    Yep, it's a Eurasian store on Allen street
    Kevin K.

    Okay, so here's the cusp of this little Eurasian market - it's here for your convenience, and convenience is a good thing. Take this place. For instance. Where else can you find Belgian stoopwafels, Robinson's barley lemon concentrates, McVities Hob-nobs, Tim-tam-ohs, St Michel galettes (the official cookie of Air France), Malaysian Laksa mixes and Icelandic salted licorice all on the same roof? If you have done your share of globetrotting you would recognize a good chunk of the offerings here. "Oh, wonderful", you may say. Let's buy some stuff up and give due to this mistress of global commerce. Well, here's the issue - remember that class in human geography or anthropology you took back in freshman year of your undergrad to fulfill some core/Gen Ed requirement, and it was an easy survey class that was shallow low hanging fruit for your precious tuition dollars (you were doing it for the easy A)? Well, this store is like that. Yeah, it's got exotic thrills, but you sure pay more from your pockets for the McVities Hobnobs or the Ribena (clue: try Meyers of Keswick if you are forbidden by the terms of house arrest to leave Manhattan, or the Butcher's block in Sunnyside if you want to save more bucks). Just remember that if you really know what you are doing, there are better places to go for most of the items in the store, but that would require local knowledge. Well, in the meantime, here's that easy passing grade for exotic foods. Just don't make it a habit - blissful expensive ignorance is not a great way to live your life. Oh, and P.S: they don't allow photography inside the store. So comparison shopping is OUT.

    I came here with a few friends not to long ago during Chinese new year. It is by far one of the best places to get snacks from. Has a large variety of UK, neatherlands and Irish snacks. Not to mention good old Asian goodies too from Japan, Thailand, Malaysia and even Korea. My fave thing is the crisps (chips) my friend purchased a bag of beer chips. And was really good. I walked away with a small bottle of elder flower lemonade, a box of Cadbury roses chocolate, 2 bags of chips some kit katz and other to yummiest. Well be back soon.

    Marzipan

    I used to go to this place when they were still in the LES at their former location. Always great to find a place that carries food from Europe, and the world, when you feel homesick. However... my last visit was very disappointing!!! It was overpriced, compared to other places in NYC that carry the same items. Still, I purchased a few things.. and to my disappointment my $6 chocolate/marzipan was OLD! Tasted dry and terrible, the chocolate was even discolored which I noticed only after I took a bite. Will not go back there!

    Imported Kit-Kat bars.

    Check the expiration dates. I bought Cadbury chocolate that was beyond stale. The wrapper showed it was over a year expired.

    Sahadi's at Industry City is such a fun place to walk into. I was there during a work retreat and…read morepeople were constantly coming in and out, which gave the whole store this lively, welcoming vibe. I loved that they even have a bar inside. I couldn't drink since I was there for work, but it's such a cool touch and makes the space feel even more inviting. There are so many delicious things to look at. Spices, nuts, prepared foods, pastries, everything. The olives are honestly my favorite. They are so fresh and full of flavor that I had to stop myself from grabbing more. It's the kind of store where you want to explore every corner because something good is always waiting. The staff was friendly and patient even with the steady flow of people. It's just a warm, easy place to be in. If you're walking around Industry City, Sahadi's is definitely worth a stop. It feels like a little food adventure every time.

Lately, we've come for their lunch sandwiches. Most of them are named after streets in BK Heights, which I thought was cute. They're better than the other fast food subs around the neighborhood. I've had the Brooklyn Heights with hot lean roast beef with lettuce and tomatoes on hero and the dumont with hot roast beef with melted cheese and onions on a hero. The employees behind the counter are usually very nice and make sure that you're being helped. As I wait for the sandwiches, I'm usually browsing all the other baked good options ranging from cakes to cookies to cupcakes. I did succumb once and paid over 20 dollars per lb for Christmas cookies. They were alright, but very pricey.

We were determined to find some authentic Brooklyn Italian food because, as good as Phoenix can be, it's just not the same. This restaurant was only about a block and a half from our hotel, making it the perfect choice. We arrived around 5 p.m. on a Saturday, before the dinner rush, so the atmosphere was relaxed and quiet enough to enjoy a conversation and savor the meal. The food was outstanding from start to finish. We started with the ricotta toast topped with walnuts, honey, and a beet sauce. It was creative, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. For my entrée, I ordered the veal tortellini special over Bolognese sauce. Every bite was packed with flavor and easily one of the best dishes I had during our trip. My wife chose the Margherita pizza, which was simple, fresh, and perfectly executed. Sometimes the simplest dishes are the hardest to get right, and they nailed it. What really completed the experience was the service. Our meal arrived quickly, the staff was attentive without hovering, and everyone made us feel welcome. If you're visiting Brooklyn and looking for authentic Italian cuisine, do yourself a favor and add this place to your list. We left full, happy, and wishing we had discovered it earlier in the trip. Five stars without hesitation.

This place is definitely one of my go-tos for cheese if I'm in the area - and they will let you taste/sample cheeses that you're curious about. They also often have samples of one or cheeses, as well as samples of other foods, on a display table near where you enter the store. There's also a good selection of crackers, Jams and preserves, beer,non-alcholic beverages. They sell breads from She Wolf Bakery and they often have cookies from The Good Batch. This is a great place to stop in if you're already in the area but if you're not it's worth making a special trip over just to check it out!

Honestly, they know more about cheese than anyone I've ever met, and thanks to them, I walk out with bags of greatness and the promise of an amazing night ahead.
