| - Generally speaking, I like this place. The staff are friendly, helpful, and on the ball. I would say this is the place to go if you're an average carnivore looking for a place that offers the basics with a few extra treats. It's not the place to go if you're a curious or experienced carnivore in search of the full gamut. They don't carry chicken backs, necks, or feet. And on the many occasions I have shopped here, they were out of something or other (like the genoa salami or chicken livers). It seems like everything is catered to the hipster (I know, it's Kensington) which would explain the higher price tag. That being said, I can always swing by my Portuguese butcher for these things, including a litre of pork fat for three dollars (they only carry one cup containers here for two dollars a pop).
Overall, a clean place with quality fresh meat. And again, the staff are amazing. Try the house made pepperettes; they are perfect!
