Now, my friends have been telling me to go to this place for months, but I just never found the opportunity, despite how many times I've driven by this newer plaza. I finally had a moment to stop in, and the first thing I noticed was how neat and cool their displays are. The first thing you see is a very aesthetically pleasing setup of Fou Dre bottles.
I found myself browsing and seeing so many brands that I know for a fact I haven't seen anywhere else -- except BOWSFest! And there were more familiar brands, and I noted the price difference... More than $10 for some, admittedly. But in my opinion, totally worth it for the ones you don't normally see!
I did not get his name, but there was a gentleman decked out in a dapper suit sitting behind the register who happily greeted me when I came in. I did also see an open door to the left, and realized they are connected to the new Carolina Kitchen, Sea & Soul I have heard so much about him.
I imagine it is meant to be an IYKYK situation, but I would love the Black-owned brands to be more clearly labeled. I will be recommending this spot to friends who love supporting these brands. read more
