Located on Euclid Avenue in the Chevy Chase commercial area, the business will host a grand opening celebration from 11 a.m. - 6 p.m. April 14. Along with tastings, Lesme Romero, from Lexington Pasta, and Jeremy Ashby, the executive chef at Azur’s, will demonstrate ways the different oils can be used while cooking (as well as feed those who are interested in a free pasta lunch).
Stuart Utgaard opened the first Stuarto’s Olive Oil Company in October 2010 in the Hamburg area. When considering a spot for a second location, the heavy foot traffic along Euclid Avenue, as well as the nearby residential areas, was an attractive aspect. The store’s opening comes at a fortuitous time, as many other nearby businesses – such as McAlister’s Deli and Graeter’s – have opened for business in the past month.
Stuarto’s Olive Oil Company is located at 804 Euclid Ave. Its hours are 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. Mon. - Fri., 11 a.m. - 6 p.m. Sat. and noon - 5 p.m. Sun. For more information, call (859) 269-0088 or visit www.stuartosoliveoil.com.
