Great Spices - Rude/Snotty owner 4/19/2009

If you can get past the absolute rude arrogance and snotty attitude of the owner, Tony Hill, then you are in for a wonderful experience and variety of herbs and spices. Since Mr. Hill was raised in Arkansas, you would think he would have genteel Southern manners, but unfortunately that is not the case. If however, you can go on a day the owner is not there, you will have a wonderful experience for the senses of sight and smell. Once you try the spices from World Spice Merchants, you will have a very hard time going back to the grocery store spices. Pros: Great variety of spices that excite and please the senses Cons: Most arrogant and rude owner on the planet more

Fabulous, sensory experience 2/11/2006

I love this place! The fact that they will grind fresh spice blends on the spot tells you they aren't afraid to show you what's going into what they sell. Sure the stuff they sell is more expensive than your run of the mill supermarket spice jar, but you get what you pay for. I especially recommend their Mayan drinking chocolate, pearl jasmine tea, 'zahtar', and kashmiri garam masala. Pros: Fresh, fresh, fresh, Knowledgeable staff, not rushed more
