Editorial Reviews
Dubbed "the mother lode of spices" for its "endless variety" of "superb" Indian and Mideastern seasonings, this "amazing" Murray Hill "bazaar" is also a "staggering" grocery "cornucopia" where "chefs looking for inspiration" can browse a "brilliant selection" of items both "common and exotic" – "wonderful dried fruit", nuts, rice, beans, frozen foods, "teas galore", fresh flatbreads, cookware...
Mostly famous for apparently limitless collection of spices -- including the mundane but ranging through cuisines from dozens of countries. Go-to spot for chefs high and low to find that special new somethin' somethin' to liven up a dead dish. Nearly absurd variety makes browsing an endless pleasure. Prices moderate except for serious exotics.
Editorial Review by Citysearch Editors:
Specialty-food emporium includes international goods from Guatemala to Yugoslavia. Spices, herbs, beans, teas, sweets. Cookbooks and cookware.
