Rose Supermarket is a small-sized market offering a variety of 'Mediterranean and Middle Eastern Foods', fresh fruits and vegetables, and much more. It's location, in a small plaza, is handy to a variety of shops, restaurants, and services situated along this growing area of Coquitlam 'behind' the Coquitlam Centre.
We were in this particular plaza recently to do lunch at one of the restaurants, and during the few minutes waiting for it to open, I had an opportunity for a brief walkabout, and was able to drop into Rose's for a quick peak. Liked what I saw -- they had a wide selection of offerings, and I thought all were nicely-displayed.
My visit was short, but while there, I did purchase some fresh, and good-looking eggplants. Before purchasing, I sought some advice from one of the staff -- she was very helpful, and the information received re: varieties, possible cooking methods, and such, was sure appreciated.
I enjoyed my first, but much too brief encounter with the Rose Supermarket -- I'll plan to do better when there the next time. read more
