Dry goods

Post by Vitamin c »

My supply of dry goods has dried up :lol:
I used to go to tesco which had a world foods section and you could get big bags of flour , rice , beans and drums of oil and gee.
I need somewhere new a shop not online somewhere that is nationwide.

Any ideas 💡

Do you have an Asian/ Chinese community nearby? Their mini markets are excellent. We live near Leicester,and the choice is massive. The other way ,Loughborough to Nottingham has some excellent Chinese supermarkets.

Tesco used to be my goto. They had lots of different pulses in 1kg bags, but have rationalised. :(
Try Holland and Barratt
, though expect to pay silly money for small bags..

Maybe Waitrose?

I live between two major towns: One with a large Asian population, and Indian Asian supermarkets by the dozen and one with beggar all

You ruled out online, but if you reconsider, I can recommend somoyaskitchen... Now https://hallans.co.uk/#
