Seven Mile Market - supposedly the largest kosher supermarket in the country.

Market Maven (formerly Seasons) - great prices for meat and chicken, also good place for shabbos food

Eruv Inn
Edelweiss - Located about 15 minutes from the frum community, practically next door to Ateres Elka wedding hall

The situation is not cut and dried there
What dies this mean?
"The cRc official position is that we are no longer recommending or not recommending Krispy Kreme across the USA."

So they have no opinion on it? or are they just stating twice that they don't recommend it....?

I have to type in each restaurant individually, if someone already knows if any of them are on Uber Eats it would be a lot easier.
