Chef Extraordinaire
I managed to get to The Spice House in old town (okay--it was supposed to be about a mile from the hotel, but I missed Division Street and probably walked 3 miles...got off at the wrong stop on the CTA and had to take a cab the rest of the way to make my "evening" meeting--meetings ran from 6:45 a.m. to 6:15 p.m. and then my flight home was cancelled, so I'm still in Chicago...hope to get home today).
Anyhoo--here's the stuff I got:
Juniper berries
White truffle sea salt
Grey Sea Salt--French
Vulcan blend salt
Curry leaves
3 Mexican vanilla beans
Hot and Sweet Hungarian paprika
Sumac
dried Oyster mushrooms
dried tomato powder
dried Meyer lemon peel
Next door is the Old Oil Company. There I almost lost my mind. I controlled my impulse (knowing I already am sitting on the cusp re: weight limit for flying). I bought Porcini Olive Oil and Persien Lime Olive Oil (I can hardly wait to use that with chicken, salmon, and salads). What great fun it was--now all I have to do is pick up my wild rice in MN and I'll be as happy as a pig in ... mud.
So--what are the foodie shops in San Antonio? I have to be in San Antonio the end of January...
