Parrot Coffee has more than coffee. It is really a European/Mediterranean grocery store more than a coffee place. I definitely have more interest in their grocery section as there are a lot of imported items that you cannot find in a regular grocery market. As for the coffee itself, I just don't feel comfortable to see roasted coffee beans just sitting around uncovered for more than 1 month. Maybe I am just a coffee geek. But do come for their grocery!

I just tried this place for the first time a week ago and picked up a few things, One of those things was a spinach pie. Now, obviously we are in Astoria where there are a plethora of options when it comes to spinach pie, but this was AMAZING! So amazing that I had to make a 2nd trip a few days later to get another one :)

My favorite place to get some Serbian goodies! Staff is always super polite and you can always find almost anything that you could need ! Very accessible location as well!

This corner store is one of the most unique and interesting I've ever been to. Their food centers around Eastern European food, and because of this you get exposed to lots of new and delicious foods. They have a wide range of bulk coffees that are good that range from 7-10 dollars a pound, an olive bar, and a nice selection of cheeses in their deli case. The Turkish white feta is delicious and works perfectly on a Greek salad, and is only 3 dollars a pound! They also have prepared spanakopita for 3 dollars a slice, and a good selection of prepared Eastern European foods. Fantastic selection of interesting foods at a good price.

Eastern european market. Everything we got here was awesome! The deli meats (romanian ham, pick salami) and and cheese (kashkaval and feta) were all premium quality. The frozen mititei was surprisingly tasty (we did use a grill). The lady behind the counter was extremely helpful. But maybe its because my girlfriend calls me a gitano.

I'm giving a 5 star review here just on their coffee beans. Yeah, they're that good. It's literally become a staple for me to come in here. Their coffee just has that delicious flavor, smell, and taste. There must be a dozen different kinds. My father lives upstate and he personally requests me to bring him beans from here. He's a real coffee snob too. Did I mention how cheap said coffee is? Done. Deal. I haven't tried a ton of other things in here, though I've slowly began exploring. They have homemade things in the back fridge which I recently discovered, naturally everything is delicious. The candy bar? The one in the back with those foreign chocolate things? I don't know what they are but my god, they are SO GOOD. I have to tell myself no bc I could prolly eat 15 of the chocolate pistachio filling kind. I always have this one chick who rings me up in here. I've seen her moody w me before but other times have seen her act more decent to me. I come in kind of late, I'm going to chalk it up to maybe she's tired. Her moods aren't enough to defer me from coming back though.

