Doug's Homestead makes amazing beef jerky, which is often sold out by noon. This pisses everybody off but it makes you want it all the more. Salty chewing gum, the best for your road trip. Their pepperoni guessing game rocks- if you can figure out the cost of your pepperoni "to the penny!" with the hint of what one stick costs, then you get your pepperoni for free! There is a Pepperoni Wall of Fame that you can get your picture taken at and you will have bragging rights to all your friends. The only problem with sharing this stuff is then more people know about this hidden gem, and any time you travel past it to Osoyoos or Kelowna, or Nelson, or wherever... your friends will irrationally demand that you stop and get them $40 worth of meat. NOT JOKING. If you like the little Eastern European butcher on the Drive near First, and the family run butcher in Fernie, this is the kind of quality you can expect. YUM

During a recent stay in Penticton, the daughter had the opportunity to see and shop at Grimm's…read moreSausage before she returned home. Thanks to her trip, we received a 'sampling' of tasty treats -- liverwurst, weisswurst, and European wieners. The gifted offering was directed primarily to her Mom -- definitely the one who knows, and is able to really savour the distinctive flavours of these kinds of meats. And she sure did. I managed to target the weisswurst, and ensured we enjoyed a meal together with this sausage. It is a sausage favourite of mine, and I really enjoyed their product - creamy in texture, and rather 'lighter' in flavour. I could enjoy that sausage often, and in so many ways. At this time, that included one taste of sweet & savory, open-faced sandwiches -- made with slices of weisswurst sausage on cinnamon rolls -- tried before the sausage was gone. Thanks to A&K Grimms for their well-made, flavourful & tasty sausages, and daughter for catching some for us to taste at home.

This was a little gem we found through friends. I love finding places through word of mouth because…read morethen you know these are the places that are definitely worth checking out. And I wasn't wrong with this one. Row Fourteen offers farm to table or locally produced items on the menu. So menu can change depending on what is available. Restaurant has a rustic vibe to it but not your typical old, rustic theme but rather modern updated rustic atmosphere. Open kitchen and indoor as well as outdoor dining is available. Service was prompt and we were seated right away. I ordered their cider flight and that was a great choice. I got to taste 4 of their ciders and value wise, I think it was a good deal. And their ciders were quite tasty and I ended up getting 2 bottles of them to go. We started with order of sourdough bread and pickles. Sourdough with the butter (I really wish I had taken a picture of the menu) was a bit hit. We ended up ordering 2 more sourdough. I had wanted to order the steak but unfortunately for us, they only had 2 steaks left so I graciously gave up my steak and ordered their aged cheddar burger ok brioche bun. And the burger knocked it out of the park. Normally, I feel grossed out after eating a burger but this wasn't greasy at all. On a nice brioche bun, aged cheddar complimented the juice beef patty. Others who ordered the steak raved about the mustard sauce it came with. We ended the meal with pavlova and zucchini cake. I have never had pavlova like this. It was light and crispy and not overly sweet. It was a fabulous dining experience and definitely a memorable meal for me. Also, I tasted the cabbage and man, that was sooo good. Even my son who doesn't like cabbage raved about it.

A fantastic meal with a great view. We sat outside facing the orchard, which was honestly such a…read moregreat vibe. Even though we were outside, service was still attentive. We tried a bunch of different dishes and all were fresh and tasty. Radish & crudite- simple but so tasty. The veggies were so fresh and all had the perfect crunch. Padron peppers- as they described it as Russian roulette with varying spice levels of peppers. I was the lucky one that had one that brought me to tears. But still a great dish! Cauliflower- one of our favourite dishes. The bean puree on the bottom with the salsa macha elevated the dish. The flavours were tasty and it was a dish I'll remember for awhile. Tagliatelle and meatballs- this dish brought warmth to our meal. The pasta was cooked perfectly and had a bit of chew. We ended the night off with a crumble that I wasn't a huge fan of. The oats were too dry on top, but I did like the flavour profile of the crumble with the peach leaf ice cream (if I remember it correctly). Overall, the rest of the meal was delicious.

This is a butcher shop/deli located in the mission area near Barn Owl and Dunnenzies. Parking is…read morefree and there's tons of it. The shop carries quite a wide selection of meats and meat products, including deli meats, sausages, steaks, ribs, etc. Besides the standards, they also carry bone marrow, pet treats, including fresh cooked bones, seasonings, prepared meals, and pastries. The prices are reasonable and they also have weekly sales. The food in the deli and meals looked fresh. Service is super friendly and they have lots of staff in front and in the back of house so that you srent left waiting in a line. I actually came here looking for bones for a class I am teaching and the staff here were more than accommodating. They actually were able to find some bones not on display in the store that were perfect for my needs and charged me a very fair price! Apparently, they get people coming in with requests for classes or experiments quite frequently, so they are used to custom orders. I would definitely come back to this deli again, given that the service is super friendly and helpful, the prices are good, and they have a lot of yummy and convenient food options to choose from!

We loaded up on stuff to feed a bunch of wedding-goers for a few days; we got starchy stuff, vegetables, sparkling water, condiments, and so on. Prices are a little higher than most stores, but the quality is fine. They don't have specialty items like deli sandwiches and charcuterie and stuff like that, but all the staples are available, and the butcher section is spot on. Lots of local, carefully-raised stuff from ranches in the area. We thought we would have to pack in everything we were going to eat, but were able to pick up most of what we needed right in town.
