Abakhan is hidden behind TJ Hughes and until today, I never knew such a shop existed as I seldom…read morewalk down this street. To my surprise, I was impressed to see how much this fabrics, hobby and home store had to offer. Inside is literally packed full of material in piles that look like an organised random mess! Most of the items they sell will attract the hobbyist such as arts and crafts material, stationery and needlework. They also have a variety of hobby books, cheap fashion jewellery and accessories. There is nothing really more you could ask for and for the prices they sell at, it works out a bargain apart from the more high-end material like animal fur. Common items, for example wool and cotton are inexpensive. If you are into any of the above criteria, I would highly recommend a visit to Abakhan's as the shop is jam packed with bits and pieces.

Over two floors, Abakhan's provides reams and reams of all kinds of cloths, fabrics and textiles at very cheap wholesale prices. If you're the type who is in the business of dress making or interior design or just partake in such activities as a hobby then you can't go on much longer if you haven't found Abakhan's or one of the smaller stores along this road. Just because it is cheap doesn't mean that the quality is any less however you might have to look hard for any styles that are very stylish and modern.

Swift Drinks offers 24 hr booze supply for those who just don't know when enough is enough and God bless them for it. The saviour of many a Saturday night/Sunday Morning when town just isn't enough for a good time! What can I say there is often a grizzled, goblin-like man in a glass booth despatching drink and fags to people with a menacing, bitter quality because, well they're trapped behind a glass booth and you're all partying til the early hours.

It's pretty much an all night off licence, fashioned a little bit like an Australian bottle shop! Keep your wits about you when you buy from here though as sometimes weird characters hang around this place in the middle of the night. A friend of mine almost got mugged walking away from this place with a crate of beer; luckily he managed to get to a black cab in good time! This place sells beers, cigarettes, wines, and spirits throughout the night and is very reasonable priced considering! They also sell condoms, if you're caught short on the way home from a club with someone you've picked up! They sell loads of snacks too! Crisps, chocolate, sweets etc! Great for those with the munchies in the middle if the night! Your can get a can of Fosters for £1.10, and I think this is the cheapest beer they sell. Just look out for pissed people after a kick off in this area late at night!

W H Lung or Wing Hing Lung as many Chinese know it, is a Oriental Supermarket located right next to…read morethe ever so popular Tai Pan Restaurant . The store is situated in an ideal place for people from afar, who want to but a few items before or after their meal at Tai Pan or whether it's just for a weekend shop. They are always well stocked with products and have a huge wholesale section at the rear of the building for larger purchases. Staff who are Chinese and British will be on hand to help and advise you of your needs; they will search for an item, especially if it is large and heavy and bring it to you. There is usually someone who helps pack your bags at the check-out too. If you're looking to cook up a treat and try something out of your borders, then you will find a wide variety of foods here whether fresh, frozen, canned or dried. On a weekend, they usually have portions of freshly hot cooked roast duck (laid out near the tills) with an aroma that will certainly tempt you!

I could swear that as a child there seemed to be a toy store on nearly every corner of your local…read morehigh street, at least in the city centre you couldn't walk for toy shops. Of course I am starting to think that this may all be a trick of the mind and at 5 or 6 years of age ones priorities left me somewhat blinkered to anything else around but said stores! Today though there is a definte lack of toy shops. Even in the big department stores there seems to be a smaller range of toys, with small shop space given over to electronic games. Toys R Us as we all know is a toy megastore, something which had me torn between the thought of how great it would have been as a kid to have such a massive aladdins cave to search through and the slightly sad idea of bringing the kids to basically Tesco Toys Megastore. I soon forgot such rubbish when I was confronted by tons of toys including Star Wars figures and there I was 5 years old again and genuinely excited when I saw reissue Empire Strikes Back and Return of The Jedi figures by the original Kenner manufacturer! Oh, nostalgia, it aint what it used to be.

When you walk into the shop, you can immediately smell the aromas of Asian ingredients which sets your senses going. You are presented with essential sauces, dried and canned foods with a mid/far eastern taste so if you fancy something different, then here is a shop that can offer you that exotic twist to your dishes. There is even a butchers at the end of the shop where a friendly guy will provide you the best cuts of meat how you wish. Prices are generally a little dear but you are paying for good quality products so that is your guarantee.

(I'm not sure why someone said that Hondo was the smallest of the main three?) This seems to be a quieter shop as well, but that could because it's not as near to China town. Besides dried and canned goods they also sell fresh produce and meat. Still, I don't think you will find as wide a variety here as you will in Hondo (my personal opinion.) And the prices are a little higher.

The Book Clearance store situated in St. John's Precinct is a small shop which sells a variety of…read morebooks at affordable prices. The shop is not really aimed towards children but more to those interested in arts, literature, history, cookery and languages to name but a few. They have a great selection of books on offer and attract a lot of students. Quite often when I was a student, I went straight towards the computing section where they always had a range of books related to software development and hardware. Their prices are usually cheaper than most high street stores like Waterstones but their selection sometimes dated. The shop is perhaps a little tight for comfort and you will have to be on your feet to flick through a book. However, it is a fabulous place to buy hobby books or a good place to browse if you have time on your hands.

There is a varied selection of fiction and non-fiction books, both paperback and hardback, at pretty good prices. There is usually some sort of offer on as well, such as three paperbacks for £10. In addition to this, there is a section dedicated to Liverpool - its authors, history and tourist information, as well as the usual tat to do with The Beatles. Not an ideal place, if, like me, bookshops make you need the loo (and I know I'm not alone here - something about browsing bookshelves just makes you wanna go!!) as you need to invest some time if you're gonna find anything valuable. Still, worth a shot!
