Review from Andrew T.
Pretty cool spot. Rows and rows and rows of glass jars, filled with what to me looks like exotic candies. Things I've heard of from Roald Dahl books and Monty Python sketches (but no cockroach cluster) plus a lot more I hadn't, plus chocolate bars and even non candy items like tinned stewed rice and curry noodles. I couldn't resist getting some Basset's allsorts and Walkers toffees. The girl behind the counter was helpful in explaining wares and offering samples, in a playfully snarky sort of way. If I was an anglophile, or perhaps an expatriate, here's where I'd go to keep my dentist in business.
