I have no idea what that means, but they have good sandwiches. What to get: A Prosciutto sandwich with Fresh Mozzarella added, maybe What else: Expect an upcharge to add Fresh Mozz How to improve: Don't upcharge so much for Fresh Mozz (sigh) Nick's is a little run-down grocery store which sort-of feels like walking into a check-cashing shop or an urban convenience store that just happens to have a wonderful old-school NY-NJ style Italian deli inside. The deli itself is great, and makes a lot of awesome sandwiches for decent prices. As I said, I don't like the weird upcharges for certain ingredients, but so be it. It makes the prices of a sandwich soar from decent to ridiculous. The sandwiches aren't altogether authentic Italian NY-NJ style, but they are very good. I loved the parts of it that I had fresh, however when I had the rest of the sandwich a little later it had gotten extremely squidgy and soggy because they use a regular loaf of bread rather than anythng hard or Italian. Again, makes it less authentic but still very tasty. Despite these remarks, I haven't had a sandwich this good in the Richmond area before, so you should give it a try. And if it were Niche Produce, then they'd only sell unusual and hard to get hipster vegetables and sandwiches. Whereas if it wer Nix Produce, it would close down soon. And if it were Knickers Produce then I would have torn them down a lot more quickly and intensely than I did in this review.

I saw rave reviews about the nightingale ice cream sandwiches so I had to give it a try. We went to…read morenorth side gourmet which is where they are sold. They are located at the front of the store in the freezer by the windows. WOW! They had a ton of flavors and it was so hard choosing which to get. We met the owner Faizal who was super friendly and talked to us about these popular ice cream sandwiches. After staring at the freezer for a few minutes trying to decide on flavors we all ended up with 5 ice cream sandwiches - 2 strawberry shortcakes, pecan pie, miso churro & peach cinnamon. We got to the car and ripped them open. They got soft quick so be sure to eat them up quickly. These ice cream sandwiches were huge. Both sides of the sandwiches were thick and chewy and the ice cream in the middle was stacked full giving you that perfect bite. The flavors were all so so good!!! My fave though would probably be the strawberry shortcake which had chunks of strawberries in it. The pecan pie was very good too, my fave ice cream flavor is butter pecan so I knew I would love the pecan pie flavor. Can't wait to try more of these and we will definitely be back to north side for their full stock of them! Aside from the ice cream sandwiches this place was stocked with so many other items and food!! Check it out if you need some groceries and be sure to grab an ice cream sandwich too!

The new owners (of this once-legendary NPR-famed purveyor of exciting and diverse global delicacies, where one used to be able to write whatever they wanted from all over the world on a whiteboard and have it ordered imminently, and where any kind of delightful non-alcoholic beverage nestled among the eclectic selection, as well as local and organic fare) have taken a true golden goose of a rare gem and for whatever reason slaughtered her and replaced her with the same kind of dog feces convenience outlet that sits on every corner of the city. Yes, where the labyrinthine snaking crowded endless aisles of NG once displayed the glory of the globe and local goods alike for a fair price in innumerable delicious and holistic forms unfound for purchase anywhere else in the city, now we have a paltry fraction of the aisles left in a near-empty redundant hole of drug paraphernalia, crappy booze, and mass produced American snack products. The unbelievable lack of foresight underscoring the new owners punching a gift horse in the mouth by replacing a famous-for-good-reason slice of multicultural perfection that was sorely needed and wanted, and beyond popular, with absolute BS one can get literally anywhere else not worth the "novelty" of 24-hour crapola, was well summed up by the new clerk shilling it as I wandered stunned in my miserable foray of this corpse of my favorite store today: "Kombucha? Never heard of it" said he. It was in every flavor and wholesome brand and size but you got rid of it. "Local scents? Not anymore." Pity. Seeing a lonely paneer leftover from the golden days, I brought it to the register. "Ew, what is this cheese? From India you say? I prefer American cheese. American cheese is the best" said he. Ah, makes perfect sense, I thought -- that tracks, with you turning a beautiful joy into garbage, that you would prefer plastic American cheese to traditional paneer. It's what the place is now -- pitiful trash, like plastic cheese. STEER CLEAR, AND HOPE FOR ABANDONMENT, AND PRAY FOR THE REBIRTH OF A NEW TRUE GOURMET SOMEDAY.

This is a great little market with a great selection of all things Latin at incredible prices (particularly the spices). But this place has a something extra to offer with their small lunch counter in the back. On this trip in, DH and I ordered a bunch of the al pastor tacos (priced at $2 each). They were served up in soft corn tortillas and dressed with chopped onion and cilantro (just like they should be). Their salsa verde comes on the side. You may want to do to the finger test before pouring it over your taco as it is pretty hot and spicy. But it complemented the flavors of the al pastor tacos beautifully. Washed down with a bottled limeade, it made for a great little lunch.
