There aren't very many off-the-beaten path stores in the Salt Lake Valley. Even fewer that offer specialty, gourmet, and foreign foods. Pirate-O's, a great little shop with a front porch, says they are "where food memories begin." This is where you are going to find celebratory foods you can't find anywhere else--marzipan pigs, German christmas cookies, caviar, cheeses, foie gras, etc.
They make beautiful gift baskets for the holidays, full of fresh sauces, salsas, dips, chocolates, crackers, cheeses, etc. They have a deli where you can get delicious hot and cold sandwiches during the day. And their holiday spread of international chocolates, nuts, and other goodies is always to-die-for.
I always take time to hit the refrigerated room set aside just for gourmet sodas and cheeses.
Check their website, but don't stop there--it just doesn't do justice to the store. Visit before Thanksgiving.
