I bought once kerala chicken spice in this shop. It's the best spice I've ever tasted. Has anyone an email address or phone number of the owner? I want to buy it again.
We entered into a spice shop called the ‘All Spices Market’ which was housed in an old dilapidated building. We climbed up a narrow and steep staircase to the first floor where the shop was located. They had a wide array of spices including many qualities of whole black and white peppers, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, dried red chillies, nutmeg, cardamom, cloves, bay-leaf, star anise, herbs, tea and coffee powders and different dry fruits, as well as ready to eat fried banana and tapioca chips. While we were looking at our shopping list the lady attendants kept giving us samples of various herbal teas and coffee to taste. In a sense they were distracting our attention from the spices and by accepting their samples they were making us obligated to buy something. Ultimately we did buy many items which were not even on our list. My suggestion if you visit the spice market is to go with a shopping list and a rough idea of it’s price, so that you know beforehand whether you are getting your value for money or are being conned into buying.
This is located in Mattanchery-A whole sale market in Kochi. All Spices-Original items are sold at whole sale price. The lane is very narrow no place for parking car
Markets like these are all around kochi. My suggestion is to roam around and find the cheapest spice seller and beware of scamsters who try and give you the wrong kind of spices.
Proper spice Market with authentic Kerala spices. It has got a big ginger warehouse here which carries export trades. The spices for sale are kinda costly but authentic! Do try the Herbal Coffee which they give off as a sample. Buying it won't be a wrong choice! They've got various home made ready mixes like Fish Curry masalas, and all.
The " All Spice market" is one of the finest spice shops in spice market. It is a 200-250 meters from the Jew Lane where most of the spices outlets are there. This shop is managed by women's co-operative group. They are very polite. They will offer you like ginger tea with honey, green tea once you enter the shop. It is a old shop.
Totally cool experience. The sheer sense of history is overwhelming. The broken down spice warehouses are a great place to understand and buy spices. Incredibly interesting bylanes if you are a history and culture fan.
