Olive adoration

Current obsession:

The olive bar at Fairway.

If you live in the NYC area, you must check this place out. It’s Whole Foods quality and variety at Trader Joe’s prices.

But my favorite part (aside from the bakery, sigh) is the massive olive bar. Whether you are looking for martini olives, or good old-fashioned kalamata, French olives with herbs, nicoise, Sicilian…

Sorry, I just got a little overexcited. Anyway, they have like a million varieties, and they let you sample them all!!! I mixed and matched a pint of Sicilian and Spanish blends, and I’ve been mainlining them all week…and discovering…they get better each day.

Note to Brooklyn Fairway: I love you. I love you so much that I visit you weekly and gives you globs and globs of money in exchange for said olives and Russian pumpernickel bagels and tons of produce. Oh, and those jalapeno and cilantro tortillas from last week? Made my quesadillas sing. They love you too.

If you love me as well, feel free to exhibit that love with lots of care packages of goodies. You know what I like…
