I have good memories of grocery shopping in Rustan's Supermarket…read more When my grandma was still alive, I would take her to Rustan's Supermarket and she could spend hours going up and down the aisles searching for new things this supermarket had to offer. She would drag me here a day or two before our family reunions to buy cheese, meats and cold cuts. They do have plenty of options for cheese and cold cuts. A bit pricey, but the quality is really good. My mom and I frequent this supermarket because the lines for the cashier aren't that long, there are less people roaming around and shopping, and the place is pretty quiet. We like doing our grocery shopping in peace. If you get hungry in the middle of shopping, don't worry. You can sit down, take a break and eat. They've got cooked meals, a sushi bar, salads and sandwiches. Today, I found out that if you park your car at the 6750 Steel Carpark and shop at Rustan's Supermarket, you can have your car park ticket validated and you get free parking. Also, they put all your groceries in boxes. You can ask the baggage boys to help you bring the boxes to your car. They are so helpful.

Family Mart is one of the new convenience stores that opened last year. A lot of my friends from…read moreUST kept tweeting about it and at first, I didn't get what the fuss is all about. What was so special with a convenience store, like Family Mart, that people would actually make a big deal about it? I decided to check this place out when I went saw one of its branches in Eastwood. Family Mart has been dubbed by some as a Japanese sari-sari store. Unlike its other counterparts, they actually sell premium food such as garden salad, Japanese stable dishes, and even turkey ham. I bet you can't find turkey ham in 7/11 or in ordinary gasoline station convenience stores. I also like the whole setting of Family Mart. I feel that they actually made an effort to make it look good, unlike most convenience stores out there. I can actually stay there comfortably while waiting for someone.

I just love shopping here on the occasions I'm in Manila. I do remember when this store used to be…read morein Makati...ages ago. It was my Mom's frequent place for groceries, and I was always in awe with the items it contained...always entertained...thinking it was Disneyland in my youth. When I was growing up, rainy days and Makati Supermarket was always a great combination! Time flew by inside the store... To this day, the place hasn't changed much. It's still as clean and expansive as I remember. Although place has move from Makati to Alabang, it's much the same. The staff are always there to assist you with your needs...always sporting a smile and the odd greeting of "Ma'am/Sir!". The items in store are still as varied. It's a one stop shop for things you would need. At a price which is affordable, at a quality above par. You may want to scout around for specials before doing your main shopping. There's always deals around the store. On the last occasion of my visit, it was to shop for groceries we'll take with us for our trip to Baguio. As I expected, we got a lot of groceries for a reasonable price. I would always shop here when I'm home. I wouldn't do with any less than Makati Supermarket...

I have to say that the difference between this place and most other groceries is quite surprising. I'm not surprised that there are things here that I don't find in other groceries. What surprises me is that there the number of stuff that can be found here that I don't find elsewhere. Heck, this place sort of reminds me of member shopping at S&R or something. The grocery looks small, but it's actually capable of holding a lot more than most people would think. I mean sincerely for a place that doesn't look big, I was surprised by the sheer volume of things that I could find inside. Perhaps the reason why there's so many stuff is simply because of it's proximity to some of the richer subdivisions in the south.

Belcap has been around FOREVER. Even way before Maginhawa opened up as a food street, Belcap was…read morearound and thriving. Unlike everything else around it though, Belcap is more of a tiny grocery with food that you have to cook rather than actual meals that you can eat. They're known for their frozen food even though they have other things like snacks and detergent for sale too... so you can pretty much say they're a larger sari-sari store? Either way, it's the frozen stuff in the back that you need to go back for. They have all sorts of things: fish burgers, longganisa, chicken nuggets, hotdogs... but the siomai. The siomai is pretty good. While it's around 200php for a kilo, it's still a heckuva lot of siomai and makes for a pretty good meal. There's a LOT for sale at Belcap so if you're looking for a little something to add to your meal or make a meal out of, I recommend giving their freezer a look at. Protip: It's in the building that's right in front of Maginhawa's ZenTea. You have to go inside and head to the back of the first floor. Look to your left.

