कोस्मो



Our local Indo-Pak-Middle Eastern Grocery really is "the cosmos." It also has a section of Eastern European foods, because it was established by people who came from that part of the world. It has been in business for decades and serves the most diverse clientele of any such grocery that I have seen in our area. It is also the place for buying DVDs of recent and older Bollywood movies. These are legal discs and sell for a mere $2-3 each. No one bothers to "rent" anymore. There are many other shelves of titles other than the ones shown in the photo, and films are also available in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, etc. Evidently, the NRI market is that big, that a profit is made even when the disks are sold so cheaply. Amazing! And lucky me.
