There are so many types of rice in the supermarket...are some better than others?
Am looking for a nice white rice like an indian basmati (without wanting to pay 250pesos for actual basmati! in Playero, Sosua)

Any advice?

If anyone is looking for real brown rice then i can definately recommend the Bisono brand!

I have never seen anything but the exorbitantly high priced Basmati.

We use La Garza white rice.

Not quite like Basmati but a reasonable substitute, I like the Pimco Gourmet. It's one of the more expensive of the ordinary brands but if you can store a bigger bag they often have special offers.

Buen provecho! I feel a curry coming on.