When I first moved to Teachers Village years ago, I'd always pass by Luisa 2 Building and wonder…read morewhat Belcap is. Was it a canteen? A supplies store? We found out then that they sell some food and groceries. OK. No biggie. Then we found out something more. PROS: My aunt used to get us these frozen chicken nuggets from the same supplier for McDonalds (or so they claim). We loved it more than the typical ones you buy at the grocery. But she lost contact with said supplier and we lost our nuggets. Good news, and the main reason we love Belcap, is that they sell these same nuggets! Hooray!; We mostly buy drinks here when we wait for our laundry to finish. CONS: It's quite dimly lit and not as exposed as the other stores. But hey, they've been around for a while and whatever their doing seems to work. TL;DR: Thank you, Belcap, for your nuggets and other processed meats for our lazy cooking consumption.

It's nothing fancy and won't carry fancy junk, but for a low-end grocery store competing with…read morealready established supermarkets along Commonwealth like Puregold and Shopwise, it does the job. A huge advantage is that the place is open twenty-four hours. That means if you live nearby and wake up in the middle of the night from a nightmare featuring a world without Piattos and Chuckie, you can calm yourself almost immediately by paying Commonwealth Supermarket an emergency visit. Any university student has experienced the need for chips, cigarettes, and acetone at 2AM, and Commonwealth Supermarket is heaven for those late runs. They don't carry tampons, but they do have sanitary napkins that will carry you through the night. They don't have more than one type of acetone, but it does do the job albeit with a little bit more rubbing than usual. That's really all you can ask for sometimes from a grocery store--reliability.

When Commonwealth Supermarket first opened, I was a bit surprised. Commonwealth Avenue is already…read moreteeming with supermarkets big and small. How the heck would a little guy like them compete? The answer to my question greeted me in big neon lights - open twenty four hours . The selection they have is more convenience store than a supermarket, but they being open anytime of the day simply can't be beat. Whether you're shopping around for late night munchies, some pasalubong for the young ones at home, or tasked to go for a beer run, Commonwealth Supermarket will be there to help you out. Speaking of beer runs, the supermarket is open during the holidays, even on holy week. That means when practically every other store is closed during Lent, you can drop by here (it all depends on how strong your religious convictions are) and buy your fill of alcohol. Yes, I know I'm going to hell.

It is spacious as compared to other Indian grocery stores and the things are neatly arranged. The store sells vessels which are unique to Indian cooking, goods for religious functions like lamps, kumkum, incense sticks. This place also sells food items from southern part of India like papadams, sesame oil. They have known brands like MTR Ready to Eat products. They also sell traditional Indian garments like Kurta, Pyjama. They also sell samosas and other Indian sweets. The sweets taste much fresh as they have a kitchen in the store to make them.

I like that this grocery has a big selection of items as well as kitchenware, books, and some clothing. All the items are arranged nicely and the place is very spacious. The staff also can help you if you are looking for something specific or need some suggestions. I like also that they have a kitchen where they prepare tasty snack like samosas and Indian sweets. I could probably spend hours here browsing and buying ingredients and food. Indian cuisine has so many complex flavors and so many choices to prepare and try. This place is exactly a great venue where you can come to be inspired to make your own versions at home! They good quality kitchenware that they sell are also nice and not so pricy. You can purchase some to accompany the dishes that you cook and have a truly authentic meal!

I especially love the houseware section and the kitchen ware which have well curated items. However I recently discovered that they only have 4 cashiers for senior citizens and 2 are not properly labeled. So the other 2 lines have super long lines of huge carts. It was a bit disappointing. I talked to the supervisor about this and I hope they will improve on this.

Since I spend P20K at S&R/Landers, I'm not concerned about the prices at Pioneer Center because they are reasonable and available.
