I
really should be ashamed of myself. First of all I haven’t updated this blog in
such a long time. I do have valid reasons though but lets not go into them, secondly I
only just discovered L’Epicerie! I had heard so much about it and always wanted to visit but for some reason I never went. Today though, I rectified
that!
I
haven’t been eating very well or cooking due to those reasons we are not
going to talk about. And I am not trying to lose weight! My meals have been quite
boring of late maybe due to the pressures of the show, I don’t know. I had had
enough of this phase though, the thought of another meal of Indomie and boiled
egg made me shudder. I tried to think of
exciting restaurants I could go to to eat but as this is January – broke month, I
decided against it. Then L’Epicerie popped into my head. I could go and buy
some ingredients to cook something exciting. After work I went there and I fell
in love!
I
love the way the whole place is set up. It was exciting seeing all the uncommon
and weird spices, ingredients that I would normally not find in the likes
Shoprite or Goodies. It reminded me of Waitrose and even the price tags
matched! My cost saving tactics seemed flawed!

see through boxes for spices, even Kuka |

Spice Boxes |

Imported mushrooms |
|
leeks and spring onions |
|
various oils and vinegar |
I wouldn't
recommend this place for everyday grocery shopping but for that special ingredient you should definitely visit!