This is where I bring out of town guests to pick up coffee, which is delicious, check out olives and cheeses and grab spreads for picnics. It impresses and it's delicious. Food to try: ajvar, spicy red pepper spread from croatia, with pita or a bread they have, also get the homemade stuffed grape leaves (vegetarian). You bring that as appetizers or for a picnic and everyone will love you!
(5)Polly H.
Where can I get cashews, pine nuts, peanuts and dried currants? At Parrot Coffee, an unassuming coffee grocery that also houses some awesome finds. You can grab yourself some Quinoa, organic tapioca flour, and dolmades (Greek grape leaves with rice). On the shelves, I spy gardinera (pickle brined cauliflower and carrots and peppers), peppetizer(hot pepper spread), eggplant spread and other borscht like items. In the freezer section, I saw Cevapi, pierogies, Fillo dough, and various cheeses. There is also a meat section in case you want slices of your favorite charcuterie. It seems like an awesome place for gourmet European tastes!
(4)Kalina M.
Great Bulgarian feta cheese, kashkaval, liutenitsa, Zagorka, sweets, banitsa, sudjuk and a lot more. Worth going. Piece of eastern European food in Astoria!
(5)Amanda L.
I REALLY love this place. I'm pretty biased here because I am Croatian and I grew up eating foods that this place sells. Considering it's so small, it has pretty great variety. I don't know where to begin honestly. They have a great selection of meats, cheeses, sweets, coffee, crackers, and of course olives. I love their coffee selections, especially the beans they have which you can have ground for you there! They really are the most reasonably priced coffees by the pound that I've seen in NY. You know, most coffee shops love to charge $12 and up. I am partial to the Turkish coffee myself. They also carry halva, baklava, rugelach, and other sweets to go with the great coffee you'll find. I love goat cheese. My dad and I used to eat goat cheese and crackers together while he'd tell me stories about Croatia, so that's another bias I have I guess. I bought their goat cheese with herbs and those Wasa crackers - it's wonderful! Just like I had when I was a little girl!! It's so tasty and even my roommates love it. I'm sure their other cheeses are also divine, I just haven't had the chance to try them yet. I haven't sampled from their olive bar, but we did get a refillable bottle of olive oil. This is actually a great deal and the oil is great. Both my boyfriend and I love cooking it and I'm sure we'll go back to refill because it's fairly priced. The one, tiny complaint I have about this store is that's it's so small! I wish it was huge because I would always love more Balkan food!! I highly recommend this place if you're in the mood for Eastern European groceries or even if you just want reasonably priced coffee for home.
(4)Iliana D.
I re visted this place and my opinion has definitely changed. They have a great assortment of bulgarian foods, they have the best lukanka, and the feta cheese I tried was the 4.99 a lb for the superior or whatever bulgarian sheep feta. It is probably the best feta I have ever had in my life. Full of cream, flavor and the perfect amount of salt! Pro- great selection of various meats cheeses and european foods, they definitely had things I havent seen in other stores, and their spices section is superb. two thumbs up.
(4)Soren N.
This place is really excellent. It is a wide assortment of east European food, including some really great homemade hummus. I'm partial to their selection of Ajvar (a roasted red pepper sauce) that I like to combine with pita. They have a good selection of coffee, olives, tea, chocolate and much more. This is a great place to go to find some unique items. The staff is always nice. I highly recommend stopping by here and grabbing some delicious food.
(5)Isabella W.
I was so excited the first time I stepped in here, I squeaked. I found Labneh! FYI: it is a Middle Eastern fresh cheese made with strained yogurt. One way to eat it is to spread it on a toast and drizzle it with honey.... Drool! Parrot Coffee specializes in Balkan and Mediterranean foods. I come here regularly for their coffee beans (not always the freshest though...), cheese, cured meats and random goodies. The spices they sell are of good quality and Parrot Coffee's prices are competitive. If you think the paprika powder you got at a regular supermarket works just fine, that is because you haven't tried the Hungarian ones they sell here. The staff here are always very pleasant and never give me weird looks for lurking around, reading the labels off every ethnic goods they have on the shelves. Or peeking into other people's purchases, because that's what any normal person would do when he/she is in a store that sells products not of his/her ethnicity, right? They are open until 10pm and accepts credit cards, with a minimum of $5.
(5)Steal I.
Great selection of Eastern Mediterranean products in a friendly, neighborly, and well-laid-out little store. Great price on feta, coffee, breads, sweets, jams, etc.
(5)Bes A.
Parrot is a great European spot for those who miss the food from home. Most of there things are imported which makes it really authentic however I wouldn't go here unless I'm in a time crunch, due to that fact that a few blocks away you can go to a much larger and wider selection at "euro market" this is a great fix when you can't go there, parrot doesn't have a meat slicer or fresh home made smoked meats and sausages unlike the other "Euro" food places. But there are packages alternatives. Just not as good. Not the best in the neighborhood.
(3)Antigoni P.
