Tesco Superstore

Wow is it wrong to love a Tesco? It probably is, but I live in an area that has teeny tiny supermarkets and this place seems so large for a London store. I weirdly found this Tesco a really entertaining way to kill a 40 minutes when stuck in Seven Sisters one evening.
What I found brillo:
1. They have a nice selection of home wear and electronics — woo hoo when did Kenwood food processors get so cheap?
2. They stock lots of ugly clothes from F&F and you can waste at least 10 minutes looking through the sale items and agonising whether to buy weird furry jumpers.
3. Best of all is the super dooper giant world food section. It’s a cornucopia of global produce, flowing with exotic foods from around the world. Often food from this section are strangely cheaper than buying the comparable product from a different area in store. For example coconut milk is way cheaper here than a few aisles down.
You can get your Caribbean, your Indian, your Turkish, your Kosher or Polish on to name just a few of the many cuisines that they stock. We very much enjoyed the Polish chocolate snack section. I can heartily recommend the Alibi bar — an awesome coconut, wafer and caramel chocolate medley. I can only presume it is named Alibi because it is so delicious you might not be able to resist stealing it. Therefore needing an alibi. But I did pay for it honest, for an import it wasn’t even that much £.
In true Tesco tradition, the place does seem a bit ugly and depressive, and the staff weren’t very friendly. All the served checkouts were closed so they push you towards the evil self service checkouts of doom — but despite all that, the amazing stock makes up for it and I wouldn’t mind if they had one of these in my area (well if it didn’t kill all the personality out of my local area that is).

My go-​to supermarket in the area. I like their world food section. You can find cheap stuff, but also a little bit of quality if you want.
