I’ve been a customer at Spiceland for years and always pick up a bargain. The store offers a wide range of canned goods and condiments, but the real savings are in their bags of spices and herbs.
Situated beside Shabnam Foods on South Richmond street, Dublin 1, Spiceland trades in Indian, African and Asian foods, but the main focus is on the Middle East. This is one of the busiest and most established shops of it’s kind in Dublin, so I wasn’t surprised when told that business is booming, and they are moving to a bigger premises next door.
Large freezers full of frozen fish, a halal butchers, various Middle Eastern desserts and a huge range of fruits, vegetables and nuts are also on offer here. This is a one-stop shop for a variety of ethnic foods but, should they not stock it, you can always go next door to Shabnam.
Stored in the correct conditions, herbs and spices can retain their potency for considerable time; as long as four years for whole spices, two years for ground spices, and one to three years for some leafy herbs. This is the place to stock up.
