    A fantastic Indian grocery store that's filled to the max with spices, rice, dried beans, lentils, packaged foods (e.g. pickles, pre-packaged mixes, frozen roti or naan, etc), as well as kitchen goods.  At the front counter, they'll have a display full of Indian sweets like burfi, peda, ladoo, etc.  And they often had different types of snacks like samosas (they have 2 different kinds, ones that are 2 for $1 and ones that are 3 for $1, the ones that are 2 for $1 are the finest samosas I've ever had - don't eat them there heated in microwave, take them home and heat them in the oven or toaster oven, they'll taste much better).  On Fridays, they'll also have fresh vegetables and herbs near the front, such as drumstick, bottle gourd, karela, mint leaves, cilantro, etc in addition to these amazing small green chili peppers (they pack some good heat).  The place is kind of disorganized inside but if you're looking for something related to Indian or Pakistani food, they'll probably have it.  They also have a second location on 3-1775 ernest ave.  That one is better organized inside but not as expansive but still a very good option for those who live on that side of the city.

    Great selection of classic West Indian spices and supplies. Would have given it a much higher rating, but unfortunately the service sucked. When I asked where certain products where, saying them with a Canadian accent, they barely acknowledged me. Will take my business elsewhere to find staple ingredients for my West Indian dishes.
