On Ewan's February 2008 visit, this colourful delicatessen around the corner from Degustation had friendly staff and, according to the logo and website, a love of food.

The difference from Degustation is that this one seems to have a focus on English food producers, with plenty of teas, a range of pickles and jams, Cartmel sticky toffee puddings, meat and cheese, and bespoke ready meals. There was also Italian pasta, a range of olive oils, fresh bread and produce (though this looked slightly less enticing), herbs, spices and drygoods and plenty of other nice things.
