Think I'd pass on the fresh vegetable section, which sits out on Military Road and looks like it has worn the exhaust fumes just a little too long, but inside it's like being back in Chinatown ... a wealth of Asian ingredients and flavours that you can't find in Coles. I'm not a fan of Asian sweets, but there are plenty of those on the checkout counter, and some of those odd sweet/savoury mixes that seem to be so popular there. Plus rice in large quantities and a choice of ice cream flavours from durian to red bean.

Do you think I can find any of the above ingredients? No! So I open Yelp, I type 'Asian grocer' and this place is only 200m away. So I hop skip it out of Woolies and end up here, Passing the "fresh" selection of veggies out the front, I made my way in and as a very white male, had no idea where to start. My deer-in-headlights look must've been obvious because the shop keeper came out from behind the counter and asked if he cold help. I rattled off my list of ingredients while he scoured the store and came back with everything I needed - some with multiple options! I also walked out with a solid collection of tea, enough rice to feed a small nation and some vegan ice cream. Since then, I've been back a number of times and always have a brilliant experience.

Wow.... Another supermarket in china town. It was really…read moregood set up. Starting from the entrance just right opposite UTS library on ultimo street, very clean. You walking pass 2 sliding doors and mini escalator will bring you down stairs ( and vise versa ). Small cafe on the right hand side after you on lower level, and coffee is supply by Vittoria, you know this brand supply a good quality coffee. They had deal for coffee and cakes. Sign on every isle will guide you find items that you need. The have their own bakery section, and hot food items, as you can choose and maybe try items on promotion, ( this lady is offering me tasting of roast chicken while I'm writing on this review ). Well, on top of that they also offer free wi fi.. I know it sound a bit unusual but I think they want people to shop over here and who ever giving company feel very comfortable to be able to browse the net and write review on yelp.

But there are still quite a few, and many of them are similar and a little overpriced, but not this one! This one has honest prices, great frozen meat, and some seasonal side dishes in takeaway containers! It also somewhat sometimes seems like a garage sale vibe with their nonfood items, since it is a random bunch, but it feels down to earth and homey, and yet not dirty or cheap. They took cash only during the months I lived in Sydney (~mid 2020)

One of Koreatown's hidden secrets, hidden down a dark, dingy alleyway (called Central Street, it…read moreruns between Pitt and George Streets in Koreatown), is this little Korean grocery store. It's small, it's cramped and it's cluttered, but it sells containers of bulgolgi, kimchi, Korean instant noodles, Korean soft drinks, Korean ice creams and other Korean items at some of the lowest prices in the area. Can't complain at that! While it's a secret to most in Sydney, it's no secret to the Korean immigrants living in nearby apartments, there's usually a number of them in the store stocking up on goodies from home.

I still get that schoolboy tingle - the one in the spine, you sickos - when I wander the aisles stuffed with colourful mysteries, wall to wall interestings and colourful sometings. Freezers full of exotic dumplings. Shelves and shelves of sauces I don't have names for. I love experimenting here: every time I walk in I buy 3 items that confuse and astound me. Yes, it can be hit and miss, but the hits when I stumble upon them far outweight the misses. Some discoveries so far: some sort of thick green tea cake, an epic aloe vero drink (with chunks), and a packet of something I'm going to go ahead and call wasabi crackle. So. Much. Fun.

Turns out it's an unusual panhandled griddle fitted with twelve semi-circular recesses in which to cook off, specifically, little balls of batter laden with chunks of octopus meat. It also turns out Tokyo Mart is the only place the sells them retail in Sydney. In the heart of the Anglo-Saxon dense lower North Shore, this specialty grocer is like stepping straight into a Japanese supermarket. Stocked with all manner of imported goods, you'd be hard pressed not to find exactly what your authentic recipe demands - there's everything from "saisho" sauce (a condiment especially for roasted eel) to various flavours of instant miso paste, frozen crab croquettes, dried salted sardines, cooked sweet chestnuts in a jar, and pre-sliced seaweed strips for soups and salads. On the left hand side of the store, they also have a range of cheap Japanese porcelain available - including soy sauce containers and tea pots - as well as ingredients for Thai and Vietnamese cooking, like dried shrimps and rice paper sheets.

The cafe section was also small and is between the cold cuts and the dry goods - ambience suited to those who enjoy the space between the deli section and the aisles at supermarkets.

Disgusting. They sell items beyond food, but have the arrogance to say no refund, go spend your money in the store only. As if we don't spend enough and regularly.

It might make your bottom line look better in the short term, but in the long term having such atrocious disrespectful customer service to regular customers, will see this company go down hill in the future. They think they are being smart, but they are actually creating long term business suicide. I know every company will take my money, but I watch to see if I return something how they treat me.
