    Grand assortment of different chocolates to fill every taste…read more Service was excellent. Staff was very helpful.

    Oh dear, oh dear; what have I done? The other day I was perusing various offerings in the area and…read morecame upon the Carolina Candy Company. The short description piqued my interest (I mean, come on already...chocolate and toffee? What's not to love?. As an unpaid servant to the gastronomic public, I forced myself to locate this place. It is in a small collection of shops off of Kerr Avenue, but finding it can be a bit difficult (especially for some of our local speed demons!). Google maps will get you there, however, and it is on your right as you enter the parking area between the two sets of stores. The photo I took shows what to look for and do look for it. Did I mention that they do samples? I meant to go in and speak with the owners, and maybe that was it. Of course, those who know me are laughing right now because y'all know my predilection for sweets. Purely in the interest of encouraging this business (veteran-owned), I did purchase a small bag of their dark chocolate toffee. Oh, the things I do for science and the community. Carolina Candy Company has other offerings other than candy from other Veteran-owned businesses, including hand-poured candles and soaps. Very interesting, but let's get back to the toffee! Rich, luscious, and all-too-soon gone flavor. The variety of toffee and barks will tempt the most diet-conscious person. The selections include a dark-chocolate toffee, dark-chocolate southern pecan toffee, and milk chocolate almond toffee. The barks (peppermint) I somehow did not sample. Please forgive this oversight, which I plan on correcting soon. All are decadent and probably the ruin of many a New Year's promises to avoid sweets. I went with the dark-chocolate toffee (this time) with a commitment to return (soon!) to savor the others as well. I'm all about equal treatment, you understand. Overall I would grade the service as 5/5 and the same for their toffees (I somehow managed to miss sampling the barks. I guess that means I have to return to make sure nothing is overlooked). You can order through their website (https://carolinacandy.com/shop/), but do go by and check them out.

    When I lived downtown in Wilmington, Kilwins on Market Street was my go to spot for caramel and ice…read morecream, and I think it had been 15 years since I was in that shop. After a medical appointment in midtown Wilmington, I drove through The Point at Barclay because I've never been, and there was a Kilwins. I think my car automatically pulled into the parking space in front of the shop, so I considered it kismet. I wasn't in the shop more than a minute when a friendly clerk offered me samples. I indulged then ordered the peanut butter pie ice cream in a waffle bowl and sat outside. What a lovely outdoor space! And what MARVELOUSLY DELICIOUS ice cream! I went back in and did some shopping in the super clean and very well organized store. It was such a delightful Halloween experience that made me so happy. Despite my doctor's warnings, I will go back, perhaps not as often as I want to, but certainly everytime I am driving by and for each and every holiday because the festive, vintage like displays gave me the best Halloween vibes.

    I tried one scoop of the blueberry waffle cone ice cream in a waffle bowl ($6.99), almond toffee…read morecrunch ($35.99/lb), and gummy bears ($6.99 for 6oz). Everything was very good but just so pricey. The blueberry waffle cone ice cream would've been better if there were bigger pieces of blueberries, otherwise, I loved the creamy, rich, sweet taste of the ice cream and the tiny pieces of chocolate covered waffle cone pieces in the ice cream. Eating the ice cream in a waffle bowl made it easy and clean to eat on the car ride. The waffle bowl was fresh and crunchy. I can say nothing negative about the almond toffee crunch. Just perfect. It's a slab of buttery almond toffee bar covered with milk chocolate on both sides and topped with chopped almonds. The gummy bears were better than I thought. Just as good as Black Forest gummy bears. Soft and good fruity flavor. Lots of other various sweets were in the store like tons of different chocolates, popcorn, taffy, ice cream cakes, and to-go quart sized ice cream. Staff member that helped me was sweet and friendly.

    5 star plus! It was my partner's birthday and we were in town for an art show and were looking for…read moresomeplace special Circa 1992 did not disappoint! We shared a bottle of Whites Bay Sauvignon Blanc. We mentioned to the waitress that it could have been a touch colder (we like it icy) and after pouring us a small glass each she took it back to the blast chiller to cool it down more. It came back cooler and we put it on ice at the table. One of our favorite ways of eating sharing small plates. We started with a dozen oysters (6 from NC and 6 from SC). They were very good and the sauces that came with them were a nice compliment. Next was a nice arugula salad with some goat cheese. It was perfect for the 2 of us. Then came the "mains". We had Octopus with polenta. Not tough or chewy and the polenta was a nice compliment. Mussels in a nice white whine sauce were nice an garlicky and the bread that came with for sopping up the broth was perfect. Final "main" was beef tartare with a marrow bone. My partner does not like marrow so it was all mine and it was spectacular. Finished the night with a mini creme brulee that we shared. It was served in a little demi cup and it was just the right size bite. Our table was on the 2nd floor and it was a great atmosphere. Even though it was full, the room was not too loud that we couldn't have a nice conversation. Here is the best part. Our server, Nikki, was one of the best we have had at any restaurant. A little personality, just attentive enough and brought out our dishes just as we had asked them to come out. Couldn't ask for any better. Was our experience cheap? NO but if you have a special occasion or just want to treat yourself go to Circa 1992!

    We love this place for date night and to celebrate our anniversary…read more Never a bad meal.
