Thousand Pound Egg

My absolute favorite shop in Fort Lauderdale. Karen is so sweet and fun and has excellent taste. I love visiting and seeing all of the new and unique merchandise

Awesome whimsical and unique shop… I love the fizzy cucumber drink they carry. They have great local gourmet treasures, a wonderful collection of unique cookbooks at an affordable price and events you do not want to miss!

As others have said, this is a novelty store of random spices, cookware, and a whole lot of books. It’s a small place on a side street, next to Eat the Tea and other local businesses. There were various chocolates, jams, cooking oils, sauces, and salts/​rubs. I can’t comment on whether you can find most of the items (excluding books) elsewhere, but either way it’s tempting to make a snap decision to purchase some of those salts/​rubs of which most were around or under $ 10.
Like Sean M, I bought a single dark chocolate bar for $ 8. I’d probably go back when I’m in the area.

Adorable little shop filled with rare food goodies and culinary treasures. This is the kind of place you’re more likely to find in a college town or artsy area, so I was very glad to see this shop in Fort Lauderdale. The owner, Karen, has great, eclectic taste. I had to stop browsing because I wanted to buy everything I saw! Highly recommended for unusual gift items for both men and women. Karen was very friendly and offered me samples of chocolates and honey. I’ll definitely be back to browse (and buy) some more!

This is quite an interesting little novelty store, I kinda felt like I was in Alice in Wonderland browsing in here. Its loaded with colorful attractive hard to find novelty items.

Outside of the many unique new and used vintage books for food lovers, the place is sprinkled with many condiments sauces, vinegar’s, confections, jams, chocolates and other exotic tasty signature gourmet food stuffs that usually mingle with wines.
I ended up buying a signature dark chocolate bar filled with black salted caramel. Being that I rarely eat chocolate, I had forgotten that I was not fond of dark chocolate, I much prefer and love milk chocolate.
Irregardless the chocolate bar was tasty, the black salted caramel was scrumptious, it overrode my dislike for dark chocolate and melted perfectly in the mouth. I had never heard nor partaken of black salted caramel before, but I am a huge fan of it now.
For the Wine lover and those who are fans of hors d’oeuvres, this is definitely a place to visit.
The owner Karen is very friendly and personable. Karen informed me she also teaches yoga on the second floor next door to her store. She had invited me for a class, I had to politely decline, you have a better chance of getting me to bungee jump than to do yoga. The yoga studio is called red Pearl yoga.
