Red Barn Markets 5550
West Saanich Road - Good local produce, but more notably a kick ass
butcher featuring local meats. Meat processing is done in house -
smoked pork loin is absolutely fantastic in choucroute! Aged smoked
cheddar is also a winner. Charelli's Delicatessen -
2863 Foul Bay Road, tel: 598-4794 - Yummy, yummy
cheese and a variety of other import food items. I've sampled
their cheeses on a number of occasions and always been delighted. Also,
their prices are more reasonable than some of their competition.
Catering available. |
