Friday night I had dinner in Shirlington. After dinner we stopped by Ah Love Oil and Vinegar (thanks WnW (I think) for the recommendation).
I had bought a hostess pack before, but had not tried any of the stuff myself. I have given up salad dressing and have been using regular balsamic vinegar on my salads.
I decided I wanted to splurge and get some flavored ones.
I bought a rasberry balsamic and put that on my salad today - HEAVEN! So delicious.
I also bought a "sample" size of chocolate balsamic and am going to use that on some fruit tonight. I am so excited. It is going to be fabulous!
Thanks for the recommendation!
Also, Cheesetique is now open
Re: Product RAVES
I also Ah Love Oil!
It's my favorite hostess gift & personal indulgence. So far we have the truffle oil, lemon oil, fig balsamic, citrus habanero oil & pear balasamic (this one if from awhile ago...I don't think they carry it anymore)
Ugh I wish I could go back in there...when they had opened, DH and I walked in on a weekday afternoon to check it out and by some oils (we eat a diet that has a lot of avocado oil and other specialty type oils and figured it would be a good time to stock up).
There were three sales associates at the cash register talking when we walked in. We were the only ones in the store...ten minutes go by...they are still talking and we still haven't been greeted or even asked if we needed help!
I decided not to buy anything and we walked out. I was really annoyed by the treatment and, clearly, still hold a grudge :-) It totally gelt like that moment in "Pretty Woman" lol
Sorry to hijack the post with a debbie downer moment but I really wanted to love this place.
Hope people get better treatment there now they've been open a while. And we tried the chocolate balsamic and it's pretty awesome!
shrugs.
I've never had issue with their customer service. if anything, a few employees have been a little too helpful.
