I found myself eating dolmades from a can on a boat in British Columbia when I thought to myself you know what I miss?! Akhavan's !!
Akhavan's have such a great array of hard to find products from around the world. I believe it's Iranian owned and has tons of different ethnic foods, great deals on fresh meat and the most amazing fresh Persian baked goods. I also loved the nut section and the pre made tapas, not to mention the cheese selection. What a great spot to stock up on party treats - oh and I'd love to be able to claim their Mediterranean Chicken as my own, it's the best I've tried.
The staff is great, super helpful and delightfully unique. Always quick to help you in finding anything obscure, they really seem to know their store. You'll have some fun while shopping and be pleasantly surprised at how much you can get for your buck!
