| - Stamoolis Brothers is one of the Strip District storefronts, specializing in Greek and Mediterranean imports. They have a good selection of olives, a decent cheese selection, a variety of ready-made dips and spreads which are pretty tasty, and some harder-to-find specialty items like rose water, pomegranate molasses, different grinds of bulgur wheat, bulk fava beans, etc. You can also get packaged bulk nuts, dried fruits, etc. When I go in here, it's usually because I'm looking for feta cheese or Greek-style yogurt.
This place is pretty good. A couple times I've had some problems getting yogurt here, since they have a tendency to keep the yogurt on the shelf until it's almost at its sell-by date, but on the other hand, they have the cheapest price on Fage yogurt that I've seen in town thus far. My mom loves a lot of their dips and spreads, so I get snacks from here a lot when she's in town. The one caution I have (besides the yogurt) is that they sell an inferior brand of canned tomatoes here, which gives off a very strong flavor of metal and ruins your meal.
