great things within walking distance. Especially bakeries, grocers, and cheap ethnic snacks. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Patrick

    Bakeries:
    - Bittersweet
    - House of Fine Chocolate
    - The Bagel - not a bakery...but great bagel and a fun stop

    Grocers:
    There really aren't any expensive ones in the area, but there is a new Whole Foods on Halsted south of Addison and a Treasure Island on Broadway north of Addison

    General Inexpensive options:
    - Ann Sathers - Swedish, classic Chicago venue, amazing cinnamon rolls
    - Thai Classic or Joy's - BYOB thai spots
    - Mama Desta's Red Sea - BYOB Ethiopian restaurant
    - Wally & Agador's - fancy sandwichs (approx $9), but really good

    Hope this helps!