If I could give 0 stars I would. I bought a pound of feta last week, that was bad (it had a very bad smell to it and it was not its usual color. I know feta very well and this was not a fresh piece of feta. When I went back an hour later, the woman refused to take it back.. It clearly looked like a bad block of cheese- it had a bad odor and it had a greenish tin to it. Regardless, she would not take it back. I was in disbelief! I go there every week and have spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars. Anyhow, they just lose a loyal customer. I don't have trust in their products and I am very applaud by their customer service.
(1)Martin K.
The store has a very nice olive bar as well as a wide variety of desserts, cheeses, meats, drinks and traditional foods coming from Eastern Europe. I have to say, out of the 4 or 5 European stores I've went to in NYC, this one is the best stocked, and the pricing is very reasonable on most items. It's a must go for any Balkan food lover, they even sell authentic seasoning there!
(5)T M.
Great selection of coffee! I've only tried one so far, the Hawaii, but it's great. My only complaint is that you can weigh it yourself and there's a 1/2 lb min. Which is no problem, especially with the great prices. However, I'm terrible a guestimating and had to keep asking if I had enough. Great selection. Great prices. Go go go!
(4)Christopher C.
I like the Sunnyside location beter I must say, it has a better coffee selection and it was way closer than this place is to my new place. The pros are the olives are way better and they have more varities, also they have a better mineral water selection which is great in my book. After walking for 30 min in my hood I think this is the only place with fresh roasted coffee, if I'm wrong send me a message and let me know where to go around the 30th ave stop.
(5)Julie B.
Wow, finally made the walk to Ditmars on the first balmy day of spring and am so glad I stumbled upon this gem of a market. Firstly, I was blown away by their selection of ethnic foods, candies, groceries from the Mediterranean and the Balkans. Secondly, their prices are so competitive that I may start to deviate from Trader Joe's for all of my grocery needs. I'll definitely make my way back to try some Hungarian paprika or Macedonian pepper spread. I wonder if they carry Kona coffee...
(5)Teddy T.
I was in town visiting friends and stopped in for a snack. I left with three bags of goodies. This place has an amazing array of fantastic hard-to-find foods. I asked for help and was given an eye-opening tour of the delicacies by one of the employees. The service is just as good as the selection. I loved this place so much I went back before leaving town and picked up another two bags of gourmet items for my family. Can't wait to visit again.
(5)Jess L.
I love this store because of its variety in tons of European goodies, like coffee, rugelach, and olives. The market is clean and laid out well. There's a surprisingly large frozen food section, as well. Whenever I'm in this part of Astoria, I make a point to stop in.
(5)Amber A.
I can't believe how long it took me to notice this place. (Well, technically I "noticed" it a long time ago, but always late and night when it was closed. And then I'd forget to come back in the daytime.) I love--no really, LOVE--cheese, and this place has a huge selection of imports and stuff you don't usually find. Including about a dozen varieties of feta (greek, french, romanian, bulgarian, sheep, cow...you name it!) There's also at LEAST a dozen types of olives, sold in bulk. And the bulk nuts & fruits others have mentioned. They have most of those kinds of things you might be looking for if you've spent any time in the balkans and developed a soft spot for something particular. (For me, that means bulgarian yogurt, among other things.) I've only been here a few times now, but service has always been friendly, as well. And they let you taste the cheeses and things if you're overwhelmed by options and not sure what to buy.
(5)Joseph K.
Very clean!! Just finished making a salad at home with only ingredients from Parrot Coffee. Freshest and softest tofu with lots of assorted olives and cheeses. My little ones don't really like olives, but I was able to them hooked on their homemade olive salad. Extra friendly staff. Plan to go back this week to pick up some of their yogurt.
(5)Cynthia L.
Lots of Balkan goodies. They sell bureks here, have a selection of cevapi in the freezer, those yummy peanut puffs (smoki), nuts, cooking ingredients, cheese, figs, dates, candy, Turkish food....it's endless. They also have newspapers in Turkish, Serbian and Greek. There is also a location in Ridgewood.
(4)Geoff M.
So this place does have some great things but they also do and incredible disservice to some things as well. For instance coffee. They sell incredibly stale coffee. They have all of their coffee out and open getting stale for all to see.
(3)Debora L.
Self-serve bins with fresh nuts, trail mix, dried fruit, and candy sold by the pound? Shelves of European and Middle Eastern grocery staples, fresh olives and dates, Turkish pastries, figs, chickpeas...? (you get the idea) Friendly staff and ethnic staples at reasonable prices? Love It.
(5)Linda H.
Best hummus I have ever put in my mouth. Get the stuff made here, its cheaper than the regular stuff and tastes like heaven. Also try the "lutenitsa", its a super delicious bulgarian red sauce that is kinda sweet and tangy, great for pastas or pizza sauce, anything really. ALSO amazing feta here! If you live in the neighborhood, definitely drop in and try some of the great and unique foods here!!
(5)Hope D.
Yes! Bulgarian food!!! This place (more like a store than a cafe) has the best selection of eastern products I've seen in America. Bulgarian cheeses (kashkaval and sirine), Bulgarian yogurts, banitsa, and tons of other Bulgarian (7 Day) cookies and snacks. The woman working there was also Bulgarian and very nice. Beyond the Bulgarian treats, we got to pick up some of our favorite Turkish coffee, Turkish delight, and Halva! My family and I were really happy to have found this place and the trip up to Astoria was worth it!
