There weren’t many places open downtown San Antonio on Memorial Day Weekend.  I was walking around to see what was open and found Delivery Market.

They had a nice little selection of sandwiches with fresh deli meats they slice right there.  The sandwich was tasty and they were quick to get the order out.

The sandwich I ordered was around 7 dollars.  I bought a soda and chips to go with it which brought the total to about 11 dollars; a little expensive for a sandwich, chips, and a soda, IMO.  Their website says that they offer pizza 1 large for 11.99.  Sounds like a better deal.  I’ll have to try it next time.

The service was really friendly and I think I’ll go every now and then when everywhere else is closed.  This way, I’m not paying a premium price for a sandwich.

In addition to the deli, they offer various grocery items such as chips, vegetables, bread, canned soup, and other regular grocery goods.  Of course, being that it’s a small market located downtown in a tourist area, the prices are a bit higher than going to a bigger grocery store such as H-E-B.

I visit Mamaya Market for all my Japanese cooking needs.  Doesn’t the name remind you of Cooking Mama for Nintendo DS or WII?  ”Ahhh, better than Mama,” exclaims Cooking Mama… ahh, getting back on track now… For the most part, they have everything you need for Japanese cooking, but there are a couple of things they don’t have.  I’ve picked up some sushi rice, frozen udon noodles, kamaboko, edamame, tofu, miso paste, tonkatsu sauce, panko crumbs, and some tasty mochi snacks to name a few things.  Ahh, and they have sake too!  :)  Need I say more?

In addition to the grocery items, they also offer maki sushi and nigiri.  And, they have a few other dishes such as tonkatsu and udon.  The sushi is decent and cheap.  I haven’t tried the tonkatsu or udon, but the next time I’m in the area I’ll pick some up!
