Inexpensive eats favorite Punjabi Grocery & Deli reopens Friday here at 114 First St. between Avenue A and First Avenue... hours have yet to be determined...


The small, no-frills shop that offers delicious fare such as curried chickpeas and saag and samosas, closed on March 21 as the COVID-19 crisis took hold in NYC. This is a very welcome return.

    At last! I have made no fewer than 10 visits past the Deli in the last 2 months just to check it they’re open. Glad they are returning!

    That just caused me immense happiness. I live on 2nd right off A, I have missed my ritual waiting for the sun to set with a somosa. My people watching with their great food on Houston St... I am so relieved.
