I am from India .. but been moving around to different places.. so far in our wonderful journey of life we never had trouble with Rice .. wherever we go we got our indian rice ( sona masoori ) available. But here cannot find anything .. had to buy sticky rice and am not at all liking its sticky texture would love to hear anyone say any place (preferably indian grocery) where i can get my taste bud happy with sticky free rice

thanks in advance for your replies

Thanks for the info sonabeta .. but all those shops were already inquired by my husband and they dont sell any Sonamasoori rice .. fortunately able to find Basmati there and using it now but am told that Its not good for health for long term use ..

So if you can find any other store anywhere in and around manila please update me

Thanks for your response.

hi bkurala sorry to hear about the hard time you're having with the rice. Have you tried asking the Indian embassy?

I love Indian food but didn't know Basmati rice is bad for the health I guess it's like Ramen when you eat too much all the time lol
