I had such a good experience today in Dean and Deluca. A super friendly employee chatted me up while he was dishing out my favorite tomato and mozzarella side dish. He was extremely polite and engaging. The exchange made me feel like I was a regular and I left the store feeling extremely positive. I'm a huge fan of business that hire people with engaging smiles and friendly dispositions. Having said that, the prices are a bit high. The food is wonderful, don't get me wrong. But, I believe I can get similar quality at Harris Teeter for cheaper. Dean and Deulca is a treat, though and today it was a really great treat!
