Kirana /keer-ana/ (noun) - In India, a small, usually family-owned shop selling groceries and other sundries.
A word used in many South Asian homes to start the day. A word that brings up memories of mouth watering smells and flavors. A word reminiscent of mom holding your hand and walking you to the Kirana to buy ingredients fresh from the mills and the fields. Kirana - where colorful sights and smells remind us of Mother Earth's bounty.
We at Kirana in Fort Wayne, Indiana, have recreated those memories for you to pass it on to our new generations. We know you will enjoy our variety of spices, masalas, and dry grains to provide a mouth watering meal from all corners of South Asia.
