A variety of African flours, like fufu, grated cassava, frozen cassava, ground millet, fermented flours, frozen goat head, a variety of frozen fish, pickled mackerel, smoked dried fish and wait, what is this toward the back of the store? A menu of food! Jerk chicken, jollof, waakye, oxtails, curry goat, peanut soup! Watch Mark Weins in Nigeria and you'll see lots of this food. I can't wait to come back and try the food here. So excited to see this in Murfreesboro! Our food diversity quotient just improved

I visited the store and was very pleased with the selection of frozen foods including different greens, some fresh produce and all kinds of smoked and frozen fish. The vast inventory of cooking oils was especially good and the variety of packaged products was overwhelming. I am extremely happy that I do not have to travel all the way to Nashville to get what I want anymore. I understand there may also be cooked food in the future. A Facebook page would be nice, too. The young man who helped me make my purchases was very nice and professional. I will enjoy visiting this store on a regular basis!

I am so happy to be able to spend my money locally at this cute mom and pop spot over the big guys who are trying to take out small businesses in our community.

They have a credit card minimum of $10 or else you have to pay a $0.50 fee to use your card. I am so happy I discovered this place and will come back soon!

So I followed all the traffic coming to Noi's today and I found some very tasty prepared foods. One that knocks my socks off is a container of lettuce rolls. Hidden in the rolls of lettuce is a soft and savory paste of toasted and creamed sticky rice studded with roasted peanuts, freshly sliced lemongrass, bits of ginger and if you're really lucky, galangal. A separate foil package contains crispy pork rinds and dried red chilies, toasted to a crunchy crispness. Break off a little of each and tuck it into the parcel and chow. OMG. They call this "mieng Muang Luang." Capitol City packets. It hails from Luang Prabang Laos. This is some special stuff that you usually only get at people's homes or in Laos. Today, I also saw pickled mustard and "mok kai," little packets of chicken steamed in herbs---savory goodness. Heat this up and sit down to it with a fistful of sticky rice. The shelves were looking fuller and the veggies looking abundant and fresh. Custard apples and mangoes today. All looking good. Today, I also saw that you can order boba tea in the back! It's like a maze of discovery. I'll come back with my eyes peeled next time.

I highly recommend the store for all those hard to find Hispanic grocery items on your list! Gracias, Mercados Marias! El chorizo fue muy delicioso y me alegró tanto que tienes el turron que estabamos buscando! Definitivamente volveré de compras a tu tienda.
