Cando

Cando sells Persian and Mediterranean food in a small off-​license-​esque shop. As well as standard groceries it sells herbs and spices and a range of pickled and tinned foods and condiments.
If you like Persian or Mediterranean food you could find some delicious cooking ingredients here, or if you just want to branch out and try something new it’s definitely worth a look. I would recommend exploring Kirkgate anyway just for its character and the row of rather dilapidated terraced buildings with peeling paint… it really gives you the urge to delve into the history of the area.
The staff weren’t particularly friendly and seemed to be having a bit of a row as I browsed… but who knows, maybe it was just friendly banter, but not very welcoming.