(5)Morgan S.
This is not just a grocery store with great selection of everything (olives, coffee, dried fruit) you would ever want. This is a magical place. If I have a shitty day at work, I can go to Parrot on the way home and I instantly feel better about life. It's that kind of place. Highlights: olive bar, sugar free dried mango (so hard to get it without added sugar), and collection of Euro snacks.
(5)Kathy G.
I am hooked on their sunflower seed halavah!!!! The best! Great selection of different cold cuts and sausages. Also grocery items you can't find in the neighborhood.
(5)Susannah S.
I go to Parrot almost weekly for olives, nuts, dried fruit and their awesome variety of cheap spices (hot paprika for $3? Be still my beating heart!). The price is always right, especially if you love pickled things in jars and authentic Bulgarian yogurt ($2/qt) but inspect the bulk stuff closely before digging in. I've spotted more than one varmint amongst the delicious sesame bars and dried kiwis...It doesn't stop me from buying them just the same, but then, I'm not so squeamish. I do think Parrot needs to invest in enough plastic covers for all their open bins (surely it's a health code violation not to?) but it's not enough to drive me away. Homemade burek and sausage in the freezers! Giant slabs of unsliced bacon! Mysterious dried soup mixes which tantalize me with their photos of creamy goodness! I always find something new and delicious to try. Also, I'm not a cheese person, but man they have a ton of it. And they carry an assortment of European/Eastern European chocolates and candies, including Kinder eggs (which are illegal now in the US, I think -- whoops!). And delicious Turkish bread which goes great with their giant bright green and red olives! When it's summertime and I'm headed to the park for a picnic, I always stock up at Parrot.
(4)Klaudia W.
I'm a customer about 6 years, and I have to say, this store is one of the BEST, Cleanest, European kind of grocery in Queens. Employees very complaisant, the products ALWAYS FRESH, and well updated! Prices VERY LOW!!! Just AMAZING!!!!
(5)Kyri K.
I love this place because they have great bulk bins and VAST selection of dried fruit/nuts and also an olive bar! Not to mention a lot of other awesome groceries from that other continent. CHEEEESEEE
(5)Jonathan L.
A haven for useful pantry odds and ends at great prices. Open stock nuts, dried fruit, olives. Best prices ever on imported and domestic goat cheeses (feta for 2.99 a pound!). A lot of opportunity to get just the portion you need here, which is great for singles. Try the dried veggie chips for just 5/lb! Take that, Terra! Very kind and helpful staff. I have never seen this place without a line, and it is tiny! But they pack in a ton of variety. Vanilla beans for $2 each, ask at the counter.
(5)Clover Y.
Okay, so my husband is Bulgarian meaning I have to LOVE this place and I do, I really do, Parrot has all of that crazy Eastern European stuff that you start to crave and decide you can't live without and even though we are in Queens where the exotic is sort of expected and taken for granted I will tell you this thing that you may not have known....kebabche..they have it, at Parrot grocery! Kebabche, pronounced "kuh/bob/chay" is this sort of juicy sausagey thing that Bulgarians love, it has to be eaten with French fries to be truly taken seriously as a meal, and beer must be ingested if you want to get all religious about it. I don't know, it's good, it really is good! I think... They also have all of those Milka goodies like the kinder eggs with the toys in them and the hazelnut chocolate bars in their delightful purple and white wrappers. Cheese, meat, salam-che, chubritza, everything. Just like in Bulgaria, or Turkey perhaps. Sometimes I think i want to move to Ditmars just to be close to PCM, other times I'm not so sure.
(4)Lauren E.
This place is unique in an area of unique markets. Great selection of assorted European foods, including fresh feta and an olive bar, and even some Jewish baked goods (packaged, but that's more than most places around here have). The dodonis feta is excellent; I put it in my Greek salad whenever I make it. The store itself is clean, well-lit, and the service friendly.
(5)Stefani C.
I am a sucker for stores with bins where you can bag up your own foods and pay by the pound. Dried figs, dried mango's, huge golden raisins, vegetables, peanuts, soybeans, cashews, jordan almonds, ambrosia mix... the list goes on and on.... Great European candies, an olive bar, yogurts, coffee's, fishy things and the freshest DATES ever~ And let's not forget the cutie-pa-tootie who works there. The Greek grocery-store flirt. He gets to me every time~ I go to the Greek grocery to get dates. ;)
(5)Maria V.
Pretty much a staple ethnic market for all goodies from the near-East. Their name doesn't lie, they have a lot of Middle Eastern coffee varieties for those of us who like our caffeine potent and mud-like! But they also nicely fill the niche of ethnic grocer with lots of imports and dried goods from Greece, Turkey, and the Balkans. My mother and I found some nice housewares here as well (they carry several different sized brikia/ibriks). Really you can't go wrong. They're right around the corner from a lot of major Greek restaurants and cafes, so you can just pop right in between meals. They're new -- I was looking for what I'm sure was its predecessor when I popped in here, but they have a good selection, a bit more diverse than what was there before (less Greek-centric, which is sad for me but nicer for everyone else, I guess).
(4)Julie S.
My husband is Bulgarian and I have learned to adore Bulgarian food. My Mother-in-law has taught me to cook and I go to Parrot for all my spices, banitza, and especially the Lukanka. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating. Mnogo Blagodarq!

