I am looking forward to spending about 10 days in England and Scotland starting on Thursday, looking for more exciting and tastful products to bring to our corner of Chelsea New York and to our on line customer. My travels include visiting Tyrrells farm with the Peters Imports folks and than traveling to London for a show that is called IFE or the International Food and Drink Exposition (ife.co.uk) which takes place every 2 years.

In my new capacity, helping steer Peters Imports with what is brought back from England and at the same time finding new and wonderful stuff for Chelsea Market Baskets,  I am keen to find product that we can sell that has never been the USA before and with the exchange rate  now working in our favor, providing good value as well to our customers. After the show in London, I will be visiting Scotland for about 5 days, which should be good to dig in a little and see what is new and not discovered yet there.  These trips are good because I can find myself in many shops check out how they look as well as what they are selling and trying to capture the spirit of an older work food shop.   If there is anything that you especially interested in please email me and I will be looking.

Hello Friends and Neighbors,

This is my first entry in our new blog, which we are excited to share with you for lots of reason.  One that is happening right now is that  we are having a fun sale at great prices at our store to get the place cleaned and ready for Easter.  We have containers – some old inventory and some newer at ridiculous prices along with inspired specialty foods at prices starting at half a buck!

Come by we have many tastes and some great stuff that the staff is eager to purchase and they do not get a coworker discount on the stuff!

Early next week we plan to be looking like spring and filled with Easter fun!
