    I can always find some deliciousness from International Food Pak where the service is always good…read moreand the ambiance is great. IFP has some of the best healthiest snacks. I love potato chips and have to eat them sparingly. I always look at the potato chips options. During my last visit they had Great Lakes "skin on" potato chips. So delicious. I have so many favorites in IFP.

    This is great and unique shop. I do not know of any local stores that offer what they offer so far…read more It is located in the heart of Mobile. Near the University of South Alabama. Actually it down the street from the main campus. It offers a wonderful location. It has a large parking lot. Only challenge is making a left hand turn depending on traffic since the main road is two lanes. This store offers many different options for those hard to access foods, fresh spices, and drinks. As you walk in. They are an international market but more focus on Middle East cuisine. Not just your Europe and India ingredients. Besides the regular stuff you can buy at a small local market. You are overwhelmed with the wonderful abundance and aromatic of fresh made spices. Actually, as far I know, know where I have been locally that offers what they offer. If so, please let me know. I was able to find hard and unique ingredients not found anywhere else. As far as I know. They also an abundance of great wine selection. If you cannot find the wine of your choice. Give them a look. They might offer what you are looking for. I especially love this space since they have a small kitchen that can make fresh middle eastern dishes. I was hungry, so I grabbed the original (lamb ) gyro and a bottled water. It was delicious. Well worth it! (Gyro is meat cooked on a vertical rotisserie, then sliced and served wrapped or stuffed in pita bread, along with other ingredients such as tomato, onion, fried potatoes, and tzatziki. In Greece, it is normally made with pork or sometimes with chicken, whilst ground beef and lamb are also used in other countries.) They off free Wi-Fi. I believe it is password protected? They offer a few outside seating as well as small indoor spaces. But if not, you can always get it to go. Well worth it if you are in the area. Especially go here if you need that specific ingredient that you just cannot find. If you are hungry and want something delicious. Feel free to stop by and grab a bite. Definitely a must if you need that special ingredient for your delicious meal. If you are in the area and want a quick bite. Stop in!

    OMG!!! LOVE.THIS.MARKET!!!…read more Full Disclosure: Hubby & I LOVE this other little Mediterranean & Turkish market in Dallas, Texas, near DFW airport where hubby used to work. When we go back home to Texas we usually stop by there bc it's the only place I have ever found in Texas, that has our favorite Egyptian rice "Egypt's Best Rice" - Just FYI, That market is listed with my Review on Yelp, it's called: "Rozana Mediterranean & Turkish Market 920 S Belt Line Road coppell, TX 75019 Tue-Sat: 11:00 AM - 09:00 PM | Sun: 11:00 AM - 7:00 PM (972) 702-7374" Anyhoo, they used to have a fabulous organic Mediterranean/Turkish restaurant we ordered from at his office all the time that we LOVED, but sadly it closed during the plandemic small business economic shutdown, but the market there is still open. Anyhoo, by some rare cosmic miracle, few months ago, this same kind of awesome little Mediterranean market opened right here in Pirate'cola, near our Florida home that NOW also carries that same favorite brand of rice we love so much "Egypt's Best Rice" !!! WOOHOO!!! I have been shopping here since day one. I met the owner "Tarak" the day it opened, he was very cool & even helped me load a 50 pound bag of rice into my Range Rover. He said to me as I was leaving; "I love your Range Rover, very nice car" he was very sweet. I thanked him & even helped him load YELP onto his phone bc he didn't know what it was. He told me then, they might open a Mediterranean restaurant here as well! Yay!!! Can't wait!!! Now, every time we go into the store, he or his son ask us if there is anything we are looking for that we couldn't find or need. Awesome customer service! They have finally finished stocking up & it now has the best Mediterranean spices, speciality frozen fish, rice & grains in Pirate'cola. Plus, they carry our fave Mediterranean RICE "Egypt's Best Rice!!! We are stoked! STOKED I tell ya. Over the MOON. So happy. haha. :)) I also love that he carries in BULK the little red/green chilies that I use almost every day. They have the best prices in Pirate'cola on the little chilies. Moi also LOVES that I can find "Farine de pois chiche" here. AKA "Besan" or chickpea flour/Garbanzo flour. He even carry's fine ground & the coarse ground. WOZA! So very happy. OuiOui. Hubby & I both, our Grandfathers/Fathers, were in the Military, we have lived, worked & traveled all over the world. We both share a love for certain foods/products from places we have enjoyed that are dear to our hearts that are hard to come by. We are so grateful for this fabulous little local Market that carries lovely Asian, Indian/halal, vegan, Mediterranean & Caribbean/islander foods etc., as you can make Indian, Indo-Pacific, French, Thai, Chinese, European, African, American creole cuisine, tons of different cuisines, with ALL the fabulous extremely wide variations of ingredients this NEW Asian Grocery & halal Market carries. Word to your mother, "NEW Asian Grocery & halal" market's concept is the Mother load of variety & spices from all over the world. Just as we are all from the same worldly mother, Mother Earth. Support your Mother. Highest Recommendations.

    Ridiculously great deals on spices, some in bulk. Great selection of produce for both mid eastern…read moreand eastern Asian food, with the best deal in town on fresh Thai chilies. Nice selection of sauces. Super friendly and helpful every time. Feels like a fancy souk market.
