@@je777y this is the most disgusting racist statement i ve ever heard How dare AN ETHNIC country with its own history,culture and customs put a stop on hoards of people coming colonizing them in the name of "immigratione" and "diversity"( btw,there s never a discussion on diversity and immigration when it comes to non European countries. How come they don t need immigrants and people "enriching their culture"?!) Uk is already formed with people who have lived there for over 2000 years or other europeans whose culture is very similar to theirs They don t need your american "diversity" because the UK was never founded by immigrants and they are not a multing pot country

Everything she said is true. Make sure that you are at a predominantly Asian Grocery not a multicultural store. Big difference, at least in my area. Ask the people shopping there if they go there all the time, or if they go to another shop for better ingredients. Most will let you know the raw truth about the shops in whatever city. From my experience, anyway. Hope this helps someone, as i was blown away by the selection and the quality of the goods on sale. Also couldn’t believe that they could squeeze that many products into that kind of space……i love going there!

I love how this store one of the first things you see in the entrance are seeds for planting in your own garden.
