Surabhi Groceries

I found this grocery store after few of my friends raved about it. You can find almost all your Indian cooking ingredients. Prices are fair. And the owner is a charming man, always up for a laugh.
Look at the freezer for frozen Indian vegetables, Snacks like Samosas, Rotis. Some of the fresh veggies and herbs used in Indian cooking can also be found in another corner.
My favourite part of visiting this store is their Indian snacks section. You will find savouries from northern part of India, crisps from southern part of India, munchies from western India. Basically, if you are an Indian, looking for your mid-​day munchies fix, you’ll find it here. Non-​Indians, go ahead and try some of the things, you never know how much you’ll enjoy them.

I wish I knew more about Indian food to fully appreciate this little grocery. I had a look around the other day and left charmed by the place.
There didn’t seem to be any method to the madness inside (at least, none that I could see), everything is piled in and the sales assistants weren’t really focused on us. That didn’t matter much because it was just so much fun to walk around and check everything out.
There are different types of flours, lentils, papadums, a whole wall of chutneys and pastes, a Bollywood section behind the counter and little Ganesha.
I particularly enjoyed checking out the chutney and paste section. There were chutneys featuring almost every fruit or vegetable and they gleamed out in their colourful jars.
The Bollywood display behind the counter is also worth a look, they have a large range of DVDs and I was severely tempted by a few.
