I really wanted one of those faux KAWS ballon dog sculptures but the smallest one was $30 and I thought that was a bit pricey.

I would LOVE to come back to this store when I'm in NYC again. It would be worth the trip from my hotel.

I love stores like this that offer a variety of random items that anyone is sure to enjoy or find something. Unfortunately I couldn't bring a lot of the ceramic plates or kitchen items home because I was worried they would break en route. However, they do offer shipping for a hefty fee. I also saw that they have a pet portraits section in the back. Sadly did not have enough time to get one but it looked so cute! I ended up buying an "F off" tote bag. Very funny and very New York. Highly recommend if you are in the area and wanting to look for a cute quirky shop to explore.

What I liked most about NY Hort is they had promised to get the job done in one day and were very transparent about costs upfront. The job entailed removing old plants, planting new ones and removing furniture from my patio. The latter was a huge help. They brought in a crew of 2 and what I thought would take a few days to do they managed to finish in about 5 hours. It was really impressive. The staff was very professional. They were able to add a power wash service too for a competitive price.

Nice place just to browse Chinese decors, knick knacks, clothes, snacks and condiments. I bought some nice pens and a beautiful silk scarf. Prices are reasonable.

Over all, i like this place, feels like it instantly transports me to China with out leaving NYc.

I still remember Pearl River in the early 2000s. Two full floors and the go to spot for anything and everything Chinese: snacks, dry goods, stationery, art supplies, home goods. Walking in felt like stepping into a small piece of China right in NYC. It felt layered, authentic, and full of discovery. Fast forward a few years and Pearl River moved to Broadway in SoHo. It was still two floors, more spacious, and if I remember correctly, it had an entrance on Broadway and another toward the back (I can't recall the exact cross street). Even through its moves, it retained that sense of depth and cultural immersion. I recently stopped by the current SoHo location. It's now just one floor. The layout is open and well organized, but noticeably smaller in scope. They carry a mix of items: a small selection of blind boxes, modernized gift items, Chinese art and figurines, cupware and fine plateware, a modest kitchenware section toward the back, a small apparel and footwear area, and a reduced stationery section. A small book section with more small figurines. They also carry a small but thoughtful selection of loose leaf teas, snacks, and pantry staples. It's still cute. The prices are reasonable. There are definitely thoughtful and modern touches. But if I'm being honest, it feels different. More condensed. More curated. Slightly Americanized. And maybe that's just nostalgia talking. I experienced what Pearl River once was, and that version was special. It's not bad. It's just not the Pearl River I remember.
