Large selection of Olive oils, balsamics and other delicious accoutrements. Plenty of small trinkets and other sweet items.

Faith Frankenhauser

Fun little shop in my favorite little town. Has imported chocolates and chews from Europe and Australia. Has other fun cooking apparel and items. Has fish pepper hot sauce, which is surprisingly flavorful and mellow but with heat, local Chesapeake delicacy. I don't usually like hot sauce, but love this stuff.
