“We have visited purple rice for years and absolutely love Alex. She's amazing. We appreciate the variety and service she provides. We always buy her seaweed salad, kimchi, and noodle salad if any are still available. This last visit she and my husband talked shop about growing ginger and she helped him pick out a good root. Previously I have asked her about bamboo and advice on growing it. She candidly admitted that this isn't where she shines, but offered what she could. The stacking dumpling steamer we bought from her 6 years ago is still just as functional as the day we bought it, making it a great investment. We use it for soa poa as well as dumplings. Alex is amazing, funny, down to earth, and kind. Potsdam is a better place for having her and her shop there. If you don't like her service, you can always ring the bell by the front door.”
“Small grocery store with decent selection of craft beer. Beer prices are about the same as larger grocery stores, and often cheaper. Meat is always priced well and they take custom orders. If you want a half cow to stock your freezer, they can do it.”

“The store is a gem. I love the Heidelberg Bread and the Montreal Bagels. Yesterday I bought a jar of Brooklyn Delhi Cashew Butter Masala Simmer Sauce, and heated it with paneer, coconut milk, spinach, kale, and I served it over basmati rice. A truly warming meal.”
“This store carries SO MUCH stuff we always need and a lot of 1$ deals that are cheaper than Dollar Tree! It's like a modern version of the old General Store.”
“The staff here is SO friendly and personable. Store is very clean and easy to find what's needed. Needs a billboard so people don't miss it passing by! Would be nice to see them repair and expand the parking lot.”
“I like the people that work there, customer service is great but the aisles are to narrow, making them messy when stocking occurs. Not safe for customers nor emplyees”
