There are green markets, delis, bakeries, grocery stores, specialty stores. And then there's the Epicure Market, a combination of all of them, and a front-runner of the gourmet food emporium. A long-time destination in Miami Beach, Epicure is about to become the latest draw in Boca Raton: Wolfie Cohen's Rascal House proprietor, Jerry's Famous Deli, also owns Epicure.
