Pasta

The Pollo Piccata was out of this world, The Linguini Carolina was "chef's kiss, and the BREAD!!!! My husband was going to dump me for the person who made the bread! 100% recommend.

But the biggest reason to shop Costco dupes is the major savings. Costco pantry items like peanut butter, hazelnut spread, and nut bars cost way less than brands like Justin’s, Nutella, and KIND bars. And it’s not just about food; Costco is known for their impressive wine and liquor inventory, as well as household items like garbage bags, paper towels, and even big red cups.

“Since the Israel-Gaza war began, journalists have been paying the highest price — their lives — to defend our right to the truth. Each time a journalist dies or is injured, we lose a fragment of that truth,” CPJ Program Director Carlos Martínez de la Serna said in a statement.

You might be wondering, how good could a Costco dupe be? To be honest, most of the time it’s difficult to tell a name brand and Costco’s Kirkland Signature apart.

We had the calamari, the lobster ravioli, the bolognese, and the swordfish. The ambience is cute, very traditional, but really beautiful outdoor seating at night. Overall, great choice for a nice anniversary dinner.
