Why are the staff not wearing masks. This is not good - get the mask on - you are indoors

FreshWay Foodmart - Year of the Rabbit

My heart filled with pure envy the moment I walked in, and that feeling only grew as I wandered…read morethrough the aisles. I live in Miami, and with our relatively small Asian community, nothing quite like Fresh Food Mart exists back home. For a foodie, this place is paradise -- or maybe a little bit of purgatory, knowing I was only there to browse and not actually fill a cart. The variety is incredible, especially when it comes to seafood and other proteins. The vegetables looked fresh and beautiful, and the selection of nearly everything seemed endless. Every aisle brought another discovery, from ingredients I rarely see at home to an impressive range of products that makes you want to start planning your next meal before you even leave. A monthly rental in Markham might be in my future... because having access to places like this could be dangerous for my wallet and very good for my kitchen.

Lots of asian snacks in one place. I was a bit overwhelmed by the selection. I found so many snacks…read moreand flavors I've never seen anywhere else. Prices were also very reasonable considering they were shipped from all over Asia. At first glance some of the snacks have expired, 2-5 months from purchase date but it's actually the production date. Good thing for Google translate. I make it a habit to visit each time I return from the US. I love getting snacks made with truffle or salted egg and this grocery store has a large selection of it. Just have to look.

The most well curated, clean & quality Asian supermarket! Our family + friends rave about this…read moreplace & it's seriously our FAV place to shop for groceries especially FRUIT! Here you can find the esteemed "perfect" fruits from melons, grapes, mangoes, strawberries to oranges all flown in by air. Be warned that these perfect fruits are pricey- even the regular selection of fruits here are pricier than your average supermarket. However the regular fruit selections are like AAA+ quality; the sweetest & most fragrant fruit! No more sour/tasteless fruit ever again!! Winco also has rotating exotic/seasonal fruit by air from all over the world. We were most impressed by whole fresh durian from Thailand recently! Winco def caters to those families who value quality over quantity (it also comes with a higher price tag shopping here) Employees take aesthetics & cleanliness seriously. Their fresh fish & meat section doesn't smell which is very impressive for an Asian supermarket. Fruits & veg are constantly being refilled, rearranged & placed in perfect triangular towers. You can also see many employees shaving off/picking off browned veg leaves so the bag of veg you're purchasing is the freshest & youngest (who wants to be paying per pound for veg & needing to peel off 1/4 to throw away... Winco does that step for you even before you buy) I find that fruits & veggies last longer if I buy from here lol You can also find unique foreign snacks from Japan, Korea, Taiwan & beyond! Their frozen selection of ice cream, seafood & hot pot ingredients are plentiful & full of tasty varieties Never thought I'd be so passionate about an Asian supermarket! Winco is a place you'll want to check out!

Extremely busy supermarket. The Parking can be super hectic, especially located next to the busy…read moreHome Depot. The supermarket is not very big and thus, it may be why it looks full when there is a lot of people. Prices aren't low but it seems the produce, meat and fish are quite fresh, with tons of varieties. They still give out plastic bags at no charge but those plastic bags can break easily as they are not very durable.

I was in Richmond Hill nearly two weeks ago. It was pouring rain. I needed to pick up a few grocery…read moreitems. I remembered this Loblaws store. I hadn't been here in years and felt it was time to check it out again. I had no problem finding a spot. I backed into one. With my umbrella protecting me from the rain, I headed inside the store to shop. This store has a Starbucks. There used to be a standalone Starbucks store nearby that I liked. It shuttered for good. It's good to know that if I need one, I can come here. I needed celery. The celery looked sad here. It looked abused and bruised. Poor celery. It was slim pickings, but I got some. There were some other items that were in better shape. Mushrooms were great. The hydrangeas looked healthy blooming away. The dairy-free beverage section made me happy. This store has a Joe Fresh section. I like browsing to figure out what styles are cool. The downside to Joe Fresh clothing is that articles that I have purchased in the past don't last long. I find that the quality isn't great. This place has portabella jerky. It isn't cheap, but it's nice seeing meatless alternatives. I was also happy with the Russell Stover candy varieties. I love this brand so much. I headed to the checkout and had a nice woman assist me. I paid with a debit card. I scanned my PC Optimum barcode from my phone. All went well. I thanked her and left with my purchases. It's a good store. If it brings healthier-looking celery, it would get full marks. (142)

I came to get some snacks and drinks for the road trip. I got some cheese bread which was pretty…read moremoist and fluffy even on the 3rd day. I bought beer so I had to go through the checkout line with cashier, a bit slow as it was 9pm, less cashiers. I also bought the veggie sticks snack for $2, on sale. Enough selections for what I need at the time which the beer could have been in a fridge though.
