Re: anywhere to get middle eastern/turkish food?

Is there any place that's not a restaurant but like a middle eastern grocery store?

I get the image of an open air market, camels and car bombs when I see "middle eastern grocery store".

Had Turkish food once, at this classy dive about 100km North of the Republic of Georgia/Turkey border at Batumi.

Tasted like shit.

They're more strange cosmetics (like egg shampoo), candies and chewing gums, spices, rice, pistachios, and snacks - awesome snacks. Also, this carbonated yogurt drink that Americans all hate. People not familiar with the concept are really missing out.

Actually, I just called the VAB Azar's. They have some stuff, but still no gaz. Are there no Persians in this area?
