I cannot visit Columbia, without stopping by and buying several items to take home. This delightful little shop is located in the heart of downtown, on Broadway. It offers practical and unique gadgets. Aprons that make a baker look like a fashionista. They also offer, professional chef quality knives. Also, with the upcoming holidays, you can find table settings, serving pieces, that will make your table an elegant showpiece. The ladies who staff the store, are a delight. They are always excited to assist you and really love it when you share stories of your purchases. My most recent purchase, a large tea towel called, Bartenders Guide, is going to be framed. When I told the owner what I going to do, she asked me to send her a pic when it was completed. She was almost as excited as I was to find this towel and to do something creative with it. If you like to entertain, you gotta shop at Tallulahs. I guarantee you will not be able to walk out empty handed.
