Teso Mini has finally landed in Astoria! This Japanese mini convenience store is a welcome…read moreaddition to this neighborhood, imo. The store is small but feels very roomy with the layout, floor to ceiling glass front and their quintessential LED hexagon honeycomb light fixture.
They have beauty and skin care products, kitchen supplies, snacks, ramen, candies, sodas, desserts, frozen and prepackaged food. My favorite is prepackaged food area with fruit sandos, cream rolls, onigiri and rolls. And most items are reasonable priced.
I finally got to stop by since they opened last week and got a lot of snacks (almost $70 worth). Some of the items I got were ube ice cream, Pocky sticks in various flavors, shrimp chips, taro chips, wafer sticks, fruit sandos, and chocolate ream rolls. The next day I ate one of the Strawberry Sandos at work. It still tasted so fresh, and the strawberries were huge! Loved that the cream wasn't too sweet.
I have to say that Teso Mini has a really good selection of Asian snacks. And it's so fun perusing their aisles. So glad they opened a location in this neck of the woods.
