The bakery and cheese sections are equally impressive. I mean honestly, so is the meat section and the fish section and the bulk section and the coffee and the floral.... You get the point. You can certainly get lost in browsing and thought in these stores. I like to pop in to the bakery for the fruit tart. It's so beautiful that I like to pick one up to take as a hostess gift whenever I'm invited to a gathering nearby. It impresses and is delicious. If you don't want to pick up food as a gift, check out the deliciously scented candles. You can't walk away empty handed. Also, don't snooze on the gelato station. They offer yummy flavors.

What makes it stand out from the other HEB stores is the prepared foods and a couple of food booths that you can find in the store. I usually visit H-E-B Central marketplace, to purchase some of my Christmas sides and entrées. They also have the delicious pies at H-E-B sells but with some twists. For example, one of their fruit pies is in four different fruit selections. Service, of course, is up to Heb standards so spectacular and this one has the Christmas feel for me. The prices are a bit higher than another HEB, but the selection is different, as well. This makes it ideal for trying to find items that might not be sold in other HEBs.

Where to begin this review is tough since there are so many great things to say. First, the…read moreseasonings, spices, peppers, and blends are great and ready to use right from the container. Many of the blends that they have are rather unique and I haven't been able to find a comparable product. I cook A LOT and go through a lot of seasonings on a regular basis. Prior to realizing that they had an online store, I was relegated to buying only what I coulld find of theirs on the local store shelf, the online buying has really opened things up for me. Speaking of the online store. The layout of the website makes it simple to navigate and purchase items, the shipping is fast, and out of my MANY orders, there hasn't been a mistake made. On the off chance that something is on backorder, they will let you know and it generally gets to you within the next few days. Finally, lets discuss what makes or breaks a company; customer service. As stated above, they really do a great job, but I made a mistake a few orders ago and needed to add something to my existing order, so I sent an email to them and asked if it was too late to add the extra 2 items. I had a reply within minutes and they were able to add them. So, if you haven't tried their stuff, I highly recommend that you do so, this Texas guy loves what they have!

The atmosphere is very welcoming and the staff is very helpful, explaining everything very well, the origin, health benefits etc.. encouraging me to sample as much as I'd like and introducing me to all their different products (salts, spices olives, skin care, pasta...) Although I had come in just to refill on that delicious sundried tom parm. garlic olive oil I couldn't resist but to grab a bag of their handmade Italian pasta along with some dipping herbs. I think the prices are very reasonable for the quality of products they offer! And you will simply not find all those varieties and unique flavors anywhere else.
