I think there might be a connection between this market and Axum Cafe, as there seems to be a lot of movement between the two and similar faces as well.This spot will help you out in a pinch, be it for cookies or lemonade or water or even, chicken broth!

This is my little neighborhood market to go for my newspaper or Honest Tea. It is also where I go to talk about Ethiopian culture, Middle East politics and food. It's owned by Siguy, who owns the Axum Cafe next door and I love chatting with him..when he's not back in Ethiopia visiting his family. But I have Solomon if I want to talk sports..(he could be on ESPN he's so knowledgeable) or Ali, who's all into boxing.They have a fair selection of beer/wine and English goodies but no Haggis!If I had any criticism of the place is that some of the energy bars they sell seem to be out-dated..as in stale. But as for the conversations I have with the staff, they are always fresh.

Sunrise has the three things I need to make sure my walk to the Mission (and the subsequent events that will unfold there) from the Lower Haight go off without a hitch.1. ATM...because you can't go to the Mission without a little fuck-you money. (I'm actually not sure what "fuck-you" money is, exactly, and I probably don't have enough money to be spreading around "fuck-you" money, BUT I've been in love with the term since I first heard it and try to use it wherever I can).2. Sparks...It's not a long walk to the Mission from here, but it's not a short one either. Brown-bagging a can of this favorite energy drink livens the journey and leaves me slightly buzzed by the time I arrive at my bar of choice.3. Curly Wurly...Not only is this hard to find British candy yummy--it's also fun to say...in fact, it almost sounds dirty which makes me love it more.

Every employee there recognizes me both in and out of the shop and take the time to say hello and other idle chit-chat. I am only there once a week so I think that is a definite plus.Yes, it is overpriced. When has this become a surprise? It is a convenience store. I thought that it was common knowledge that large grocery stores actually don't make much money. Their profit margin ration is one of the slimmest in any retail industry. Secondly, they deal in volume as it becomes the only way to turn a profit. Lastly, giant stores, through ingenious social statistics wonks, are able to calculate the best loss leaders to make it seem like you are really getting quite the deal. As in, "holy cow, I only paid $1.29 for all this peanut butter!" "Hmm, I need some jelly now that I think of it...there is some right here for $3.75!" "oh, damn...maybe some milk and bread too now that I think about it." Play that scenario about 100x/day and the nickels they make from the three complimentary products eventually beat out the loss in peanut butter.Sunrise is quite a good example of the small convenience store. With such limited space where can they really implement any plan to mimic the same strategy. they can't so they have to have a higher profit margin on each and every item. they have no real room for complimentary items. This fact is noticeable as the high priced market down the street, New Santa Clara Market (was there an old one?) is actually cheaper. They have more room and inventory thus lower prices.So yes...sticker shock is high. We all get it. If you ran the place you'd do the same thing. Its not a charity its a business that needs to turn a profit. They also respond to market demands. They may have to decrease their profit margin if nothing sold at the price point. Therefore, I can assume that despite rumbling and grumbling the overall populace feels that it is not at the tipping point of an undesirable purchase.They open relatively early...that's nice. The crew is friendly..that's nice. The inventory is limited....that sucks but I understand. The ATM is nice. It's always clean and well lit.What more do you really need?

The guys who own , are what makes the store. They have decent selection, reasonable prices. By no means the most modern or upkept spot. But the hospitality, prices, and local support is why I continue to frequent this spot.
