KC India Mart

This market is conveniently located at 133^rd and Antioch, just north of the Sam’s Club and across the street from the HyVee. It was clean and well organized and had everything I was looking for, including rose essence and rose sharbat syrup, a wide range of spices, grains and legumes, and a good selection of flours and rice. Maybe not the largest Indian market in the K.C. area, but as long as it has what you’re looking for, who cares? They have some fresh vegetables, ice creams, and a small choice of pre-​packaged halal chicken and goat meat. A good choice if you’re shopping for Indian/​Pakistani goods. They also have some South Indian items.

You know that Indian cookbook that you got for your birthday? The one that you always thumb through but can only make a few dishes out of because you can’t find the right kind of lentils, spices, flour or veggies?
Enter KC India Mart.
To be honest, I really don’t know much about Indian food other than it is delicious and I found traveling through India to be culinary heaven. I probably cook Indian three or four times a month and to date I’ve been ok with substituting things, but from here on out it’s all about KC India Mart.
They have a good selection of dry goods and frozen veggies as well as a very small section of fresh veggies. I was super thrilled to see frozen paneer as I have considered making it myself, but didn’t really want to learn cheesemaking at this point in my life. I love the snack mix section at the front of the store, there are a few mixes that I fell in love with while spending time on cross-​country Indian trains and I was really excited to see those here. They also have some Bollywood movies and household products.
I’m sure Josephine J’s review is more accurate as I haven’t really explored the Indian markets in other parts of the US, but just having this market in the KC metro area is exciting enough for me.
