Watch out for some suspicious pricing issues. I saw the 2-pk Datu Puti soy sauce and vinegar in one spot with a shelf label for $6.99 and another for $6.49. Then I checked the shelf and decided on the individual bottles. Well the soy sauce was listed as $2.99, but rang up as $3.99.

While a cashier was removing the divider and taking my stuff to calculate with another man, the man informed the staff and the staff cut back and said to me, "Why don't you put it?" I said, "Why did you take it out? That's your job. Why didn't you look?" And the previous man told the staff that he put it down. This staff is rude, not only does he speak badly and loudly to customers, but it's not the customers' fault. It's your job. You still don't do your job well. You should find staff or train staff to work with manners. I have attached the receipt for verification. This employee should be trained.

Compared to the Indian stores in the bayarea this place was huge, the restaurant at the back was huge as well and can easily seat upto 50 people. They have a large menu selection covering snacks, breakfast, lunch and dinner. This is more of a bakery cum restaurant. We sampled some snacks and cakes before placing a bulk order for an event later that day. *Jelebi was decent with a hint of tartness. *The rasmalai cake was shockingly sweet in my opinion. I asked them to reduce sugar by 50% in my cake order for later that day and they complied with my request. End result- all the guests loved the cake. *onion samosas- surprisingly decent and pretty close to the ones we get in India. *stuffed mirchi- these were great as well *potato samosas- these were piping hot so we got a few of these for the party. They were not too large and tasted fresh.

I don't get out to the Sauson International Grocery as often as I used to, but I still make the…read moretrip 1-2 times a month for mainly one thing: some of the freshest and tastiest bread in all of the DMV. Every culture has their own interpretation of taking the basic ingredients of flour, yeast, salt and water and transforming it via various baking methods into their version of "bread." There is a long history of using circular oval shaped ovens in Asia and the Middle East as a way of both conserving space and to efficiently cook foods with even heat distribution and small footprints in otherwise cramped kitchens. In India these ovens are called tandoors while in Japan they are referenced as kamados. Sauson International Grocery has been in operation since 2011, and the owner, who everyone knows as "Mr. Rashid," is of Persian descent having emigrated from Iran. He is always super friendly and willing to answer questions I may have about the wide variety of Middle Eastern spices and foods this place stocks. Don't be surprised if you strike up a conversation with him, and he offers you a cup of wonderfully spiced tea and a cookie or pastry from the delectable dessert case. As some of the reviews have noted, parking is tricky. There is a small covered garage under the building. But you may have to park at the nearby church or on the street and then walk over to the store. This place is well known for their bread, which is being made throughout the day. I came a bit later today, so they had just finished making a few batches. But it's not uncommon to witness skilled bakers kneading and rolling, and then slapping the dough onto the circular metallic oven for a few minutes, before piping hot fresh bread emerges. The bread is amazing. It is pliable, without being overly chewy. It is slightly salty, with a great smoky almost charred flavor. I've had it cut into pieces and then dipped with hummus or rolled into gyros or used to sandwich kabob meat. And believe it or not, it's even pretty good as a PB&J. Everyone, and I mean everyone, I've introduced this product to usually asks: (1). What type of bread is this? and (2). Where can I buy it? Note: As of this review, the current price is $8.05 for FOUR large round pieces of bread. Apart from the bread, there is also a small butcher shop in the back, and a kitchen where hot foods like kabob platters are made. There is also a small seating area in front of the store, where folks can sip tea and relax while enjoying sweets from the display case. Sauson is a really cool place and while I usually go with the intention of only buying bread, it's not uncommon for me to walk out with a few bags of unique Middle Eastern groceries.

We didn't buy any because we weren't planning to cook some up any time soon. The second time, we came better prepared. I had a list of ingredients for making a bok choy recipe that we liked. Yes, we did buy the baby bok choy. Also, we found snow peas and shiitake mushrooms. We were quite impressed with the produce section as all their fruits and veggies were fresh and the store was very clean. Even though they weren't part of the recipe, we picked up more manzano bananas. Browsing the aisles, I also found some dried tree ear. One thing we saw that we liked was that they had a couple of aisles dedicated to Hispanic foods with one aisle dedicated to Peruvian foods. We were pleased to see that they had Inca Kola and bought some. For those who cook Indian foods, there is an aisle dedicated to those foods. The cashiers we dealt with were friendly. When the cashier we dealt with on our most recent visit saw that we were buying the Inca Kola and manzano bananas, she asked me in Spanish if I needed a shopping bag. I said, in English, "Yes please" which surprised and amused her. I never did get fully fluent in Spanish thus the reason I answered in English. We both agree that we would come back to shop here when we plan to do Asian cooking. Just note that parking can be tight as it is a popular place. In fact, when we entered the parking lot last visit, 6 cars decided to leave at the same time...yikes!
