    To say that Abu Bakar is well-stocked is a gross understatement! The shelves are absolutley…read morechoc-a-block with row upon row upon row of immaculately presented groceries of endless variety and flavour! Wow! If, like me, you ever struggle to choose between about three sandwhich options then you may be liable to be frozen in cant-decide panic at the endless choices presented to you by Abu Bakar! Even the halva section appears to be never ending! They sell a wide selection of vegetables, a broad variety of juices, endless rows of pulses, spices, herbs, cakes, bread, jars of pickled items, huge sacks of rice and flour - possibly aimed at businesses but may be handy if you live in a big house, loads of condiments (including some very mysterious and tantalising items such as a pot of chololate and cherry something...spread?...whose ingredients list was in Polish only). Homeware-wise they have pots, pans, crockery and kitchen utensils. There is also a halal meat counter. As Susan mentions, Abu Bakar is aimed at the Aisian community, but for anyone like me with boringly British culinary habits it is a fascinating and exciting place of endless possibilities and obscure and intriguing ingredients.

    Sitting somewhere between supermarket and corner shop, Abubakar is aimed mostly at the Asian…read morecommunity, with a large selection of Halal meats and more exotic fruits and spices, but it's also a popular spot with local residents and students looking to stock up. They often have good deals on fresh fruit like mangoes, and you can pick up all the ingredients you could possibly need to cook a decent curry from scratch. The staff are really helpful, and the nearby parking means it's ideal if you need to do a large shop but don't want to do the supermarket run. Worth stopping by to check out the huge range of exotic fruit juices - hangover heaven.

    I didn't know this shop existed until I read the previous review, and thought I'd pay a visit last…read morenight. And I'd agree that this is the better of the Asda's in the area, but if you've been to the other one then that isn't saying much. It is a blast from the 80's with municipal swimming pool style exterior, original tiled flooring and my favourite - artexed interior walls. The car park is perfectly adequate if you're driving a Smart car and don't mind it getting kicked in by the chav kids hanging around outside, fully engaged in the business of kicking things in. I'd disagree with the previous review about the range of non-food stuff on offer - a small section of George clothing and a couple of aisles of general household tat, toys, electronics, stationery etc which I found a little disappointing. But apart from all these little foibles, it is a good place to buy groceries. I think it's because everything is more compact, so you don't have to walk so many miles to get from the potatoes to the ice cream, or maybe it's because you don't spend the first hour filling the trolley with the non-food stuff then rush around grabbing anything that you can shove in the fridge, but I came away with loads more food that I normally would. Had to wait a bit at the till despite the shop being half empty, then my receipt wouldn't print which was a pain in the rump as I always check Asda receipts as they've invariably overcharged you for something. The bill was £175, so I'm guessing there were a few overprices there that I couldn't find. But on the whole, it's a good place to go for groceries. Not if you're wanting to spend a couple of hours looking at pretty things, but if you just want a trolley full of grub and don't give a toss about the decor, it's spot on.

    The better of the 2 Asda stores in Doncaster.Good layout, wel stocked and competitively…read morepriced.Friendly staff.This sells a wide range of goods - primarily food and drink but also has a large electrical department, music department and particularly good is the large george clothing range - which all offer great value for money.There is a good sized cafe instore and outside there is a large car park.There are also a selection of cash machines here.

    There are plenty of arguments for and against the social impact of segregated communities in…read moreManchester. One of the overwhelming advantages of such communities however, which I'm sure will gain universal approval is their complete immunity from being threatened by giant retail food chains. You know the ones I'm talking about, the ones that've been driving out small independents outta business across across the country. I LOVE the fact that the communities remain militantly loyal to local foodstores like Madina. Upon close inspection, turns out the reason is a little more complex than just cultural affiliation. One of the main one reasons? This place is AWESOME!! There's literally a library of spices to buy (at BARGAIN prices) and experiment at home with. Any foodie/charlie out there who's sick of the monotonous nature of the shopping experience, will find this to be their culinary/chocolate factory. True, London probably bigger volume of such establishments, but they probably cant beat us for sheer quality. So next time you're stuck in traffic driving to town on Stockport road (through Levenshulme) have a break, and instead of having a kitkat, park up and have a cheeky gander.

    Despite having a deceptively small storefront, once inside Madina Superstore turns out to be…read moreanother Desi supermarket easily on a par with branches of Worldwide Foods or Manchester Superstore. With the UK 'hungry gap' upon us, I bagged a box of lychees plus sundry Desi vegetable and fresh herbs. Freshness of the produce was very good, although a bit of banter with a Desi customer revealed that he was passing up on the tinda as being too big - although this is no doubt an out-of-season issue. For the mobile cosmopolitan foodie such as myself, the aim is to know where all the ethnic food stores are so that ethnic food shopping can be done with a minimum of detour from other city business and pleasure. Although there is nothing really oustanding about Madina Superstore to make you travel beyond your nearest Desi superstore, it is nice to have a proper Desi supermarket in Levenshulme to save Levy locals a trip up Stockport Road to Longsight. And visitors such as myself can combine a visit to Madina Superstore with a trip to the monthly Levy Market, or else the permanent Trove café bakery or POD deli.
