Awesome food, but a tad spicy.
The local grocery store sells freshly ground flour, any type of lentil you can think of and veggie wash (soap for fruit and veggies) so that we can eat any fresh produce as long as we wash it first. Bit tiresome but much better than only eating cooked veggies for the next 3 months.
The stores here are 1/4 the size of ours and look a bit down at the heel but the food is very good quality and they will deliver anything for free. Pali Market (street with tiny stores and open air fruit and veggie handlers) has a huge variety of shops including an imported cheese store, liquor store, paper ware and drug store.
Hawkers come to our apartment building daily with offers of veggies, eggs, ironing, newspapers….
