Indian groceries

I am looking for a store that carries a good selection of Indian groceries. I can't get to Street Road in Bensalem. The Northeast is too far to go by Septa. I am willing to take a bus, the El or subway. I will travel if I have to, but not as far as I mentioned.

    I totally second Lowerrittenhouse's suggestion about International Food close to Penn. They have a GREAT supply of indian ingredients and a nice takeout selection of food, including samosas as well. Some fresh produce like curry leaves, galangal etc plus good selection of frozen foods.

          What are you looking for? THe little groceries on 7th St around Snyder and Jackson have some Indian items -- but mostly Cambodian/SE Asian.

          The Indian grocers in West Philly are easy to get to by the el. Around 43rd & Chestnut I tihnk?

            Yes, I'd recommend International Food and Spices on Walnut at 42nd. Good selection - and amazing samosas if you want a snack.
