If I need Thai or Holy basil, I head for Global Foods!…read more This time in I had no service at all so I couldn't check in and take photos. I got the Holy Basil, some bean sprouts, taro root (makes great chips!), a bag of mini chocolate stars, and salty black licorice. I love going up and down the aisles! Always something new to see. Go in and walk around and find a lot of treasures!

This is a much smaller space than I was expecting, but it had a good amount of international items…read more We came by looking for specific Filipino condiments, and was happy to find bagoong (shrimp paste). It was about $4.00 cheaper compared to another Asian market. They also had various Filipino frozen goods: tocino, longganisa, lumpia, and frozen meals. I was impressed by their Japanese goods section, but I didn't need anything at the time! The parking lot is small, so just be mindful getting in and out.

They have a huge selection…read moreof sauces, noodles, snacks, drinks, frozen foods, produce, seafood, and a lot of things that are hard to find at a regular grocery store. We also really like the hot pot meat here. The quality has always been good and there's usually a nice selection. Another plus is having China Bistro and Cube Tea inside. It's nice being able to grab food or a drink while you're there. It can get pretty busy, but there's always a lot to look through and I usually end up finding something new. Definitely one of my favorite Asian markets in the area.

Stumbled upon this tiny place and had to stop in when we saw the grill out front. That might have…read morebeen the best decision we made today. Ordered some tacos and drinks outside then went in to browse. Our daughter spent a Summer in Oaxaca and it was fun to see many of the things to which she introduced us while visiting. Had some Barbacoa and carnitas tacos and they were exactly like we'd find them on the square in Oaxaca! They also have tlayudas and I'd encourage anyone who hasn't had one to give them a try. Think pizza on a tortilla - yum!! Thanks and we'll be back!

A very nice market and eatery. I stopped by at 8:30 am to check them out and the place was…read moreimpeccably clean. I was hoping for fruits and vegetables but they are not set up for that. It's a smaller place more like a counter-order delicatessen with grocery shelves featuring Brazilian dry and packaged goods. They sell drinks, frozen meats, and other delicacies like frozen tamales in their coolers. Their Brazilian style flan is tasty, sold in small cups and one is just enough. I tasted Brazilian cheese bread for the first time and also bought their chicken empanadas. There were a few tables and I think it's possible to order plates or sandwiches at lunchtime. The warm and dignified lady running the shop is personable despite my linguistic disability. So by all means go treasure hunting here for some delicious and also fun Brazilian foods

El Jarocho is exactly what you hope for when you want real, unfussy street tacos done right…read more We ordered pretty much all the street tacos to get a full sense of the menu, and it turned out to be a great way to do it. Everything came out fast, hot, and generously portioned, with the classic setup: warm corn tortillas, chopped onion, cilantro, lime, and a lineup of salsas to round things up. The birria tacos were the clear standout. Deeply savory, rich without being greasy, and packed with tender meat that tastes like it was cooked with real care. Don't forget the consomé to level these up even further. These were easily our favorite -- the kind you keep thinking about after your meal is over. The other meats were solid across the board, and it was fun to compare them side by side. Nothing felt like filler, and the tortillas held up well even as we worked through a full tray. Portions are generous and the prices feel fair, especially considering how satisfying the tacos are. This is the place you come when you want legit tacos. Don't skip the birria. We'll definitely be back.

They also offer catering and seemed very busy with the Ramadan season. If you want to eat more Mediterranean style or try something new, check out Hebron Market.
