The vendors are always offering turkish delight samples and a warm cup of tea. A LOT less hectic than the traditional bazaar-its like a BIG supermarket

Misir Carsisi Goodplace to buy spices, but anyhow dont buy saffron, if you buy be sure that this is not the saffron that you are used to (the name is the same but the taste is totally different)

Egyptian or Spice Bazaar Not only will you find spices at the spice bazaar, but I go there to buy fresh dried apricots and Turkish Delight...as well as a quick stop gift shop. Although much smaller than the Grand Bazaar, it is just as fun and colorful, and you can find many of the same items.
