This is a delightful new store, that is adding to the special ambiance of San Francisco. The stock of oils vinegars & pastas is bountiful, the decor esthetic, the help very helpful, and the tastings delicious. I bought persian lime scented olive oil, and fresh summer peach balsamic vinegar. They go together terrifically to make a very refreshing salad dressing.
It was absolutely beautiful, I never thought that so many oils even exist, but they do, and I had a wonderful time tasting them to see which one was perfect for my taste. The service was very good. I bought the Blood Orange Oil and White Premium Balsamic Vinegar, and they were delicious together. And the pasta was fun; my daughter is a big chocolate fan, so she found chocolate pasta.
We're so excited to be a part of the community and this neighborhood. Thank you, Me'irah, Lisa, for your compliments!

Our "Thank you Noe Valley" Grand Opening is this Sunday, July 29 from 3-6. A local acoustic band, Wildhawk, will be setting the mood while neighbors can mingle, sample treats (mom has updated her pound cake recipes with olive oil - no kidding - bye bye Donna Reed!), beverages such as our new wave Italian sodas with flavored balsamics - don't knock 'em til you try 'em - and of course, special deals that you won't be able to resist! Or just stop by to say, 'hello' and how happy you are we aren't another nail salon! ;)
