Are you interested in great, artisan foodstuffs, the kind of food that is made lovingly in the traditional ways by small farmers and producers? Look no further that Regional Best, a new e-commerce site that gathers all kinds of products under one virtual roof for your convenience.
I must admit that when I first read the name of the website, I thought that it would be designed as a way to easily find local producers in your area. Though that function is semi-available, Regional Best is really designed as a way to bring attention to great, artisanally-crafted goods and producers. You can look for goods by region (south, southwest, west, midwest, mid-atlantic, New England), or yon can search for products by category (cheese, meats, coffee/tea, condiments, gifts, desserts, oils, etc).
I took plenty of time checking this out recently, and there's not much that I wouldn't order. I especially liked the selection of meats and condiments. Sadly, there wasn't as much on offer as far as desserts as I'd like to see, but it's still a new site and I'm sure they'll be adding new products as they find them. I think that Regional Best would be especially useful at Christmas for that foodie in your life.
