This time I came armed with a $10 gift card…read morecompliments of Fennel cooking studio, after a collaborative event where the food was purchased from Global Foods and used by local chef, Rick Lewis of Grace Meat + Three and Grace Chicken and Fish. Such an awesome local collaboration! Plenty of parking in the lot, and carts are available outside before going inside. The front area has large volume rice and then you enter the all the fun! Plenty of fruits and veggies, I always pick up Fresno peppers, loose okra, and Thai Basil. From there you have the aisles based on country, I always want to skip aisles, but I just cannot, there is always so much to look at, something you haven't seen from the last time. The frozen section holds all kinds of things to try; I like the frozen Indian entrees! If you need any kind of ingredient for any dish, you should be able to find it here. when it is time to check out, there are always plenty of lanes open and the staff is always pleasant and friendly.

This is a much smaller space than I was expecting, but it had a good amount of international items…read more We came by looking for specific Filipino condiments, and was happy to find bagoong (shrimp paste). It was about $4.00 cheaper compared to another Asian market. They also had various Filipino frozen goods: tocino, longganisa, lumpia, and frozen meals. I was impressed by their Japanese goods section, but I didn't need anything at the time! The parking lot is small, so just be mindful getting in and out.

The location was highly convenient. Shopping and dining options were satisfactory and reasonably…read morepriced.

This Asian market was recommended to us by other Yelpies, so we decided to come and explore it…read more There is a huge free parking lot right out front. In addition to the huge market area inside, there is a bubble tea stand, hot food with seating, and some skincare products across the front wall. The market itself is kind of amazing. There was an extensive selection of fresh Asian fruits, vegetables and herbs at great prices. Once we got into the aisles, there was, again, a huge selection - some of our favorite things were all the bottled sodas/coffees, the mochis and all the vinegars/sauces. In the back there is fish area that has live crabs, lobsters and even eels in addition to fresh fish. There is also a halal meat counter. We saw packages of frozen scallops, frozen crab legs and ground lamb that we plan to come back and try. I can't wait to return.

Glad to find this spot while staying at the nearby Moonrise Hotel. Sometimes when traveling solo, I…read morelike to load up on water so I don't have to drink out of hotel sinks during my stay. I was happy to find some fantastic canned cold brews as well, so I was covered with my "coffee before the real coffee" the next morning. I might have a problem. The vibe in here is good when you walk in, a little weird towards the back. I'm not sure if part of the back was open or storage, it got darker and more isolated. There were tons of other snacks and a lot of Asian specialty items as well. Nice to have a store anchored in a busier area and near the university. I will definitely pop in here again if staying in the Loop.

I reviewed United Provisions 10 years ago? And I gave it only 4 stars? Must be remedied!…read moreI now eat more international foods, though I'm still vegetarian and that limits me. United Provisions has turned into decent place to stop for a quick snack. When I stopped by last week, I bought 2 tornado relief fundraising mystery snack boxes. What a nice idea and so nicely presented. My cat enjoyed sitting on the wrapping paper. I've only unboxed one (the other is a gift). I don't want to spoil the mystery here, but I will add that I was a little disappointed that there were no chips or crackers in the box. However, the box value seemed quite good.

I used to eat here often and if you called ahead they might have to grab someone who spoke English…read moreto help but no big deal. It has been a couple years since I ate here so I looked them up on Facebook and apparently there had been some type of drama involving hate. Due to the fact it is very small inside and can easily sell out of Doner bread; I decided to call ahead before the 15 minute drive. A lady answered in English and I said I would like to make a carry out order. She simply replied sternly " NO ". I asked if they no longer took phone orders and again "NO". I asked if they had Doner's for sale if I came in and she answered yes as if I were very much not welcome. Maybe a bad run in with some other Customer. I get the impression that if you're not Bosnian then you're not welcome. Very Racist and Sad if true. I certainly would not feel welcome if I walked in the door here and we used to buy candy for our daughter there. Very sad if you hate Americans so much why come here?
