They seem to be putting in a butcher counter and have also added lobster and crab tanks recently. They have a great selection and it's actually a good bit cheaper than other Asian stores! They also do a student discount which gets you an additional 10% off with a student card. They have a whole fridge dedicated mostly to tofu, with 1 kg costing you only 2.50, which is miles cheaper than most supermarkets/health shops! The staff are really friendly & helpful too. Great shop!

I challenge you to mix your grocery bag with products with as many different "alphabets" as you can and then invite me to your international food fiesta. It's so simple. Pick up groceries, google recipes and start working away in the kitchen. I'll be waiting for the invitation.

In this case I had a real reason to visit, I have twigged that I don't need to spend a small fortune in Tesco (or Dunnes or M&S or wherever) buying spices and condiments. I go here to get things like cracked black pepper - about 4 Euro for a small jar in the supermarkets, I paid 1.25 here for twice as much, oh happy me! The lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful and thought I was very funny for some reason, cant' imagine why!

Sari sari in fact means 'variety' in Tagalog and usually denotes a sort of Philipino convenience store. This little shop does just that. It's specilases in foods from the Phillipines with a few other Asian items thrown in. As Q pointed out they've got prices that are a lot more reasonable than your bigger chain food stores and a nicer variety of spices as well!

Thank you for the recommendation, Fodor's!

We were running out of time on our hunt to find them when I realized, 'I've got my trusty guidebook!!' And that's how we ended up here. It was 12 Euros for 6 oysters and a glass of wine. Since there were four of us, the lady was nice enough to give us 4 cups of wine (yes, plastic cups - it's a farmer's market, what do you expect!) They even threw in an extra oyster! SO FRESH! SO BIG! (cue that's-what-she-said joke). Compared to NYC oysters, these babies looked like they were on steroids! They also have this dipping sauce (had onions and was really vinegar-y, but good. But if you don't like the sour, you should just take the oyster straight.) Didn't eat anything else from other stands because we just had lunch. However, I believe they had shish kebabs, crepes, and bread. Oh and FYI - Sheridans Cheesemongers was there (saw this place on Anthony Bourdain when he went to Dublin so thought this might be worth mentioning). Definitely check out this farmer's market!

Living a porkless lifestyle, Shop Easi is my go-to place for alternatives in a pig-heavy country…read morewith a pigivore boyfriend. Most of the salamis and such that we buy, he says he can't tell the difference between them and the real thing. Being an adventurous eater, it's also my go-to for new tastes! From turkey rashers to mango cream biscuits, I always find something new when I go there. I love food from those regions of the world- Shop Easi stocks stuff all the way from Thailand to the Middle East though focusing heavily on India and westwards. The prices are quite low, too. Nearly every time I go in, I try a different drink from the cooler. The ginger beer's a favourite so far. In a neighbourhood where halal shops are a dime a dozen, Shop Easi is the biggest, and as far as I can tell has the best selection. The one exception might be the fruit and veg- it often looks fresher or riper in the place across the street next to the post office. Now's the time of year when mangoes are in season- go get a great deal on a big box of yellow "honey" mangoes. They're gorgeously sweet and will win you people's hearts in an instant. Yum!

The funny thing when I realised what had happened the second time because I checked the bag in my car (due to the previous incidence) and I went back complaining he just laughed off and went back and got me fresh ones!! These people should realise the competition from other shops out there and start respecting their customers. Thumb down Easi Shop

Well, that and I had 14 minutes to kill before the next Luas... Instead of wasting your money on a cheap takeaway, find the recipe of your favourite dish online (i.e. black bean rice) and go to the Emporium to get the ingredients. You can later spend the money that you saved on beer. Even if you're completely useless in the kitchen, you can still shop here. They have a new deli counter where I spotted a tasty roasted duck and on the other side of the shop, there's a fridge full of fizzy Korean drinks. Part of the fun is guessing what items are. Be adventurous and buy something different.
