Wow, I can't believe I've never been here before!…read more It's larger than it looks from the outside. There are tons of groceries available, as well as cooking ware and some health/beauty products. I'm impressed by their variety of lentils, grains, and packaged foods. They also have one of my favorite brands of chai (Quik Tea)! The only downside is that some of the items aren't labeled with their prices.

Ok folks, no more driving all the way to Berkeley for Indian groceries. This little gem of a store…read moreis legit, and should really be patronized as much as possible! I poked my head in for the first time today, a bit shameful of me as I am a resident of Hercules and I like to cook Indian food. Major selling points for me: 1. FRESH CURRY LEAVES in the refrigerated items. I could stop here, but let's continue... 2. Large variety of common-in-Indian-cuisine types of dals/lentils/legumes, flours (including Barley flour, and other common flours for all the different types of Indian breads), spices both common and specialized (ie. Kashmiri Chili Powder, Asafoetida, etc), Popular basmati brands (Daawat - both Traditional & Ultima, Royal Authentic, and others)... 3. Freezer section has coconut, drumstick vegetable, pre-made breads and other common items found in Indian grocery stores. 4. NO EXPIRED ITEMS that I picked up and checked, and believe me, I went looking for them. Having expired items on the shelf at any grocery store is such a huge turnoff for me, and this store had within-expiry date products, and a very nice and helpful employee actively restocking the shelves while I was there. Very good sign! 5. They had common British sweets at the counter, such as Cadbury Flakes. Maybe a little too convenient! :) Today when I went, they had fresh Fenugreek leaves and guavas in the front of the store on display. I was told they had some mango and guava pastries in the back (I passed this time, but will seek the pastries out in the future). I have a feeling they probably have different fresh items as they happen upon them if they are good quality and are in season. All in all, I can't think of anything that other bigger Indian grocery stores have that this little store didn't. Great variety and well stocked! Sarab and Jessica were very nice and helpful employees, and they happily got my business today. I look forward enthusiastically to continuing to patronize their wonderful little store. Thank you KS, lucky to have you in Hercules!

Some of their products can be concentrated on the taste but I always find ways to combine them with fresh produce to dilute them a bit.

Knowing the person who makes your food adds that so more to my enjoyment when eating. Look forward to their new "Turkee and Stuffin" available to order for thanksgiving!

Tofu Yu, for me, for everyone!…read more Another new vendor at Stonestown's farmers market.

I love this ' INDIAN GROCERY STORE ' in Richmond, Ca. Been…read moreshopping here for about a decade now ! It is ' Spacious ', and has a ' Large Selection of Spices, Indian herbs like ' Curry Leaves, Cilantro , Few Veggies, Pickles, Paan, and Myriad Frozen North & Soith Indian Meals !!! The Cafe, Hot Table seems to've closed ' Post Covid - 19 '. Also they sell quite an Assortment of Indian Made ' Pots & Pans / Household Goods '. They seem to have some type of ' Beauty Salon ' with Waxing for Ladies '. Staff is ' Usually Friendly '& Helpful Enough. The owner and his son worked there. Then they used to have Young Nepalese Ladies & Guys. One at the Counter, and a Floor Helper. Last Evening though I had a ' Weird Experience ' though. The ' Lady Floor Helper ' was ' Unprofessional & Highly Inappropriate in her Sales Conduct'. Not sure if they're Managers or New Owners, but the ' Turbaned Sikh Gentleman @ The Counter was Polite , Helpful & Nice. I hate to affect anybody's Business, but I couldn't reach them for ' one thing ' !!! + I have no way to reach the Owners. All in All - she was ' Sarcastic & Highly Unprofessional '. I went up to pay - having gathered my Groceries. Am usually the sort who allows Folks with ' Fewer Items to Proceed ahead of Me '. Upon reaching the Counter - I realized that I had forgotten a ' Specific Khara / Savory Indian Snack named ' Ghatiyeh ' ; the Male Cashier, The Sikh Gentleman ' was ' Very Understanding '.

They bow offer a full sandwich bar where everything is made to order with your choice e of bread, meats, and cheeses. They are pretty large and filling sandwiches too, and at $11 they are at least $2 cheaper and faster than Little Louies. The other good reason to get your lunch here is that being a grocery store, you can more options for chips, snacks, and even fresh fruit to go with tour lunch. I've been hooked recently on their Lentil Chips with Sriracha or Aged Cheddar.

The quality of the products is second to none, i.e. the almond butter is the best among any brand I've ever tasted, and the seeds, spices, honey, cacao, coconut butters, sugars, grains, nuts and oils that I have ordered have all been extremely fresh and vibrant-tasting. Even though the products had to be shipped across the country from the West to the East coast to reach my door, they always arrive undamaged and taste like they have just been harvested. I wish I lived in Berkeley because then I would be begging for a job at LTC! From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping educate and supply the healthiest living foods so that we all can live a long and healthy life!

Lake Baikal Siberian Pine Nut Butter - Alive & Organic…read more I am a real nut and seed butter lover. I have tried many. I am also a pine nut fan. I make pesto weekly, with fresh organic basil and organic extra virgin olive oil. Sometimes, I eat pine nuts as a snack. I had never heard of Siberian Pine Nuts until I came upon this delicacy. This is a real treat. It has the most delicate buttery, creamy, slightly sweet and complex taste. It was very hard to put the spoon down. This is perfect for dipping fruit, spreading on toast, for adding to a smoothie or making pesto; but I honestly wouldn't. This is a real indulgence on its own. I absolutely recommend this product. It's raw, organic, made by an amazing company; it's a real sensory experience. True delicacy!
