Oh Em Gee. AJ's is where it is AT. I love love this place.
And ok yeah yeah it's expensive but I'm not knocking it any stars for that. Theres like @ least 4 super amazing samples every time I go into AJs. That ain't free. Don't whine about prices when you gorge on samples people --- thats just dumb, nothing in life is free. Plus! Its always so nice and clean in there and the staff is nice and not stupid. That is also not free. Plus plus the deli, butcher, and bakery is legit. Having that high of quality is also NOT FREE.
So yeah, needless to say I'm willing to spend a little more for things @ AJs because it's just sooo nice in there.
Ok and then speaking of nice, has anyone seen that wine selection ?! Frigging blew my mind the first time I saw it. THAT is a wine selection. yeah and whoever said "oh just go to Costco for the same thing"
NO! No no no it doesn't work that way
Costco does not carry : Turley, Shae, Foxen, Gaja, Chatenauphe de Paupe(not sure I spelled that right), nice Borolo's, Bonacorssi....... I mean just to name a few --- not the same thing as Costco.
So yeah basically AJs is as real as it gets. they dont have super hippie food, like I dunno quinoa or bee pollen. But! What they do have is nice and gourmet-ie-ish. I mean where else can u get Paula Dean's complete line of marinades? And BESIDES that there are so many other good things.
A+ to Aj's! yeah theyre not cheap but you get what you pay for in this game of life
