It is actually a very Afrocentric store that carries African art, clothing, jewelry, sculptures and other items. I always enjoy looking at the elaborate fabrics and clothing that you can always find in these stores. If you are looking for African inspired gifts, incense or just something unique to add to your home decor, you may want to consider a stop at this shop.

My syrups were only $28 though and there were plenty of products in there that weren't super expensive. The employees were really helpful and informative and the space was packed full of stuff but it was very well-organized.

I would recommend this store to anyone and definitely will visit this shop again soon.

Travelin' man and I were scheduled to attend an all-day, Indian wedding on Sunday, and the day…read morebefore I asked him what I was supposed to wear. He pulls out the schedule of activities and reads off "Semi-formal or Indian." Hmmmm...we called up a couple of our Indian friends to make sure we wouldn't be offending anyone if we showed up decked out in traditional garb and, once we got the thumbs up, ventured out to see what we could come up with! My mother actually recommended this shop - she loves the colors and sparkles of Indian clothing - that is found next to Chat Patti near the N. Druid Hills and Briarcliff Target. I had initially planned to get a sari, but the saleswoman steered me toward a salwaar kameez (dress with matching pants) after warning me that attempting to wrap the sari on my own could prove to be more challenging than understanding the Lost finale. Clothing sizes vary from US clothes, so be sure to grab a wide range to try on and get the feel for the sizing before you get your heart set on any specific outfit. With some assistance, I started out with a few that made me look like a dowdy mother of the bride, followed by a few that were cut so skimpily in the front that they were practically obscene. Eventually I found the perfect fit in a gorgeous purple/fuschia number with elaborate beading on the bust. Inspired by my clear affinity for wearing Indian clothing (or perhaps the realization that wider range of options = greater potential for sales), my saleslady relented on the sari issue, picked out a gorgeous burgundy and gold number, and showed me twice (I assisted the second time) how to wrap it. I almost remembered how to do it myself (many thanks to Youtube for thre refresher course!) later! The people in the store assured me that if I was really in a bind, anyone at the wedding would be happy to assist me, although I imagine it would have caused an interesting stir if I had marched into the reception with my sari half-wrapped... I ended up getting both outfits - salwar kameez for the morning ceremony and lunch and the sari for the evening reception, and travelin' man got a traditional outfit for the morning as well. We even got a discount, although I am sure our price was still twice as much as what would have been offered to Desi customers. Although I felt somewhat self-conscious when I first arrived and started poking around, being the only non-Indian in the store, by the time I left I felt like part of the family. So don't be afraid to ask for help! And give yourself time to really dig around - there are so many colors, patterns, beading, etc. that every outfit in the store is truly unique. You'll want to be able to take your time as you sort through all of the different options.

I found my first kurta here at Ladlee, an Indian clothing store located inside Global Mall, an…read moreIndian shopping mall in Norcross, just off I-85 exit 99 (Jimmy Carter Blvd). The kurta set, shirt and pants, was $125. $132.50 after 6% sales tax. I thought this was a reasonable price for the design and quality of the kurta I got. I just wore it at an Indian baraat (groom's procession), wedding ceremony, and dinner (I wore a tux at the following day's cocktail hour, reception, and dinner). The brand of my kurta is "Sanskrit" (at least, that's what the neck tag looks like it says) and it's made in India. It's dark blue with a nice pastel floral pattern down the chest, surrounding the buttons. The ends of the sleeves have buttons too. The kurta is long and slim-fitting, and it has an inner lining. The pants are white, made of light fabric, have pockets, and stretch in the waist. I'm only 5-7 and Ladlee had plenty of styles in my short and small size. Turns out I'm a size 38 in kurtas. I opted to get my kurta pants hemmed (personal preference) by my tailor in town instead of at Ladlee because I didn't want to drive back up to Gwinnett just to pick up pants. That said, a little bunching is normal for kurta pants. My wife and I shopped at two other stores at Global Mall before choosing the kurta at Ladlee. We went into this kurta shopping experience blind. Aside from browsing websites like Kalki beforehand, we had no idea which stores were good nor exactly what kind of kurta I wanted. The other stores we visited were Rahul's Clothing and Radhika Collection. Rahul's and Radhika are on the first floor. Ladlee is on the second floor. I tried on kurtas at all three stores. The customer service at Rahul's was good, but the kurta I liked was cheap in quality, especially compared to the kurta I got at Ladlee. However, the price was cheap too ($75) so I can't knock Rahul's for that. If you're looking for the lowest price, check out Rahul's. The customer service at Radhika Collection wasn't great. All kurtas were folded, packed in plastic bags, and stacked on shelves behind the counter. This made it hard to browse. I didn't see anything I liked at Radhika. Ladlee is big and occupies two separate spaces: one for women and one for men and kids. I think Ladlee had the best selection of kurtas in my size. I tried on a couple and my wife and I quickly found the one I eventually purchased. The men and kids side was so busy that an employee offered for me to try on the kurtas on the women's side. That's where I made my purchase too. The customer service at Ladlee was great. We never felt pressured to buy. Also, while I was trying on kurtas, an employee offered to show my wife Ladlee's blouse selection, which they normally only show on weekdays because they're so busy on weekends.
