As a pescatarian, I knew walking into this place that most of the store was going to be off-limits for me--walls of jerky from every animal imaginable, including some seriously wild exotic ones like alligator, ostrich, kangaroo, elk, venison, and buffalo. I wouldn't (and couldn't) eat half the things in there, but honestly, if I wasn't pescatarian, I'd be in heaven sampling all these crazy flavors. They have so many unique and bold options--it's overwhelming in the best way. The variety is insane, and the staff was super friendly about letting people try samples.
That said, there were a couple of things I could actually enjoy! They have gourmet popcorn with fun twists like matcha and this "Dubai" style (chocolate + pistachio vibes, I think--super unique and tasty). I grabbed some of that and it was a nice surprise. Then there's the bug section... insects combined with lollipops? Like scorpions or crickets encased in candy? What the heck--it's wild and kind of fascinating to see. Not my thing at all, but it's such a quirky, memorable part of the store.
If you're in the area, whether you're a meat-lover, adventurous eater, or just curious like me, this spot is a total must-stop. It's fun, over-the-top, and has something for everyone (or at least something to gawk at). Definitely worth the detour! read more
