Ins & Outs of Barbados 2020

84  SHOPPING INS& Important Gourmet Goodies The small, hardworking team at The Gourmet Shop interact with their customers everyday so they know what people want and make sure to have it in stock. They carry all the best known brands including important things like Irish Draft Guinness, complete with the widget, along with Bud Light and Coors Light from the USA. That’s gourmet to some people! Of course, in addition to customers’ choice in beer, they have quality wines and liquors too. Their new line of Nature’s Charm from Thailand is gluten free, organic, vegan and sure to be a hit. It is a full service shop with everything from Espresso coffee pots to truffle oils & prime meats. Rare Quality, Well Done! Visit Clifton Meats Farm Shop in St. Thomas, or their new south coast location in Worthing, for top quality beef, pork and lamb. Their pure bred Angus herd is pasture raised on 240 acres, using sustainable farming practices, ultimately producing prime cuts that are dry aged for 28 days to develop the most intense flavour and tenderness. Their locally produced bacon and sausages are hugely popular – all natural ingredients with no fillers or preservatives. They can cut to order, so just call if you have something special in mind and delivery is free on orders over BB$100.
