India Mart

I wanted to throw this in here because I have been desperate to get Indian food for a while now.  There is a market on the back side of the same strip mall as India Orchard, which, of course, is affiliated with said restaurant.  They have lots of rice, mostly basmati, and tons of beans and lentils.  They have those "instant" packets of Indian food that are either already mixed or you just add water to them.  They have a few teas like PG Tips and Lipton Yellow Label Tea. 

[Side Note:  If you travel in the Middle East, a lot of the tea is Lipton Yellow Label, which should not be confused with the crap that Lipton and other companies sell in America.  Most real tea companies seem to sell the good stuff elsewhere and the crap in the US, because most Americans don't know the difference.  So I highly recommend trying the Yellow Label.]

There's a frozen section with fish and samosas, and a fresh vegetables section.  They have a small variety of McVitie's biscuits, and they even have Bounty bars!  (Now if they'll only get Lion bars!)  There's also some sodas from India.

Their website isn't up yet, but it's myindia-mart.com.  So shop there so that they'll stay in business!
