This week i stumbled upon one of Waterford's newest foodie ventures and i fell head over heels.
If you like condiments, jams and cakes and breads this is the place for you.
They pride themselves on using local produce and rightly so the owner comes from a very wide background in sales for multinational companies and the idea for the larder was a very straight forward one. like many of us often wonder would we rather work incredibly hard every day to pay the bills selling our soul or would we rather take a chance and do the thing that would bring us the most joy? Patrick very bravely chose to take the dive and open his very own dream store.
and to stock locally found producers and some specialty products such as high end flavored oils and even the finest italian products.To provide gluten free freshly baked goods by Josephine and her family who use spelt. you can literally taste the love in every bite of these wonderful breads. they even have spelt pizza bases which are a wonderful idea and the prices on these items are very fair. So far he has been selling out of bread almost daily. Which is wonderful for such a new venture. He also made a very smart choice in getting Niamh from savage kitchen to bring him wonderful treats. She makes the finest tea cake i have ever had and now she is after upping the game further with her yumyums/cronuts. I am officially hooked on those bad boys. and her savoury scone creations are so inventive and tasty. from pear and blue cheese to feta and olives,simply incredible. she has her own company and creates wonderful cakes for all occasions. Here is a link to her facebook page https://www.facebook.com/SavageBaker?fref=ts
the variety in the store is amazing they have joan and bobs juicy james and aurelias cordials. I could go on and on but i suggest you visit for yourself and see the variety in store.
The way the lay out of the store has been done is adorable and made all the more amazing by the fact that every single shelf is made from recycled materials. I have loved my time here. the only thing I could not get 100 percent behind was the coffee. It is bewleys and a fine blend of bewleys at that. definitely one of the better i have tasted but unfortunatly did not amaze me as much as the rest of the store. I will say i am incredibly fussy when it comes to coffee and my tastes are very much so my own. It was by no means a bad coffee just not my favorite in town
Please pop down to this store and support a brand new exciting venture.
