i get butterflies in my stomach every time i approach this store..

i open the big door... and i sigh... i know i am ready for an amazing experience.
the treasure trove that awaits is beyond words. it is one of the most beautifully merchandised stores i have ever had the pleasure to see. and although a bit pricey, i treat myself to my favorite things... always a piece or two of the produce, a fresh treat from the bakery, various cheeses, and never depart without a couple bags of the best coffee... a handfull of jars that may contain mustard, jam or something i have not even heard of before...and even though i have so many, the little tins of herbs or spices... i always pick up another... so take a look and treat yourself... (maybe i should ask for a position in pr?)

Looks like fun. Do they have a store here in the Pacific Northwest? I was in SOHO about 2 years ago and did not see the store, however when I was there I did not see a lot of things so there will need to be another trip in the near future. HUGS MARY
~*Wow I would LOVE to go there! Thanks for sharing~* :)Rachel
That sounds and looks amazing. My only Dean & Deluca reference is from watching episodes of "Felicity". If I ever get to New York, it would be near the top of my "to do" list....along with Zabar's! Meredy xo.
I've been there once and I too felt like a kid in a candy store. Such a beautiful way to shop...I can't even imagine the amazing foods one could find there. Delicious.

It always amazes me at the treasures we are able to find in our favorite troves~ Great Post! I wish I had one of these stores close by me!

I love that store. We visit whenever there is one close by. Perfect for picnic items! I always feel so excited to leave with one of their little bags..
I went there when we were in Georgetown DC...it was on my list right along with the Washington, Jefferson & Lincoln memorials! ;)
I was in heaven...had lunch and stars in my eyes. Remember Larry's Market...they sold the tins, I miss being able to get them there. D & D definitely need to find a home here!
I'm still teary from your comment btw...love to figure out a c&c date, you're an angel! xoxo
I visited Dean & Deluca a couple of times when I used to visit New York for work - it was marvellous then and it's obviously got better and better. You're so right - It's the sort of place that makes me think that things like a fig and parmesan jelly are a necessity!!
We have Dean and DeLuca in Charlotte, and it is my absolute favorite!! All of the food is so fresh and beautifully displayed - I feel healthier just walking in...
Thanks for the kind post! I work for Dean & DeLuca in SoHo, and we're glad you're such a big fan of our market. You can always visit us online at www.deandeluca.com and stay in touch with us via Facebook, Twitter and our Gourmet Food Blog http://thegourmetfoodblog.deandeluca.com/
