INCOMING!

OK. I am gonna preface this with the the following statement: " I will not be held responsible or accountable for any shipping delays, missing items or any thing else that is beyond my control." Having said that we expect a whole bunch of new product in this week.
OK. Allow me to explain. Every time that I promise that something will be here on such and such day, something beyond my control happens and said item is either missing from our order or delayed. We had expected that an order of product was to arrive this past week. When I called my supplier, he seemed surprised that our truck had not arrived yet. Seems our truck either left the east coast later (2 days) than expected or somehow got delayed (2 days) along the way. So said product should be, emphasis on SHOULD, arriving this week and on the shelves by Thursday. Assuming nothing else goes awry.
On to more important things, what we are getting. The Moulins Majhoub products that many of you enjoyed last year are returning to grace our shelves and, hopefully, your pantry. Here is what we are expecting:
Tunisian Extra Virgin Olive Oil 100% Organic-this is the big 1L bottle that many of you enjoyed at both a cooking and eating oil. It is flavourful enough to enjoy on salads and as a condiment but robust enough to cook with.
Moulin Majhoub Couscous-both plain and with dried chili. These are the hand rolled couscous that you usually only read about in travel books. Again these are hand rolled and NOT machine cut, hence a bit bigger than you are used to.
Moulin Majhoub condiments:
Fig Jam
Lemon Marmalade
Artichoke Bitter Orange Chutney
Candied Lemon and Fig Chutney
Tunisian Sweet Pepper Harissa Spread
Artichoke and Harousse Spread

There are a few other items coming but I am gonna let you sweat it a bit on this.
We should also be receiving several other items that many of you will be VERY excited about.
Salumeria Biellese will be back in stock with all of their lovely cured pork products and even some beef too. The list is to long to put here, but rest assured all of your favorites will be well represented.
Several of you have been lamenting the 5yr old Aged Gouda that we carried at different times last year. Well, your lamenting will surely end soon as we have TWO wheels on the way. There are quite a few other wonderful cheeses that we have been with out in the past few months that will be making their 2009 debut, including that AWESOME Comte that we had last year.
So, again, barring any unforeseen problems, everything mentioned above and a few items not mentioned will be available for your enjoyment. Hope to see all of you in the store soon. Cheers.

did I mention that the Parma Prosciutto will be back too?
