The Winged Lion The Winged Lion is a lifestyle store that has a wonderful combination of food, drinks, and home decor! I love all the charcuterie and home decor items that you can pick up there, but my absolute favorite items are in their food section! They have an amazing variety of flavored salts and sugars that are perfect to enhance your savory and sweet dishes. They sell a bottle of balsamic vinegar that is out of this world, but my favorite item at the store is a bottle of Olive Oil. Now, this isn't just any bottle of Olive Oil, it is Bramasole Olive Oil, yes, that Bramasole! For those not familiar, there was a movie that came out years ago, Under the Tuscan Sun and Diane Lane's character buys a villa in Italy named, Bramasole. The movie is based on a true story and they really do harvest the Olive Oil on the property so it really is a special treat!

I love the worn and weathered look to them and the flour that has been ground into the board from heavy use! If you are shopping for someone who loves to entertain, they offer several books on the subject! furnish is perfect if you are also looking to source up your space with their interior design options!
