Extra Virgin, an Olive Ovation is getting ready for a change of address. The specialty shop announced that it will be moving this summer to 8829 Ladue Road in a portion of the space formerly occupied by Wild Oats in the Colonial Marketplace shopping plaza.
News from Extra Virgin came on Friday in an email sent to its supporters. The announcement noted that the relocation will mean a 30-percent increase in space as well as curbside parking. The email mentioned: “We’ll have a big party table, space for classes during store hours and room for many more of your favorite products.” Extra Virgin is one of a handful of businesses taking space in Colonial Marketplace. The Original Pancake House and fast-casual Italian eatery Cini are also both adding a location in the shopping plaza.
The specialty olive oil shop currently remains open for business at its location at 143 Carondelet Plaza in Clayton.
