I wouldn't really classify this as a market because it's super limited and I'm questioning the…read morefreshness of the refrigerated items since I brought a container of yogurt and it was literally rancid when I got home. However the Denver Halal restaurant is inside and if you're looking for a no frills spot to grab affordable gyros and chicken shawarma this is your spot. They will also sell you their meats on the spits by the pound. We grabbed gyros at $20/lb and they pile in in a container for a quick to go order. Let's be clear this place is NOT fancy, you don't come for ambiance and you don't come for grocery items but their meats and sandwiches hit so I'll keep coming back.

The shawarma was absolutely delicious and the kabob platter was mouth watering. Highly recommended.read more

I was in Denver recently, visiting my family, and I saw this market as I was driving around. Having…read morebeen to several excellent Arab markets in the Dallas area, where I live, I thought I would take a look. I was quite impressed! Meats and cheeses were abundant at the counter; there was a good variety of typical Middle Eastern products and some products I had not seen before. Prices were reasonable and the service was excellent. The place was crowded and I was one of the few people there who did not speak Arabic. That's a good sign! It means that Arash fulfills a cultural need. I'll be sure to go back to Arash when I next come to Denver.

Clean and organized. They had a TON of Filipino Goods!!! Delicious bakery goods from Goldilocks and Red Ribbon. They had my family's favorites, like, tito al's chicharrones, butong pawkwan, tons of ube treats, the line of mama sita's seasonings. Filipino foods, entrees and snacks in the freezer section as well. All of the ingredients needed to make, pancit, adobo (minus the meat), sinigang, fried rice and more. The store is PACKED with many goodies to choose from. We arrived close to closing time and the owners were still so welcoming. I wish I lived closer for the selection and service!

The shop is enormous but very well-organized, so whether you're looking for beauty products, clothes or (of course) groceries you'll be able to find it in a heartbeat. From the flowery ice cream soda called Pakola to digestive biscuits, from violet-distilled Banafsha syrup to preserved Hurda [inknut] fruit (good for swollen tonsils and hacking coughs respectively), from huge bags of Basmati rice to tasty fresh Samosa pastries, you can fill your South Asian needs here. World Food Bazaar is sure to become a must-stop on Havana Street from your first visit. Check it out and see for yourself!

It's a little different how the store is organized. They have a section called 'international market' with among other things Mexican, Korean and Japanese food.

Not my preferred store layout hence I don't shop here often. But they do have a lot of options.

I can find anything (in regard to Asian groceries) that I need here. Additionally, the prices are very affordable! There's plenty of parking space and the store is located in a plaza with many other great things going on: restaurants, pawn shops, beauty shops! This makes it very convenient and accessible to run multiple errands, especially when wanting to do other things.

Well, what's that business that's just sprung up in the plaza at Buckley/Mexico (basically, right…read morebehind Culver's?). Your theories are correct, Sherlock - it's a nexus of Nigerian (etc.) niftiness. Let's pay a visit, and get a little Jigi - Jigi International Market, to be exact. Oh, you've always wanted to try your hand at Naija cooking, but are just too pressed for time? Your prayers have been answered. Go grab a bag or two of the mixes for Ayamase (Yoruba pepper stew) or Ewa Aganyin (bean/onion mash with distant origins in Benin) and you'll find your day seems so much less stressful. (If you really want to get adventurous, you can even find the Oloyin - honey beans - needed to make the latter completely from scratch!). Spice aficionados won't be left out here either - snag a jar of Shito (Ghanaian chili/crawfish sauce), some Egusi (gourd seeds, ground in this case), or a bottle of seasoning blend designed to make your Banga (palmnut soup) really sing. And of course, the cooler has all kinds of refreshing beverages to tempt you, including quite a few from the Nigerian division of Schweppes. (On this note, if they happen to have it on the day you visit, try the fruitily-bitter - or do I mean bitterly-fruity? - Chapman, which would be a strong contender for the country's national soft drink!). All this talk of food has made me a little peckish, so let me take a break for a second to tell you about one of my favorite snacks from this part of West Africa - namely, Kuli-Kuli. These gingery little peanut crisps are often sold by, for example, roadside vendors to hungry commuters - and you can see why everyone's maxing out their gas tanks by buying a little plastic tub of them at Jigi for yourself. Then again, some soft, creamy butter mints would probably hit the spot right now too - or even a bag or two of Tom Tom menthol candy. Now that I'm feeling a bit more satiated, it's time to stock up on a bit of protein - perhaps some Bokoto (cow leg), Igbin (snails), or canned mackerel from Jamaica is in my immediate future. Hang on! I just remembered something that you'll love hearing about. With a little advance notice, you can even order some classic Nigerian catering - how does a little jollof rice or Isi-Ewu (goat-head soup) sound? Anyway, all this and more can be found at Jigi, so jet on over there now.

They have all the staple carneceria items and some great ready to eat options like fresh hot tortillas and tamales. My husband grabbed some homemade frozen chile rellenos and some pastor for dinner later this week. While he was back there the butcher gave him a little fried pork snack to try and he's in heaven lol. Then said to come back in a few hours for the pork belly chicharones... he just might do that! My only complaint is the lack of pricing on everything. I have no idea how much 90% of the things in there cost because they aren't labeled. Will definitely stop in again. To support this local shop though.