Where can I get cashews, pine nuts, peanuts and dried currants? At Parrot Coffee, an unassuming coffee grocery that also houses some awesome finds. You can grab yourself some Quinoa, organic tapioca flour, and dolmades (Greek grape leaves with rice). On the shelves, I spy gardinera (pickle brined cauliflower and carrots and peppers), peppetizer(hot pepper spread), eggplant spread and other borscht like items. In the freezer section, I saw Cevapi, pierogies, Fillo dough, and various cheeses. There is also a meat section in case you want slices of your favorite charcuterie. It seems like an awesome place for gourmet European tastes!
(4)Kalina M.
Great Bulgarian feta cheese, kashkaval, liutenitsa, Zagorka, sweets, banitsa, sudjuk and a lot more. Worth going. Piece of eastern European food in Astoria!

After walking for 30 min in my hood I think this is the only place with fresh roasted coffee, if I'm wrong send me a message and let me know where to go around the 30th ave stop.

Wow, finally made the walk to Ditmars on the first balmy day of spring and am so glad I stumbled upon this gem of a market. Firstly, I was blown away by their selection of ethnic foods, candies, groceries from the Mediterranean and the Balkans. Secondly, their prices are so competitive that I may start to deviate from Trader Joe's for all of my grocery needs. I'll definitely make my way back to try some Hungarian paprika or Macedonian pepper spread. I wonder if they carry Kona coffee...

I was in town visiting friends and stopped in for a snack. I left with three bags of goodies. This place has an amazing array of fantastic hard-to-find foods. I asked for help and was given an eye-opening tour of the delicacies by one of the employees. The service is just as good as the selection. I loved this place so much I went back before leaving town and picked up another two bags of gourmet items for my family. Can't wait to visit again.

