Sometimes when doing a review you have to know when to not
do one. I love Provisions; they have
been my go to place in Eugene for several years for everything from breakfast
to late evening pizza or the best macaroons in the state. So when I saw that they were doing a huge expansion
and upgrade in services, I was excited to see the new venture. The problem with large expansions is there
are always growing pains, not only does the size of your business double or
even triple so does your personnel. You
also usually have more inventory and possibly even a new computer system. This is what has been the reality for
Provisions with their change to Provisions Market Hall.
Because I visited only a week and a half after the grand
opening the growing pains were very apparent, and because of that I have
decided to not do a full review as the problems that I ran into were a direct
result of the growth. So I will return
in a month and do a full review at that point no matter what the results
are. For now I will share the photos of
the new place, as it is beautiful.

The bright spot of this visit was my chance meeting of the
wonderful Stephanie Pearl Kimmel the founding Chef and CEO. She is so warm and passionate about
Provisions, she took the time to talk to me about a lot of things when she was
so busy looking over all the new changes.
After talking with her I know Provisions will only grow and be better after
this small bump in the road and will continue to be a shining gem in Eugene
because of Stephanie's passion and leadership.
So if you are in Eugene or just passing through do stop in for a treat
as they have a lot to chose from now.
Cheers & Ciao.
