I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
If you’re a foodie, not only do you enjoy trying all the great restaurants around the Bay State but you probably enjoy perusing some of the state’s biggest and best markets as well. While there are several gourmet food markets around the state, none of them are quite like BAZA Gourmet Food & Spirits in Newton. This massive international gourmet market in Massachusetts may take you all day to explore.
BAZA Gourmet Foods & Spirits may look like a typical large-scale grocery store from the outside, but inside it's like being in a different world.
While you can certainly pick up provisions like produce, meat, and the like, it's the selection that sets it apart from your typical, run-of-the-mill grocery store.
There are numerous grocery items from countries like Poland, Canada, Italy, Austria, Armenia, Mexico, Ukraine, Georgia, Israel...the list goes on and on.
Whether you're looking for imported cheeses, meats, dairy products, packaged goods, or even wine, beer, and liquor from around the world, you'll find it here.
If you've worked up an appetite shopping here at BAZA, head to the hot bar where you'll find a selection of ready-to-eat foods as well as salads. The items here are made with globally-inspired recipes.
The bakery section, known as "BAZA Homemade," offers baked goods inspired by international recipes. Perhaps you'll find something sweet you'll want to take home and have for dessert!
