"A fixture of Atlantic Ave since 1948, the three-generation strong Sahadis Grocery is a Brooklyn tradition. It truly has a bit of everything. Also candy. So much candy. With an old world feel and excellent service, Sahadis is a wholesaler and a distributor as well as a retailer. This means that the store can sell bulk and exotic items at prices far more moderate than most. Which makes it a pretty popular location no matter what burrough you’re hailing from. And people come from all over. Good thing there’s an old fashioned ticket machine and the owner, Charlie Sahadis, walking around to chat with you to pass the time in no time." - This Also
"Industry City is lucky to have Sahadi’s. In fact, we’re all lucky to have Sahadi’s. So go ahead and find the nearest CVS, buy a few nice cards, and send them to Sahadi’s. Once you’re done, stop by this Middle Eastern grocery store for some fresh hummus, a few slices of halvah, or a wrap filled with grilled halloumi. This place makes most grocery stores look lazy, and it even has a small wine bar where you can take a break if you get tired shopping." - bryan kim
"The original Sahadi’s location on Atlantic Avenue has been a long-standing Brooklyn institution for decades. In 2019, the team opened a second spot at Industry City which made us instantly jealous of everyone we know who lives in Sunset Park. But the truth is, no matter where you live, we’re all lucky to have Sahadi’s. So go ahead and find the nearest CVS, buy a few nice cards, and send them to Sahadi’s. Once you’re done, stop by this Middle Eastern grocery store for some fresh hummus, a few slices of halvah, or a wrap filled with grilled halloumi. The newer location is about the size of a discount warehouse upstate, and it even has a small wine bar where you can take a break if you get tired shopping." - hannah albertine, nikko duren
"“121 year old, 3rd generation family owned Middle Eastern grocery. Recently opened a 2nd location with a sit down restaurant. The OG store has more than 200 bins of ancient grains, spices, roasted nuts, dried fruits, the most incredible olives, rare cheese, hummus and kibbeh. Coming soon: cocktail program with spices from Lebanon!” - @elanazajdman" - PRINT_COLLECTIVE
"Since it was late and I was a little hungry, it’s another sourdough pancake. This time with some homemade beet-and-cabbage sauerkraut, dipped in this hot German mustard from a tube that I recently found at Sahadi’s and have been squeezing on stuff with abandon. I love sauerkraut and make giant jars of it so there’s always some on hand. I’ve always adored spicy mustard, too."
