Yahsob Spice
Well worth a look - or a sniff - are the perfume and spice shops. Yahsob Spice has a good collection of the latter.

Honey
Yemeni honey is well known - and justly so. Honey shops are found throughout the capital (including Az-Zubayri St), though the honey sold is not cheap: around YRI2500 for 500g. Beautiful honeycombs (conveniently packaged in sealed metal discs) cost around YRI2000 to around YRI8000 (depending on quality). A decent honey shop in the old city is Tariq Honey Shop, near the Sheba Art Gallery, where the gift of bees is also likely to come with gifts of Islamic literature.

Al-Hoda Supermarket
This is good for provisions or picnics, or if you're just hankering after Western goodies, such as chocolate or bikkies. It also stocks shampoo, sanitary towels and - usually - nappies.