I love this store because of its variety in tons of European goodies, like coffee, rugelach, and olives. The market is clean and laid out well. There's a surprisingly large frozen food section, as well. Whenever I'm in this part of Astoria, I make a point to stop in.

I can't believe how long it took me to notice this place. (Well, technically I "noticed" it a long time ago, but always late and night when it was closed. And then I'd forget to come back in the daytime.) I love--no really, LOVE--cheese, and this place has a huge selection of imports and stuff you don't usually find. Including about a dozen varieties of feta (greek, french, romanian, bulgarian, sheep, cow...you name it!) There's also at LEAST a dozen types of olives, sold in bulk. And the bulk nuts & fruits others have mentioned. They have most of those kinds of things you might be looking for if you've spent any time in the balkans and developed a soft spot for something particular. (For me, that means bulgarian yogurt, among other things.) I've only been here a few times now, but service has always been friendly, as well. And they let you taste the cheeses and things if you're overwhelmed by options and not sure what to buy.

Very clean!! Just finished making a salad at home with only ingredients from Parrot Coffee. Freshest and softest tofu with lots of assorted olives and cheeses. My little ones don't really like olives, but I was able to them hooked on their homemade olive salad. Extra friendly staff. Plan to go back this week to pick up some of their yogurt.

Lots of Balkan goodies. They sell bureks here, have a selection of cevapi in the freezer, those yummy peanut puffs (smoki), nuts, cooking ingredients, cheese, figs, dates, candy, Turkish food....it's endless. They also have newspapers in Turkish, Serbian and Greek. There is also a location in Ridgewood.

So this place does have some great things but they also do and incredible disservice to some things as well. For instance coffee. They sell incredibly stale coffee. They have all of their coffee out and open getting stale for all to see.

Self-serve bins with fresh nuts, trail mix, dried fruit, and candy sold by the pound? Shelves of European and Middle Eastern grocery staples, fresh olives and dates, Turkish pastries, figs, chickpeas...? (you get the idea) Friendly staff and ethnic staples at reasonable prices? Love It.

Best hummus I have ever put in my mouth. Get the stuff made here, its cheaper than the regular stuff and tastes like heaven. Also try the "lutenitsa", its a super delicious bulgarian red sauce that is kinda sweet and tangy, great for pastas or pizza sauce, anything really. ALSO amazing feta here! If you live in the neighborhood, definitely drop in and try some of the great and unique foods here!!

Yes! Bulgarian food!!! This place (more like a store than a cafe) has the best selection of eastern products I've seen in America. Bulgarian cheeses (kashkaval and sirine), Bulgarian yogurts, banitsa, and tons of other Bulgarian (7 Day) cookies and snacks. The woman working there was also Bulgarian and very nice. Beyond the Bulgarian treats, we got to pick up some of our favorite Turkish coffee, Turkish delight, and Halva! My family and I were really happy to have found this place and the trip up to Astoria was worth it!

This is not just a grocery store with great selection of everything (olives, coffee, dried fruit) you would ever want. This is a magical place. If I have a shitty day at work, I can go to Parrot on the way home and I instantly feel better about life. It's that kind of place. Highlights: olive bar, sugar free dried mango (so hard to get it without added sugar), and collection of Euro snacks.

I am hooked on their sunflower seed halavah!!!! The best! Great selection of different cold cuts and sausages. Also grocery items you can't find in the neighborhood.

This place is unique in an area of unique markets. Great selection of assorted European foods, including fresh feta and an olive bar, and even some Jewish baked goods (packaged, but that's more than most places around here have). The dodonis feta is excellent; I put it in my Greek salad whenever I make it. The store itself is clean, well-lit, and the service friendly.

