So, I've literally just walked back in from exploring the Made In France/Village Imports warehouse sale.
I won't rehash the details of the sale - you can go to Sam's site, here, for that. Suffice it to say, though, that Friday is definitely the day to go, if you can manage it.
Me, I'm lucky to work in Brisbane, so I finally braved the damn sale, and now I'm sitting here savoring a Mamie Nova Yaourt au Framboises & Mûres.
At any rate, here's what my $125 got me:
- 1.25lb whole Rougie Foie Gras
- 1 package of Petit Suisse (which I can't wait to eat with my yummy Piquant Quince preserves from England, lovingly hand-delivered by Sam)
- Two small tubs of demi-glace (veal & mushroom)
- 2 1-lb blocks of Plugra
- Several packages of Mamie Nova yogurts (including a pistachio one I've never had!) and crèmes
- Several crocks of La Fermière yogurts
- Chestnut paste
- Harissa
- Champagne vinegar
- Several bars of chocolate
- A large round of Valencay
- A tub of Maitres Laitiers du Cotentin cheese
- and finally, a small jar of truffle pieces (I don't have high hopes for this, but it was under $15, so if nothing else, will be fine for finishing dressings, etc.)
