After learning the history of Smokin' Ed and the new Pepper X, I really wanted to try it. I order (mail order) 3 different pepper x products: special reserve, table sauce & taco sauce. So far I've only had the opportunity to try the table sauce so far and I am not disappointed at all. While it offers a really good heat index, the flavor of the mix is good. I've put it on everything. The website and ordering process is very easy and they offer different specials upon signing up/ordering. My order was fulfilled with a few days and arrived in about 3 days or so. I will definitely keep them in mind for future purchases.

With a name like Pucker Butt, you know what's coming next!…read more I've lived in the town of Fort Mill, SC going on 6 years now and have popped in from time to time just to check out the store but I never bought anything until today. I saw a YouTube video about Smokin Eddie Currie the owner and learned he had developed a pepper hotter than the Carolina Reaper called Pepper X. No a real snazzy name but it has been officially acknowledged at THE hottest pepper by The Guinness book. Smokin Eddie wasn't around but I bought some sauce anyway. They were having a holiday sale at 30% off so I had to get some, tis the season. You should know about the Scoville scale. Pepper hotness is a science and on the scale, the Pepper X is at the top of the chart. A Pimiento Pepper is up to 500 on the scale. Previously the Carolina Reaper was 2,500,000, yeah, that's two million five hundred thousand. Pepper X comes in a 2,693.000. You can see my photo of the Guinness record. Yeah, that's gonna make some butt's pucker.

I want to start by saying this is not the first, second, or even third time I've had a poor…read moreexperience at this location. Unfortunately, there seems to be a consistent lack of customer service, consideration, and basic empathy. During my most recent visit, the woman I spoke with...who had glasses and shoulder length hair...was in the middle of making soap, which I understood she couldn't immediately stop. However, when I explained what I was looking for, instead of offering assistance or even a bit of understanding, I felt completely brushed off. This same dismissive attitude has been present every time I've visited. Because of these repeated experiences, I will no longer be a customer, and I won't be recommending this business to anyone...

I revisited this place once in a long time...and I was sad to see that most of the merchandise was…read moregone! There were only a sprinkling of items on sale (like a few T-shirts, sunglasses, and some miscellaneous items), so still a bit to check out. More than retail, it seems the place is now more of an artsy crafty place than a retail store. The entire place looked bigger...more space, since less retail. I thought they should have had some overhead music to fill the empty space, and give it more of a vibe. They still had this bar area, where they served wine (aside from the Jackass Cafe in the back). Still, I love the big, wide, open space that this place has to offer...and its Bohemian vibe. And did I mention their awesome artwork on their walls - both inside and out? I left the store thinking I should partake in their jewelry making on my next visit!

I just recently discovered LeMakron at the Fort Mill Strawberry Festival…read more What I got: Strawberry Tangerine Lemon Pinkberry All of the macrons were perfect in texture - softness with that outside crunch.

You can currently find LeMakron at farmer's markets and at the Peach Stand.

I am a frequent customer, probably in there at least twice a week sometimes but definitely every week. I really love their homemade chicken salad with nuts and fruit in it. They have amazing cooked sliced sirloin. That is wonderful on sandwiches or cooked with eggs for breakfast. I can buy my hard boiled organic eggs in the bag so I don't have to peel them. They have so many wonderful choices for healthy food, even the ice cream! If you have not tried ice cream for bears yet? You have to give it a shot and yes, give the vanilla or the honey bear a try. Their kale salad with apples is also wonderful. Oh! Don't even get me started on when they have the lemon fest! I stocked up on the lemon white chocolate popcorn Seriously, really nice people as well. One of my favorites is San-Dee but the young man behind the counter in the deli is such a sweetheart. Everyone is extremely helpful, very professional and kind. I returned my scones because the bakery changed the recipe, and the woman actually went to the shelf to find another package and said open it and taste one to see if it was an issue just with the batch you got. Who does that?! Sprouts does! Again, just really love the staff and I found wild caught frozen halibut so that I could make it at home! OK, I guess I should stop raving and just post the review, but I'll share some pictures of my recent shopping trip. Oh! I almost forgot! I did take pictures of the homemade jalapeño focaccia bread, and it is phenomenal! This is also the only local grocery store where I could find organic sourdough bread and they have different flavors! If you're in Ballantyne, give them a shot. It is absolutely worth it in my experience and opinion. Oh, and I edited this to add that you could find some really great sweet treats! They have chocolate from Dubai and I love their organic dark chocolate with a hint of salt. There are tons of gluten-free options from pasta to bread and crackers. You name it. They also have a couple of aisles of health items and really great dog treats as well.

Pizza was crispy with a ton of flavor. 10/10 no notes. Also, the staff was so nice! We had our 11 week old with us sleeping in his stroller and everyone was being intentionally quiet to keep him sleeping. Bunch of gems in there. Can't wait to come back to try more pizza and the pasta!

So many good food options, especially the Flat Bread aka Lamcuan or Lahmajouhn. Think if it as 'pizza lite' with very easy minced meat with savory spices and a very thin crust. It's amazing all the different food options here, they have a bakery and lots of meats, sausage, cheese as well as peroigis and xx. They have a drive-thru option and as you can see from my photos, you can get a smash burger shawarma wraps and plates. They also have a massive selection of cold European beers, take a look at the photo. The Drive-Thru is CLOSED on Saturday & Sunday. However you can get the frozen Lahmajoun, 4 small pizzas for $20 bucks.
