If you're looking for a hardcore Korean market, this is it! Here's what I mean by that.... It's run by an older Korean couple and I'm not sure if they speak English. The gentleman was watching Korean videos and greeted me in Korean. He was nice but he's not going to humor you in small talk. The lady was frying up fish for their lunch and greeted me in English. I love that they cook up fish with no shame but if you're not used to it, I don't know if that's a turn off haha. I came by for one item that the other international stores didn't have, and ended up finding it and buying two bags of random stuff and banchan. They also had Korean pears on the counter that I couldn't pass up. Lastly, their pricing was the same or cheaper than the other stores. I was shocked! All in all, you really need to try this spot for Korean goods!

Selection is somewhat small compared to competitors as well as being about 15% more expensive. I'll…read morepass for now unless I need a specific banchan and can't get downtown.

Hubs and I walked around the store looking at all the different items. I picked up feta cheese, fresh pita bread and package with two pitas that had a coating of zaatar. I was looking for what my friend in California called Lebanese pizza but didn't see any. This store has fresh halal meats and most everything needed to prepare foods. I didn't see fresh vegetables. When we came home, I opened the two pack of zaatar coated pitas, warmed them up and served them with fresh feta and my own homemade Shirazi salad and the pitas were fire! I will buy them again!!!

Currently, almost 50% their customers are of Bangladeshi or Indian Bengali origin and so they have expanded the rare products from Bangladesh. From Ibco packaged fish of all kinds to Pran snacks and Radhuni masala products. They also had a variety of shutki (dry aged fermented fish). They also carry packaged frozen goods. Basically, I have no excuse to not cook an authentic Bengali meal! The same with Indian and Pakistani food spices- the range of products has expanded! Also, they are planning to offer a chaat corner. I was sad to see that go but I am glad to hear it will be back. For Middle-Eastern food supplies, with Newroz and Azadi next door I am sure the competition on product prices will be competitive. But the guy said they are keeping the lowest prices, and there are several products this will be true for. Again from Barakat to Ziyad packaged spices and soft cheese they have added a variety of products from this region. They had packaged halloumi! I haven't had halloumi in ages. I took Arabic food for granted all my life and all the new ingredients give me reason to try new recipes. The latino range is good as well. Mostly Goya products for now and again tons of ingredients I have to learn about. This is a clean and well-organized store, unlike the stereotypes. So it makes grocery shopping all the more pleasant. As they are growing, World wide market offers a membership, so a discount that applies after a certain spend and they are open to suggestions for products that perhaps you would like to see. They offer competitive prices, quality products and a clean shopping environment so it's overall a great place to shop. I am so glad that at the very least such a place exists nearby!

There's Azadi and Newroz (both of which I like as well) and then there's World Wide Market. WWM is different from the other stores in the shopping center - its inventory focuses more on South Asian food products (whereas Azadi and Newroz offer almost strictly Middle Eastern food products). BUT WWM has a lot for such a small store. Fresh produce (I packed up a package of mint here that cost about $2 - and it was about 5x as much mint as you get in those little plastic containers at Kroger or Fresh Market), jarred food products (I picked up some hot pepper paste), canned goods, frozen food products, spices, grains (I picked up some couscous), etc. It has a lot to offer. If you like to cook - and especially if you like to cook dishes from or inspired by South Asia or the Middle East, these markets (including WWM) should be on your radar.

Let me take my shoes off before i start (arabic habits) :…read more Apparently this place is TikTok famous. I wouldn't know, I remain a proud TikTok virgin. But I have dated enough white school teachers who "love ethnic food" to hear about this place roughly 86 times, so eventually I had to pull up and investigate. And of course i had to trust the gals the eat taco bell at 2 am post 12 shots. Let's start with the "chicken shawarma," which is ,with respect: about five miles away from an actual shawarma. This is not a shawarma. This is a chicken sandwich that identifies as shawarma. The chicken is okay but a little dry, the flavor is playing hide and seek, and by the time you get home the sandwich has the structural stability of wet cardboard. Also, the vegetables are cut like someone lost a bet and had to chop them blindfolded. Overall? Fine. Would I order it again? Probably not. But given Nashville's current shawarma economy, I understand why some folks are acting like they discovered Atlantis. Personally, I daydream about real shawarma the way people daydream about winning the lottery, or the way poets dream about lost love (in my case that one girl in 8th grade) I also tried the mixed plate (rice, lentil soup, and three meats: kabab, chicken, and beef tikka): Rice: solid. Honest work. Lentil soup: extremely shy. Needs seasoning, confidence, and maybe therapy. Also a bit oily. Chicken: dry enough to file paper work with. Beef tikka: actually pretty good, respect where respect is due. Kabab: could use more garlic, onion, and emotional support. Didn't see a health inspection score posted, and the place could definitely level up on the cleanliness side, nothing terrifying, just not sparkling either. The bald uncle behind the counter is a little dismissive and chaotic, but the man looks like he has personally witnessed several historical events, so I'm choosing compassion. They do carry a wide variety of Arabic groceries and halal raw meats (which I personally can't buy because I'm allergic, tragic and traumatic storyline), and honestly they should give discounts to school teachers because those are the main people marketing this place harder than the actual owners. Not terrible, not life changing. If this is your first shawarma, you'll be impressed. If you grew up eating shawarma, you'll drive home in silence thinking, "we as a society can do better." And also need to be more politically correct naming foods but alas.

Hidden in the depths of a local Nepali grocery was a tiny cafe. It may have been small is size, but…read morethe tastes of the food there were powerful. Rajdhani was the name of the place where my wife and I took a friend for lunch. We had to carefully find our way down the narrow grocery aisles to find the restaurant, but was well worth the effort. For a starter,we tried the Onion Bhaji- crispy, crunchy fried onion strands. Really good, and when dipped in the spicy Nepali sauce, even better. Thence came a medley of momos- both mutton and chicken. The chicken seemed to be a bit dy, but when dipped in that spicy sauce, was just fine. The mutton momos-so good!! They were perfectly cooked and embraced in a sensuous steamed wrap.Those mutton momos were the stars of my meal. For lunch, I picked the Mutton chilli. The meat was cooked until firm, but not overcooked, and lay in a pool of tomatoes, bell peppers and Nepali spices. It came with a friend- a helping of moist, fluffy rice.My wife chose the Mutton Curry. I only had a taste of her dish, but the mutton was nicely cooked. Winner!! Unfortunately, there were no desserts on the menu, so we had to go next door to get our baklavas. Now to rate Rajdhani Grocery & Cafe. It was difficult finding our table and te seats were cramped,but the overall experience was unforgettable. The onion Bhaji was a wonderful way to and the Mutton Momos were unbelievably good. We'll be back and I recommend it to others. Five stars for Rajdhani Groceries & Cafe.
