Karin, the half of the happy couple responsible for the culinary side of the business, has a wealth of experience in the field. This experience was very apparent during a recent visit to the neighborhood deli.The shop is stocked with a range of products that can't be found in most regular supermarkets. Karin's knowledge of the products that she stocks is impressive and due to her extensive culinary experience, she is great source for recipe advice for customers.While food is a major focus, wine also plays an important role in making Karin's Deli and all round experience. With a whole wall of the small and intimate space filled with wines and other specialty alcohols, it's hard not find the right drink for a homemade meal.