I go to Parrot almost weekly for olives, nuts, dried fruit and their awesome variety of cheap spices (hot paprika for $3? Be still my beating heart!). The price is always right, especially if you love pickled things in jars and authentic Bulgarian yogurt ($2/qt) but inspect the bulk stuff closely before digging in. I've spotted more than one varmint amongst the delicious sesame bars and dried kiwis...It doesn't stop me from buying them just the same, but then, I'm not so squeamish. I do think Parrot needs to invest in enough plastic covers for all their open bins (surely it's a health code violation not to?) but it's not enough to drive me away. Homemade burek and sausage in the freezers! Giant slabs of unsliced bacon! Mysterious dried soup mixes which tantalize me with their photos of creamy goodness! I always find something new and delicious to try. Also, I'm not a cheese person, but man they have a ton of it. And they carry an assortment of European/Eastern European chocolates and candies, including Kinder eggs (which are illegal now in the US, I think -- whoops!). And delicious Turkish bread which goes great with their giant bright green and red olives! When it's summertime and I'm headed to the park for a picnic, I always stock up at Parrot.

I'm a customer about 6 years, and I have to say, this store is one of the BEST, Cleanest, European kind of grocery in Queens. Employees very complaisant, the products ALWAYS FRESH, and well updated! Prices VERY LOW!!! Just AMAZING!!!!
(5)Kyri K.
I love this place because they have great bulk bins and VAST selection of dried fruit/nuts and also an olive bar! Not to mention a lot of other awesome groceries from that other continent. CHEEEESEEE
(5)Jonathan L.
A haven for useful pantry odds and ends at great prices. Open stock nuts, dried fruit, olives. Best prices ever on imported and domestic goat cheeses (feta for 2.99 a pound!). A lot of opportunity to get just the portion you need here, which is great for singles. Try the dried veggie chips for just 5/lb! Take that, Terra! Very kind and helpful staff. I have never seen this place without a line, and it is tiny! But they pack in a ton of variety. Vanilla beans for $2 each, ask at the counter.

Okay, so my husband is Bulgarian meaning I have to LOVE this place and I do, I really do, Parrot has all of that crazy Eastern European stuff that you start to crave and decide you can't live without and even though we are in Queens where the exotic is sort of expected and taken for granted I will tell you this thing that you may not have known....kebabche..they have it, at Parrot grocery! Kebabche, pronounced "kuh/bob/chay" is this sort of juicy sausagey thing that Bulgarians love, it has to be eaten with French fries to be truly taken seriously as a meal, and beer must be ingested if you want to get all religious about it. I don't know, it's good, it really is good! I think... They also have all of those Milka goodies like the kinder eggs with the toys in them and the hazelnut chocolate bars in their delightful purple and white wrappers. Cheese, meat, salam-che, chubritza, everything. Just like in Bulgaria, or Turkey perhaps. Sometimes I think i want to move to Ditmars just to be close to PCM, other times I'm not so sure.

I am a sucker for stores with bins where you can bag up your own foods and pay by the pound. Dried figs, dried mango's, huge golden raisins, vegetables, peanuts, soybeans, cashews, jordan almonds, ambrosia mix... the list goes on and on.... Great European candies, an olive bar, yogurts, coffee's, fishy things and the freshest DATES ever~ And let's not forget the cutie-pa-tootie who works there. The Greek grocery-store flirt. He gets to me every time~ I go to the Greek grocery to get dates. ;)

Pretty much a staple ethnic market for all goodies from the near-East. Their name doesn't lie, they have a lot of Middle Eastern coffee varieties for those of us who like our caffeine potent and mud-like! But they also nicely fill the niche of ethnic grocer with lots of imports and dried goods from Greece, Turkey, and the Balkans. My mother and I found some nice housewares here as well (they carry several different sized brikia/ibriks). Really you can't go wrong. They're right around the corner from a lot of major Greek restaurants and cafes, so you can just pop right in between meals. They're new -- I was looking for what I'm sure was its predecessor when I popped in here, but they have a good selection, a bit more diverse than what was there before (less Greek-centric, which is sad for me but nicer for everyone else, I guess).
