I love this supermarket. I rarely stop by here as it is out of my way to come here. But, when I do,…read moreI behave like a little girl in a candy shop. There are so many variation of food. This last time that I went, I got hard to find food products. I got frozen jute leaves for my Haitian friend. I got dried taro leaves for my Filipino co-worker. I myself got: bamboo leaves, frozen banana leaves, frozen bitter leaves, preserved duck eggs, fresh water chestnuts and tons of spices. I bought some meat from the butcher section and the guy sliced the meat up to my request. They have bones for soup. I saw durians, banana flowers, sorrel flowers, two types of bitter melons(the Asians and the Guyanese type), etc etc. They have Mexican products, Indonesian, Thai, Malaysian, Filipino, Indian and of course Chinese products. There is a huge variety of products to make dishes from at least half of the world. It is a typical Chinese grocery store. The aisles are clean and stocked with a lot of items. For example, the noodle aisle is 1/4 full of all types and width of rice noodles. So for those gluten free people, they will think that they are in heaven. They have other types as well. At the time, I was interested in getting noodles to make a few bowls of pho...therefore the bones and meat for it. They also have mushroom oyster sauce for the gluten free people. I digress. Anyways, give this supermarket a try. Don't get deter by the fish market with fishy smell when you walk in. If I were the owner, I would have put the fish shop in the back. BUT, what's done is done. Enjoy!

So this Chinese supermarket specializing in Asian items and also Central-American items ----…read morebecause a lot of their customers are Central-American immigrants ---- is 100% Chinese: all the staff are Chinese. They're not going to chit-chat with you about the latest news story in the New York Post. It's pure business: you walk in, if you want seafood that's still swimming in the tank, or, if you want fresh vegetables which aren't sold at Key Food, then, this place will pretty much have it. Other than that there's lots of Instant Ramen ---- from Japan, Korea, China, Malaysia, Vietnam ---- and lots of spices from both Asia and the Caribbean. And a "Goya" section too. Oh, Kimichi, did I mention Kimchi in glass jars? And yes, they do have basics ---- milk, eggs, cheese, meat, cat food. A great little addition to the Bronx, well worth a visit. A lot more interesting to wander through and see some interesting imported items you might want to buy; more fun than Key Food. Well worth a visit.

There are a number of similar names for this small, but mighty, establishment floating around on…read morethe internet: Ninth Avenue International Foods, Ninth Avenue International Market, International Grocery & International Food, Ninth Avenue International Grocery, or just what's written on the sign: International Grocery. Whatever the actual name, it seems that this Mediterranean specialty store has been open since 1947, run first by the Smitsis Family, and then the Karamouzis (including brothers Sotiris, Dinos, and Panayiotis). The Karamouzis moved it a few doors north to its present location in 1983. The neighborhood around the store has evolved a great deal over the years, but inside, old world charm persists. Everywhere you look there are bulk bins, barrels, and sacks brimming with: - Spices: all the staples needed for Mediterranean, Indian and North African cuisines, including za'atar, dried tamarind, cloves, allspice, rock salt, cumin, coriander, turmeric, paprika, red pepper, black mustard seed, etc... - Dried fruits: pineapple, apricots, raisins, figs, diced orange peel, dates, etc... - Dried nuts: cashews, macadamias, almonds in every form, walnuts, pistachios, etc.. - Grains, beans, lentils, and flours - Coffee I love that International Grocery has stuck with bins and barrels for all these years. Bulk bins were the norm when the store first opened and are so much more environmentally friendly than the ubiquitous single use plastic packaging we see nowadays. Environmentally conscious folks are increasingly coming around to appreciate bulk bins and I wouldn't be surprised if they became the hot "new" trend in coming years. If you stick with something for long enough, it comes back into fashion, right? The wonders don't end with all those glorious bins, however. Far from it. Improbably, all of the following (and more) also neatly fit into a store the size of a suburbanite's two-car garage: - Olives -- about 10-15 kinds by my last count, but I've seen even more varieties at times. I love my crisp, green Castelvetranos and black Kalamatas; the Progeny loves her pimento-stuffed Manzanillas. - Antipasti (mushrooms, artichokes, giardiniera, gigantes plaki) and preserved lemon peel - Feta (Bulgarian, Greek) and other cheeses - Tzatziki and other spreads - A variety of fresh and packaged pastries (baklava, kourabiedes, koulourakia) and halvas - Olive oils, pomegranate molasses, carob molasses - Pita breads and pasta - Rose water - Amardeen (an apricot leather used to make a Syrian drink of the same name) Prices are quite fair and the owners + staff are kind, generous, gentle and gracious. When my 10-year old privately expressed interest in the orange peel to me, one of the owners overheard and offered her some to try. They didn't look at all askance when she delightedly opened various bins to sniff the beautiful aromas within. (I did teach her to waft the smells to her nose by hand a la chemistry lab, instead of sticking her head into each bin.) As much as I detest the areas around Port Authority -- it's one of the dirtiest, smelliest parts of NYC -- I do go out of my way for International Grocery and will for as long as we're both around.

During my time there, I also witnessed serious food safety issues. The store was selling expired products -- including pantry items and drinks -- and instead of discarding them, employees were instructed to erase expiration dates using rubbing alcohol.

From Jamaican, to Asian, to Spanish they have the things you need to cook authentic meals. The aisles were a little slim for the carts, and were stacked high with a wide array of choices. They have a small fish market with reasonable prices.They must be a separate company within because I was charged separately from the rest of my purchase. This place moves fast but you should take your time in each aisle. You can find things that are usually hard to find here, if you take the time to look. I spent roughly $250 in and was very satisfied at all I got. The prices are awesome and low. I usually pay $5 for festival mix, here I paid $3.79. You already know that little bit adds up quickly.

Best spot if you want authentic Mexican food. Location: It is located in Morris Park, outside it looks like a grocery store but when you go in there is a small cashier that you can order the food. Also the grocery store has a lot of Mexican items that you can buy. Service: The server was nice, she gave me good recommendations. Food: All that I ordered was delicious, we finished it in one sitting because everything was delicious. PORK TACOS: omg the servings is huge and everything on it is fresh. I loved the green sauce to put on it. It was by far the best tacos I ate here in NYC. GUACAMOLE and CHIPS: another favorite! The guac is very fresh, they just made it when you order. The chips are crunchy too unlike other places that chips are already soft. Price rating: 6/10, it was not that bad for the price. All foods are good! Will definitely come back here cause I love authentic Mexican food! I will try next time the tostadas and hard tacos!

Because their çiğ köfte is legit next level. I've done my time with çiğ köfte, you know, but this? This was a religious experience. It was a kind of dizzying umami, and when I took my first bite, I swear I heard Ottoman battle drums in the distance. The flavor?? Unreal. The perfect amount of spice, texture, and that fresh, zesty zing. Had me thinking about my priorities--do I need to pay rent, or just spend it all here? The best part? It's a market, so you can pretend you're out for a friendly shop while secretly scheming your next çiğ köfte binge. The staff is so chill, the shelves are filled with all the Turkish treats you can imagine, the vibes immaculate. Long story short: You're missing out if you haven't made it to Nizam. If you have, you already know the deal. Five stars, ten out of ten, would 100% go back for more.
