Shopping at Apna Andaz

 Ok I know it is getting redundant, but I promise there is only one more with the word Apna in it. We tend to like "Apna" for many reasons, such as it reminds of us the unity and love, and also the specific nuisances that "we" have... it is funny I wonder why no one has made a Desi reality show on this part of the shopping plaza, going from Apna Bazaar to Apna Restaurant, to Apna Andaz. Where you buy at one place, eat at one and get threading and clothes at the last.


Apna Andaz is pretty good I must say. I go there at least once a week or at least once in 2 weeks. I like the clothes they have there. There is something very Pakistani about them. By the way, the clothes from India and Pakistan can almost always be told apart, unless you have never seen any and you are seeing one for the first time. The back has a salon, where behold, there is threading available!!!! Tada!!! Now that is good stuff... Threading is at the heart of a Pakistani women's survival, without it not much really can go on, sometimes not even the show! They also do facials, I happen to think that their facials or "esthetician" is some one that is the best that I have ever had, and I have had a few... 


So the down low is... Go there for threading, clothes like maybe for party/formal but not quite the wedding dress, and jewelry such as earings, but they do not have a huge selection of bangles. Now the next door place does, so you are in the right neighborhood.


I like the customer service although my mother-in-law does not agree, as her beautiful rhinestone bangles had the rhinestones come off the first few hours she wore it, but I said that is "Desi' you really cannot count on anything 100%....
