My friends held an indoor picnic (it started to rain that day) and I thought that a charcuterie…read moreboard would be fitting. I emailed on Tuesday for pick up on Saturday and Mimi responded pretty quickly. I ordered the Medium Charcuterie Board ($150), without nuts. Pick up went smoothly, I was instructed to keep it refrigerated until it actually came time to bring out the board to eat. They did give me a pack of crackers to go with the meats and cheeses but it wasn't enough and I had to go to the store to buy an extra box. The charcuterie board was a great hit with the party. A lot of people complimented it and it turned out so pretty. There was a good variety of meats and cheeses along with some fruit. There were also a couple mini tongs so that people wouldn't struggle to grab the pieces. A lot of people were impressed by the board so I'll be sure to come here again whenever I have another event that calls for a charcuterie board.

If I could give Mimi 10 stars I would!

But they did, and they ate EVERYTHING. Thank you Mimi for making our day so magical! I will for sure hire her again the next time we need a board or table!

Baker and Olive is a specialty store known for its high-quality olive oils, balsamic vinegars, and…read moregourmet food products. I love going to specialty stores for specific products, in my opinion the products are better curated and higher quality. This shop is my go-to for balsamic vinegars and their impressive gift boxes, containing four bottles of oils and vinegars. They're perfect for housewarmings or gifts for cooking enthusiasts. Before buying, you can sample every oil and vinegar they offer. My latest obsession has been fruit vinegars and soda water, prompting me to purchase several bottles of white sweet vinegars to create my own flavored beverages.

We're addicted! Family owned and the staff is fantastic - especially Kelsey! Went with the intent…read moreof buying two bottles, left with 6 w/ great recommendations by Kelsey. Highly recommend!

Delicious meat pies!…read more I picked up these pies at their location in the Escondido Auto Park area. They have parking out front but it looked like a doozy with its incline into the dirt so I just drove around looking for street parking. I do not recommend trying if you have a lowered car. I did not put in an order but was glad to hear that they had many of their items available frozen. They are expensive so expect that. The pies are a decent size with generous fillings. My favorites were the Sausage Rolls & the Minced Meat & Cheese, tasty! Since I got them frozen, she gave me a rundown of how to heat up the pies & they came out perfectly. The directions are online too.

Can't believed they closed. Closest thing to home I've tasted. Wish they were still open.read more

Walked inside thinking I was just gonna grab a burger, and next thing I know I'm wandering around looking at all the meats, marinades, sauces, chips, drinks, and sandwiches like I was about to host a backyard BBQ for the whole neighborhood. This place is dangerous if you like to cook. I asked the guy behind the counter what I should order because I wasn't trying to make a bad decision. Without hesitation he said, Aged Burger and the Philly.....Say less. We grabbed those and ordered the fries extra crispy because that's the only way fries should be eaten. Man... everything was hella good. The burger was juicy, the Philly hit the spot, and those extra crispy fries disappeared way faster than I want to admit.... They've got plenty of outdoor seating too, so we just kicked back, ate, and enjoyed the vibe. I already know every time I'm in the area I'm coming here because wise ox is greater than shake shack I'm Js!
