Pretty awesome spot!!…read more I can speak for the smoothie/juice bar which is an extension of the market area. Based off of first impression this spot is very clean. They have the fruits and veggies ready to go and all of them are bright and fresh. Nothing looked like it had been sitting out. The service was quick and friendly too. They also have free samples of hot apple juice. I tried the one with pomegranate and it was delicious. Literally the most perfect fall treat! What we had: - Yellow Power Smoothie: my husband got this and he says it was really good. It was perfectly balanced and he drank this one pretty quickly! - Build your own Juice: love that they have this option! So helpful when you don't exactly vibe with any of the ones on the menu. I chose one with carrot, orange, and watermelon. The juice was perfectly balanced! I tasted hints of all the components in every sip, not too much of any one ingredient. I would definitely make this my go to spot for juices and smoothies if I lived in the neighborhood. 100% recommend!

My review is focused solely on their juice bar (however we do buy our produce from here, too!). My…read morehusband and I LOVE that they have a 24-hour juice bar that serves fresh juices and fruits. They have about 14 different types available (7 juices and 7 smoothies), though you're also able to create your own. We love that they use FRESH everything in each of their recipes! You can literally watch them grab the fruits and veggies needed for your drink as they place them into the juicer/blender. It's very reassuring to see this as you can't always trust fresh ingredients are being used in other places that make smoothies. When ordering a smoothie, they'll ask what you want for the base. The options are Apple juice, coconut water, almond milk or water. We almost always choose coconut water as it's a great source of electrolytes AND tastes absolutely delicious with any of the smoothies using tropical fruits. They also have a delicious Apple cider tea! It's always out (hot and fresh), they have about 4 different varieties and they allow free samples. I love the clove and ginger flavor and my husband loves the ginger honey flavor. You can purchase this as an individual cup or as a half gallon or gallon option. I can't wait for autumn to hit as this tea is PERFECT for a chilly autumn day! And I plan to purchase in bulk to keep at home so I can indulge without having to walk so far every time I want it. Our new Sunday ritual is to buy our produce and then grab a juice/smoothie from here. We love coming here and I'm sure you will too!

I'm in my fourth year of membership for this CSA and it's great. I get the freshest veggies and…read morefruit ever (fresher than what I've gotten at the farmers' market!) delivered locally to the Forest Hills Jewish Center. The amount of veggies and fruit delivered is likely too much for a single person like me so I split my share with a friend (or two). What I've loved is learning about new produce and supporting local farmers. I now am pretty expert at cooking with kale (hated it at first), garlic scapes, kohlrabi, celeriac, purslane and so much more. The farm we support believes in producing hearty, healthy, organic veggies and you'll see loads of them in the deliveries each week. The CSA gets produce delivered from Golden Earthworm Organic Farm on LI, fruit and berries from Briermere Farms on LI, grains/four/amazing beans from Cayuga Organics near Ithaca NY and then usually another farm for garlic, cheeses and jams that are offered during the season. Since the pick-ups are at the FHJC, all of the items are kosher. Sign-up is only during March/April and then the season starts just after Memorial Day and runs through the week of Thanksgiving (26 weeks - weekly pick-up). There is also a winter season with root veggies that runs from Dec-March where the pick-ups are every three weeks with more carrots than you might know what to do with (make Carrot Candy -- great recipe from Mark Bittman that I swear by). Overally, a wonderfully run CSA and I'm glad to to be a member. This year, you can pay for your share by PayPal (so I guess they sort of accept credit cards too).

