• This last week we have been fortunate to see the return of the delicious Creekstone Natural prime strip steaks.  We cut these steaks from the loin ourselves, so they are consistently  12 oz  and 1 1/4” thick.  Either pan seared or grilled these are the best; great flavor and that wonderful ‘tooth’.

• Our new Guatemalan coffee from Huehuetenango El Injerto keeps getting better as we work on the perfect roast for it.  With new crop coffees it is sometime a challenge because they are so bright and vivacious that the flavors don’t come through unless we push the roast.  Anyway  it is a beautiful coffee, very complex with those cocoa overtones that we look for in coffees from this area.  We buy this coffee directly from the farm .  Today the farm is managed by the third and fourth generation of the Aguirre family.

• Way upstairs the Second Story our Emporium of good stuff for less is in full swing. All through the winter we search for bargains, closeouts and discontinued items that we can offer to you at substantial savings.
