We Love Good Food!

What a surprise 🌿We had the pleasure of meeting Vance Kitira, the owner and founder of @vancekitira here at Surf Market today. Vance’s Timber Pear candles have been a customer favorite here at Surf Market for more than four years. In speaking with Vance, we learned about the exceptional care that goes into the making each of his products and that he has the good fortune of many siblings working with him to make his company a great success. Thank you, Vance, for adding such beauty to our homes with your elegant and thoughtful line of products. We are so glad that your solo road trip up the Mendocino Coast brought you to our store. 🌿

It’s all sunshine and rainbows 🌈 now that our order of @frantoiomuraglia 100% Peranzana Olive Oil has arrived! Five generations of the Muraglia Family have made biodiversity a priority, consistently protecting their olive trees and nurturing their growth. The oldest tree on the Muraglia Family estate is estimated to be 450 years old and produced the olives for their very first pressing. The Peranzana olive is native to Apulia and its low acidity, and bright, rich flavor makes it the perfect accompaniment to just about everything. Hints of tomato leaf, artichoke, radish and arugula , this special olive oil is an experience for the senses and a pure delight for the palate. Hand harvested, stone milled. Mangia!
Find @frantoiomuraglia on the shelving unit across from register 1. 🌈

Surf Market customer @srdoebling took dinner to the next level with her mastery of @food52 ‘s Sea Scallops with Puy Lentils and Fennel Cream. This perfect combination of ingredients is the ultimate salute to SPRING. Now, we must admit that we don’t currently carry Le Puy lentils but we are actively working on it! We love seeing what our customers are serving up for dinner and this beautiful plate had us drooling. Look for a link to this mouthwatering recipe via the link in our profile later today. And stand by for the arrival of Le Puy lentils here at Surf Market. Lastly, if we were to pick the PERFECT wine pairing we would choose @murderridgewinery Perli Vineyard Chardonnay. Happy Friday everyone! Spring is in the air and things are looking up. Thank you for the 📸 @fenwayca 🌿

“I feel inspired. We’ve had quite a year but there is an incredible amount of optimism in the air and for that I’m grateful. Our local farms are waking up and the farmers have a renewed sense of energy as well. Here we are, in the middle of the Mendocino Coast and in spite of our hard-to-get-to location, we have a highly impressive offering of local and organically grown fruits and vegetables as well as conventional choices. I can’t express enough how much I love our customers. Over the last year, I’ve been reminded of the immense value of friendships and connections. Our customers are our friends. Yes, I’m the Produce Department Manager but my job goes beyond that. We are feeding individuals, families and friends in their homes, at their tables. The produce we sell provides nutrition and countless health benefits to our customers. And in turn, our customers here at
Surf Market give me the greatest amount of joy. Next to laughter and farm fresh produce, joy is the absolute best medicine around.”
