Convenient store for lacto-vegetarians. Stocks a wide range of products. Previously named Ananda's Health Food Store. House-made veggie options available, tofu, TVP, gluten, veggie rolls, teas, spices, etc. Open Mon-Sun 10:00am-10:00pm.
They have options that I haven't been able to find elsewhere, such as tofu, soy yoghurt, plain soy milk (still has sugar but far less than the flavored kinds), and nutritional yeast. Many many vegan options, though a few things have milk in them I believe? I think perhaps the toothpaste they were selling had some milk or milk derivative in it.
The owners are very helpful and sweet as well, which makes for a lovely atmosphere.
The only cons are that the soy yoghurts (at least the one I got) are salted (not ideal for eating with fruit like I normally do), and the totu is very very salty. So watch out when cooking with it. #Veganuary
This is a very small hole in the wall store that has a selection of TVP, organic products, homemade cheese,tofu, veggie items and a very friendly english speaking woman who helped us out. Will be a regular stop for us while we live here.

I've been going to Govinda's health food store for a while now. Their quality, customer service and prices are great.
Thank you so much for helping me find the products that i need for making vegeterian meals for my family. I highly recommend the place to every one. Maryam
