HAPPY NEW YEAR !!
December 28, 2008The last couple of weeks have been lots of fun at the market. We are so lucky to be the “hub” or as one regular called it, the ”chalet” of the neighborhood. It was beautiful to watch the snow falling from our open windows while soups were simmering. It felt like the whole neighborhood came out to say hello. As Pat and I looked at each other at the end of each day, we both said ” Everyday should be a snow day in Eastmoreland! ” .
We look forward to 2009 as change is around the corner . We have been at the store for one year and so much has happened during that short time. Twelve years owning Tuscany Grill in N.W. Portland, we never imagined owning the little store in our own neighborhood. Circumstances and a leap of faith landed us where we are. We wanted to change the store to reflect what we really love but also wanted to keep the spirit of what it has always been. After twelve months of butchering, stocking, ordering and cooking, we are finally coming into what we envisioned eighteen months ago. We love this store and have come to know so many wonderful people because of it.
Thank you for your continued support and we wish you and your families a very Happy New Year!!
Pat, Colleen, Jesse, Carlos, Jon, Cody and Nathan
I don't know if I qualify as a 'regular' but
April MacFarlan | January 8, 2009I don’t know if I qualify as a ‘regular’ but I do visit the store at least once a month (well, during the snow, much more than that!) and I so treasure the friendly atmosphere and wonderful selection of meats and produce. I may not think to go to your little store every time I’m out of bread or milk, but when I do, I love it. I just wanted you to know that there are so many of us in the neighborhood that appreciate all you and Pat have done and we value your presence and efforts!
Please, keep up the great work and I’m looking forward to visiting you more often in 2009!
Best,
April MacFarlan
