"12"^^ . "11"^^ . "Upon entering, I felt like I died and entered into smoked meat heaven.\n\nYou know how when you are near a campfire and you go home smelling like smoking embers? Well, I came home smelling of smokey sausages. OMG...\n\nThis family-run Slovenian meat shop has been around for 20+ years. Why it took me so long to stumble in is a shame. After punk rock yoga at the Beachland, I saw this place across the street... \"OPEN\"... YES!!! I had been meaning to check this place out for a long time.\n\nAs I walked in, the smell of smoked cured meat hit me in the face like a ton of bricks... yummy salty bricks. I was instantly happy and a bit overwhelmed. There's a lot to choose from. I figured I'd try some bacon. \"With rind or without?\" the owner said. Umm \"WITH!\". I had never had bacon with a rind before. As soon as I got home, I cooked a couple slices. OMGGGGGGG Yum! It's really smokey and the rind cooks into a bubbly pork rind. Some of the tastiest bacon I have had!\n\nI also got some Klobasa (Kielbasa) and some other stuff. I wish I got the names. I tried them all (in the car on the way home). I couldn't wait. The Klobasa was good. A bit different than the polish variety that I favor. The small dried sausage was really smokey and flavorful. The owner even threw in an extra. Next time, I will definitely get names so I can properly review them. But rest assured, it was all good. \n\nThe owner was super sweet. The prices are incredibly reasonable and the selection is amazing. I will be back soon!"^^ . "5"^^ . . . "2012-03-10T00:00:00"^^ . "4"^^ . .
