I've visited Fooks twice now, and I've had great experiences both times. The pricing is fair and…read morecompetitive even compared to the bigger stores in the area. The other plus is the variety of products you just won't find in other big box stores in Athens. There is so much diversity packed into this tiny gem! I saw another reviewer complain about service, but that hasn't been my experience. The people working checkout were perfectly friendly and not rude at all. What the store may lack in cosmetic ambiance it completely makes up for in the availability and quality products and services. If you're looking for specialty Asian products, I highly recommend checking them out.

Great selection, but the owner is rude and foul tempered. I have been a customer since the store…read morewas on Baxter Street, and cannot remember a single time when the proprietor wasn't rude to me. Staff are fine, but the owner clearly has an issue with the human race.

Burritos here are top notch. You can't go wrong with any of the meat options. What makes these…read moreburritos the best though is the layer of Oaxacan cheese that gets melted in a thick layer in the burrito. Don't sleep on their salsas either, they are spicy but ideal to drown your burrito in. Add in a cold Jumex drink and you are set. Only recommendation is that if you can't speak Spanish, be prepared to use a translator app.

Saturday, I finally visited the fairly new Indian restaurant, Dharma Farms, in Eatonton (it's right…read morenear the Greene/Putnam County line, very near Lake Oconee/Reynolds Plantation). OMG, it's take-out only (for now), but it was some of the best food I have ever eaten. If you're in the area, try it! I got spicy (despite the label, it wasn't melt your face off level hot-- just pleasantly lip tingling), but they have something for everyone-- even if you don't enjoy spicy things. Even better, everything is packaged fresh and ready to go/ pack for lunch/ take out onto the lake/ whatever. The trays are completely sealed, so you don't have to worry about a mess in your car/cooler/lunch bag. They even make their paneer fresh in-house and roast/blend their own spices and curries. I also enjoyed sipping my first ever ThumsUp cola. They have some other food stuffs and Indian wares for sale there too. Treat yo'self! For the best selection, order ahead-- but you can do so easily from their website. You will not be disappointed! My picture is a lousy depiction of the carefully prepared deliciousness that I enjoyed, but I wanted you to see how they packaged the food.
