about Beet Jar’s move to the Quarter after 10 years in Hingetown, the question of the day was: Who will be taking over the space? The answer is Jeremy and Allie La Valle Umansky. The pair, who will be celebrating six years of next month, have signed a lease to take over the retail storefront across the street.
“We examined our brand, what it is and what we feel brings people in and yes, it’s good food, but also the how and why of good food,” says Jeremy. “A lot of people come to us for knowledge. We noticed a vacuum of culinary knowledge and access to tools. So we decided that a culinary store would be the next part of the Larder family.”
“There’s no place right now for a young line cook or prep cook that’s just starting out who wants to spend some money on professional tools,” he adds. “I can import an old knife from Japan, rehab it and sell it at roughly a $50 price point.”“Yes, the store is only 500 square feet, but the inventory can surpass that through online offerings,” notes Umansky. “If you’re interested in cooking at any level, we will have things for you.
“Retail is dead, but customer service isn’t dead. People still want a real-world setting where they can get that customer serve.”
