The lunch Thali Special (11-15h) is excellent, and under $10 for naan, rice, tandoori chicken, and two small curries! After lunch the price goes up a tiny bit but still definitely worth it :) Also, it's bring your own alcohol so don't hesitate to stop at the dep across the street and pick up a few beers or a bottle of wine before you go in!

It's been around since the 70's, the ceiling is lovely, and the treats are delightful.

My favourite grocery store in the city, everything is en vrac, so bring your own containers! Mostly organic ingredients, all fair trade and there's even an aquaponic system in the window! :D

Everything Else

My favourite market in the city, it's filled with beautiful fresh produce, flowers, and friendly vendors, as well as a few little local shops and restaurants. This is definitely a must-visit for the summertime.
