Step into a Spice Safari at Penzeys Spices in Menlo Park
Penzeys Spices has opened its 40th retail store in Menlo Park, CA. The place is loaded with plenty of spices, herbs, and seasonings for you to try to experiment with. It literally is a cook or baker’s paradise. There are apothecary jars where you can open up and smell all of Penzeys offerings. It’s a unique place to spend some time at.

For those unfamiliar with Penzeys, check out their website here. Owner Bill Penzey started the company about 25 years ago as a spice mail order company. Since then, Penzeys has expanded to various locations across America. Even if you don’t have a retail store near you, go ahead and place an order online and have it shipped to you.

Some of my favorites: Parisian Herb Blend, Sweet Curry, and Smoked Spanish Paprika

smoked Spanish paprika is a favorite, as is the Mural of Flavor.
