Vom Fass Artisan Specialty Store

Jars and canisters are some of the things I like purchasing, even the little versions of these as well.  Lately, I’ve been into airtight glass food storage jars that keep food fresh and mason jars that I can use for display, serving, vase or arts and crafts.  I love little jars particularly, especially when it stores artisanal products like aged balsamic vinegars or truffle oil.  For a foodie and trying hard to be a home cook like me, it’s like giving me a Tiffany box.

Sometime last year, I received a small 40ml jar that contains truffle oil.  I love anything truffle.

I asked where it came from and was told it was from Vom Fass.  Vom Fass recently opened at Shangri-la Plaza mall and offers an extraordinary line-up of single malt whiskeys, artisanal oils, vinegars, spirits, liqueurs, and other non-alcoholic specialties, all of which may be sampled ‘from the cask’ (which is what ‘Vom Fass’ means in English).

Epicurious

Last Friday afternoon, Jaja, me and her former troop gathered for some tea time (that looked more like snack time or merienda cena) at Epicurious in Shangri-La Plaza Mall.  Epicurious is a shop-and-dine deli café and bakery.  Walk into the spacious interior that showcases multiple cold storages carrying sausages, meat cuts, iberico hams, chorizos and the display case of sandwiches, pasta, and other warm items.
