This was my first time visiting the Schaumburg Farmers Market and it was much larger than I was…read moreexpecting! I visited for the holiday weekend so I assume it was a lot more crowded than normal. Either way, it was very easy to navigate and there were tons of vendors. Items for sale varied from produce, meat, sweets, flowers, artisan products, and more! They also have live music being performed by Elegant Ensembles! I would certainly come back to this farmer's market to see the difference during the regular week.

Jean Carlos in the produce department always goes above and beyond! this is one young man who truly does his job so well and really take so much pride something you don't see very much anymore. This store should teach other stores how to run.

I picked up the cuerito salad, nopales salad, chicharrón en salsa verde, guisado de res, and two tamales to go. Everything looked fresh and homemade. What really stood out was the customer service. The employee helping me at the fresh food counter was incredibly kind and even let me sample the tamales beforehand to make sure l liked them before purchasing. That level of hospitality really made the experience memorable. I came in for one

Can't wait to shop here more often.

The smallish grocery store and café is a hidden gem in Mount Prospect. It offers an extensive spread of Turkish and Central Asian food and products. The store is very clean and well lit. Staff are very friendly. All the departments are very organized and products are easy to find. There are good choices of bread and baked goods. Extensive desserts take center stage, with Turkish Delight and many other sweets neatly packaged. You can also buy sweets by weight, they will cut whatever rolls of sweets you like into pieces for you. Their supply of meats looks so fresh with superb quality, I would like to return to get some when my recipes call for lamb or steak. There are cheeses and many other products that look quite enticing. We have purchased some Turkish Delight desserts to share with family, but will definitely go back to buy more sweets as holiday gifts.
