Penzeys Spices to Open Its First Northern California Store

Lucky Menlo Park will be the home of it, too.

Penzeys, whom foodies love for its vast array of spices, started as a store in Milwaukee, Wisc. in 1957. Over the years, it has become a mail-order phenomenon, selling everything from adobo seasoning to zatar. It now boasts 39 retail stores across the country, too.

Fliers are already being mailed to Peninsula residents about the new 771 Santa Cruz Ave. store that will open “soon.”

In this lay-them-off, shove-them-out-the-door economy, Penzeys is actually hiring. Full- and part-time positions are available for “people who love to cook, and cook to love.”
