We arrived late because we thought the class was 30 mins later than it was but we text them we were on our way. They were visible annoyed when we walked in & we did not get a warm welcome. I have to say there was only 2 people, a couple, in the class so it wasn't like we interrupted a big class. We were bringing the big class. And they had only poured milk into a pot & letting it warm up when we arrived so we had not missed anything. The whole class the women that worked there were not giving warm fuzzy vibes. It lacked fun & enjoyment honestly. We felt like we were treated like a nuisance & like we couldn't even laugh. The cannolis were good & we learned a lot.

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and friendly welcome from the owner. The store was very clean, organized, and well laid out, with a great selection of Middle Eastern foods, spices, condiments, meats, fresh produce, and more. There's also a fresh meat section in the back. I purchased a whole chicken and asked the butcher if he could cut it up for me, and he gladly did--excellent service! Then I discovered the restaurant in the back. The menu looked so good that I couldn't leave without trying something. I ordered a family-style platter to take home, and it was a HIT. For $48, we received three different meats, rice, beautifully grilled vegetables, homemade hummus, pita, and sauce. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The best part? The platter was more than enough to feed my family of five. For the quality, quantity, and price, you really can't beat it. Great food, great service, a clean market, and excellent value. I will definitely be back!

I bought her and my now deceased father a bottle of special olives. A beautiful day with beautiful memories. I can't pass by the shop without picking something up. Recently, my wife and I were walking past the shop and we stopped by to get something new. It turns out the shop has changed ownership and I guess "technically" changed its name. However, they have not changed any of the signage. Doesn't matter... Same great shop. Fine oils for cooking, delicious olives, and I don't remember if they had jams or not... But I picked up a mango chutney. We were greeted with a smile by a very pleasant lady. Had a nice conversation and a small tour of the shop with new ownership. I still strongly recommend the shop. If you're in the Hyde Park area think about stopping by.

Food was INCREDIBLE! I'm so impressed with how consistent the team/staff seems to be despite how busy they are with recent viral videos and an upcoming feature on Diners, Drive Ins, & Dives. They're open wednes-Saturday 10-6; Sundays 10-3 (brunch on weekends). I ordered the following with help from the owner: - the haymaker + Calabrian chili relish - Hillsborough hash + mojo pulled pork - boozy papas I need to go back to try the rest of the menu & their brunch specifically. The vibes of the restaurant are also super local community - everyone vibing. No frills

Great variety of Turkish delights and middle eastern goodies. The guy was very helpful in explaining the different fruits etc. we got some fresh almonds as this was the primary reason we drove here.

Great store to visit for desserts but for the almonds - I suggest you shop around first.
