Ok, anyone who lives in NDG will tell you there's nothing like Akhavan. I used to live in another part of the city and would go whenever I came to visit my friends who lived down the street from them. Now that my friends have moved back to BC, they miss it terribly, and I can understand why. They have an amazing selection of nuts, I even heard of people driving in from the suburbs for an hour to get their monthly supply, because that's how good, fresh and unexpensive they are ! Also great selection of meat, I actually stopped buying meat at the grocery store except for porc products and cold cuts, which they don't carry for obvious reasons. Their feta cheese selection and olives is amazing, plus all the fresh fruits and veggies, and middle eastern delicacies of course.
