Proper Asian supermarket - narrow isles, shelves stacked with all sorts of food stuffs, with imported products that are good value so you know you are getting the best, and great service. There's even a fish counter. Just the neighborhood around it brings it down - some sketchy lads, not a lot of places to park, and no accessible entrance.

I normally like shopping here. The staff are friendly and there's a good stock of Indian and some South East Asian staples. However, a recent visit was pretty terrible.There were six or seven people in the shop and nobody was even attempting to wear a mask nor seemed the slightest bit bothered about themselves or anybody else's risk. I was also ignored for some time while some geezer fannied about trying to bargain £1 per kilo off some lamb while coughing and spluttering everywhere. It was a shambles to be honest.

East West cash and carry is an Asian convenience store / mini supermarket / cash and carry There are only a handful of these specialist stores in the town and this is the best one. Never buy spices, Indian herbs or any Indian cooking ingredients from a supermarket as you pay way over the odds and for such small quantities. Practically all of the customers who shop at East West are Bangladeshi or Indian and they also supply a number of restaurants and takeaways. They get a delivery of fresh Asian vegetables every week (normally on Monday) and their in-shop butcher looks after the Halal meat side of things. It's great to try all of these Asian vegetables as they are cheap and if you don't know what to do with them the shop owner are happy to help or just have a look on the net. They have about 10 large chest freezers what are full of Asian fish and other special foods. I buy my mutton from here as these Asian supermarkets are practically the only places that sell mutton. Mutton is great for curry or any slow cooked meal and it is cheaper than lamb. If you have not shopped in one of these places before then it may be a new experience at first as sometimes when I shop here I have to step over the odd guy who has just unrolled his mat out for one of their many prays they do each day. Also don't be put of by the untidiness as this is how they all are, In general, shop here for all of your ingredients, don't be afraid to ask if you are unsure and give the supermarkets a miss.
