    A fine, fine selection!  

    Jacobson's does not carry every item from product lines, they choose the best offerings for you.  So the shelves have offerings of the 'favourite things' of the owner and the ladies who work there.

    Personal favourites: Duchy organics fennel tea; rosette de lyon chardonnay or herbed salami; caramel chocolate enrobed pistachios; art-is-in bread; la sauvagine cheese; frozen spinach pizza.

    They have added a fine selection of frozen foods.

    The ladies working there are all very helpful, and you will delight in the cheeses, all available for sampling.

    Jacobsons has a lot of specialty food items that you won't find anywhere else.  It is great for picking up something interesting on the way to a dinner party.  There are lots of dips, dressings, oils and sauces along the walls of the stores.

    There is a huge display of gourmet chocolates and another display with cheeses.  There are samples scattered around the store of antipasto type items (cheese, meats, croustinis).  

    You could find lots of gifts for a food-lover friend here, from wooden serving items, glasses and large mixing bowls, kitchen towels and mitts, just to name a few ideas.

    Another section of the store has jewelry (some made by a jewelry designer who designed a necklace for Sarah Jessica Parker in Sex and the City!).  There are also candles and many fine home items.

    A woman who was working in the store took me on sort of a tour of the store and was very knowledgeable and helpful about everything.  She was very enthusiastic.

    Great service and great options.
