Groceries

Bawa groceries banyak-banyak kadang susah kalau gak punya kendaraan sendiri, tapi ada opsi groceries dikirim ke rumah contohnya dari apps Walmart+, Instacart (caters Wegman's, Aldi, etc.). Mereka ada subscription fee, service fee, sama utk Instacart sepertinya harga sedikit lebih mahal di apps dari di toko langsung.

List of places:

  • FREE groceries on Campus - Cornell Food Pantry
    Must qualify and sign up https://scl.cornell.edu/residential-life/dining/about-dining/food-security/cornell-food-pantry
    For example I think PhD students are technically not eligible but they don't require proof of any kind
    Not open every day. Ideally line up before opening hours to have the most options to pick
  • Big grocery stores
    • Walmart - affordable
    • P&C fresh - affordable
    • Aldi
    • Wegman's - my personal favorite
    • Trader Joe's - many delicious snacks and pre-cooked foods if you're lazy to cook
    • Target
  • Local stuff, not limited to food
    • Ithaca Farmer's Market - only on Weekends
    • Anabel's Grocery - on-campus store (Anabel Taylor Hall) for affordable local produce, ingredients, snacks, and zero-waste (bring your own containers) ingredients. They work with local vendors to supply these. Sometimes they have free food (they post on their Instagram story). 
  • Asian Options
    • Ithaca Tofu - most complete, ada Indomie tentunya
    • Ren's Mart - okelah nomer 2 setelah Ithaca Tofu, ada Indomie
    • Green Castle Asian Market - mostly Korean, I believe
    • Wegman's - some Asian options, ada Indomie
  • Certified Halal
    • Wegman's has some certified Halal meats
    • Walmart's lamb is sometimes Halal
    • A1 Grocery & Halal Meat – in Binghamton (+/- 1hr away)
  • Other options, especially for Indonesian things
    • Cafe Pendawa - based in Philadelphia, can order online and deliver
      https://cafependawa.com/
    • Efooddepot.com – Facebook group Indonesian groceries based in LA, for delivery
    • I think there are other Indonesian stores in Philadelphia/Washington/NYC that deliver? 
      Someone pls add them here

*Side note - hal yg tidak dapat ditemukan di Ithaca; Kecap Bango (adanya Kecap ABC), kencur. I'm sure there's more...