I was wondering: green market vs a CSA? Since the Forest Hills greenmarket and Tuv Ha'Aretz CSA…read moreare in the same location, it really came down to cost and choice. You have to sign up and pay in advance for the whole season, usually in the spring. I emailed tuv@fhjc.org to get on their list and to inquire about availability before my first year as a CSA member. Volunteering is required (help at share pick-ups, newsletter writing, deliver unclaimed shares to the food bank, unload the delivery truck, events, etc.) keeps the costs of the shares down; I have been part of a CSA where volunteering was not required, and it costs over double what I pay at Tuv Ha'Aretz, so it's well worth the pay-back of volunteering for a few hours. In terms of cost, the CSA wins -- at about $25 a week, it's a bargain. For the same amount of vegetables, I can pay about $40 at the greenmarket. In addition, I enjoy playing a version of "Iron Chef" against myself -- use up all the vegetables and fruit we get (after all, wasting the vegetables is a waste of money, too). They're chosen by the farmers, so the delivery is often a surprise and an education when we get things we haven't cooked with or eaten before. I've learned to prep and love purslane, for example. And I've learned that some dishes -- for instance, like spanakopita -- are about anything which can be called "greens" -- chard, herbs, onion tops, turnip tops, carrot leaves, kale, lettuces, etc. -- and not just spinach; so, it's become my go-to for masses of greens and herbs when they are producing heavily. With a CSA, you get a share of what the farmer is growing every week for half the year from June to November. This CSA gets its shares from an organic-certified farm (Golden Earthworm); the fruit is minimally sprayed -- pests make this the reality of trees and fruit bushes in our locale. In contrast, the farmers' market allows you to pick and choose among what's available: organic vs non, choice of produce, etc. My cooking has changed, and I feel more attuned to the seasons since joining this CSA. The separate winter share is, as expected, less exciting and varied, but that's the reality of winter vegetables and I've become more creative and open about how I cook and feed my family and friends throughout the year. For instance, too many squashes? I make ravioli, risotto, potstickers, shepherd's pie, halvah, chili, etc. We live in Queens, considered the most culturally diverse county in the country, so we have a lot of inspiration to use "what's in the box" every week. At ~$25 a week, I can afford to supplement from the greenmarket if there is truly something else I want in my kitchen and table. And I really love that I don't have to garden to get amazingly fresh and vibrant produce.

Not sure why this place has low ratings because I came on a Sunday night and I was so impressed!…read moreThis market is located in Bushwick. I saw from outside they had a deli so I figured let me get a quick meal. As I walked in I saw everything was so neatly organized. It looked like no one touched anything, every product was in itself place. I must have gone at a great hour because there were not too many people inside. It was probably the cleanest supermarket i have been in. I will say the deli items were pricey but it was delicious! I unfortunately do not live nearby but if I did, I would definitely go more often.

99 Ranch Market is an awesome destination for authentic Asian grocery shopping and vibrant food…read moreculture. The market offers a remarkably diverse selection of fresh Chinese vegetables, herbs, mushrooms, specialty greens, and imported ingredients that are often difficult to find in other traditional supermarkets. Their fresh bok choy, Chinese broccoli to lotus root, taro, bitter melon, and exotic mushrooms are so fresh! Never seen such a great selection! The seafood department is particularly impressive and worth the trip. Large live tanks are filled with fresh green crabs, lobsters, clams, oysters, shrimp, and a wide variety of whole fishes. For seafood lovers, this section alone is worth the visit. Downstairs, you can find their food court with multiple vendors offering Chinese comfort food, noodles, dumplings, bubble tea, roasted meats, and freshly prepared dishes at very reasonable prices. The staff mostly speak Chinese, which was great for me practicing my basic few sentences. The store also offers some special discounts.

When you shop and buy $50 bucks of products at Chang Jiang Supermarket within 90 minutes you get parking for free. Purchased $25 dollars and overstay 90 minutes. My parking fee was $10 bucks. Great deal compared to parking at other lots that can cost $12-$16. Definitely, the aisles were well maintained here. We shopped for papaya and staff was picking up the wrappers and sweeping the floor. Lots of sales when it comes to shopping for vegetables. Fruits are fresh and well packaged. Busy shopping here and lines get long at the cash register however staff is very efficient and moves quickly. Will be back again.

Pure chaos…read more Mentally, emotionally, and even physically prepare yourself before you walk through these doors. I've only been to one other Aldi's (out of state) and that seemed to be more relaxed, organized, and clean, but this one seems to attract some of the worst shoppers I've ever encountered: shamelessly opening packages, knocking products down, destroying items, and misplacing them. I get it's a discount market and that this shopping center in particular pulls in most of Queens but it's reminiscent of Black Friday in the 2000s most of the time--at all hours. So many aggressive shoppers who are very likely ready to shove you. It is somewhat better during the weekdays and I always get most of what I need. Their meat and cheese selections are excellent and decently priced. I don't suggest getting anything brand-name because they definitely charge a little more than elsewhere but for everything else, you can tell when big labels make an off-brand version for Aldi. The staff is here and there at times and they are definitely understaffed, even during peak hours. I've seen them get frustrated with unaware shoppers, which is understandable. Don't make this your one-stop shop if you live in the area or have a market near you. Not worth the stress navigating through people and long lines at times.
