They have terrific weekly specials and the girls at the register are great. They are not affiliated with any other fruit shop. They sell local farm eggs at less than the supermarkets and at Christmas they have a wide range of specialty items at very low prices. Located on the lower level of Castle Hill Mall near the exit.

Awesome place. I had a great experience with one of the employees in particular; I think her name's…read moreDonna; I was doing some shopping with my 2 year old, (distracting little ones they can be) and in my eagerness to get out of the shopping centre and back home, I left some shopping behind. When I finally realized 2 DAYS LATER, (yes, that's how distracted I was) I was prepared to accept the loss as bad luck and it was almost a week later that I revisted the store to do some more shopping, WITHOUT the 2 year old this time! One look at me and Donna said, "You left something here last time!" She ran out back and emerged with the forgotten shopping bag! I couldn't believe it! I was so pleased because I was about to purchase the same stuff all over again! Thanks Donna. It's customer service such as this that will keep me coming back to your shop. I hope your employers know what an asset they have in you.

Looking for ingredients for an Asian meal, I headed off to Madam Hoo. I can practically guarantee…read morethat she will have whatever I need. I have been going to Madam Hoo for several years. Not only does she have the weird and wonderful but she also carries a lot of frozen products such a pork buns, gow gees and dim sims that you can steam at home. The variety is unbelievable. If you can get past the weird and wonderful packets of strange items, which I am not sure whether you eat or use as medicine, I realise that although Madam Hoo sells them, I don't actually need a rice cooker this week. It's an absolute wonderland of food and small appliances, newspapers and DVD's. I bypass the Asian sweets but hang around the noodles, fresh and dried. I finally end up near the vegetables. We're lucky in Castle Hill to have lots of local growers so the vegetables are as fresh as can be. The shop is full to capacity with stock and in some places its hard to maneuver but that's half the fun. My visit to Madam Hoo is finished,I only have to pay but I am always happy to hand over my money because Madam Hoo is quite inexpensive. For $20 you can get a whole basket of things. Why go to the larger supermarkets for Asian products when you can go to Madam Hoo - I love her.

As an employee from Melbourne who has been in Sydney for two years due to work related reasons, I…read morethought any 10kg bag of rice would be the same in most places. To my surprise, the same bag costing ~$23-28 in other places was almost double at $40 upon arrival on the counter - note prices for the rice were NOT marked on shelf. This is a far comparison from even the few other asian grocers within 1-5km radius such as that within Castle Mall or Baulkham Hills or even that compared to my previous shopping region of Pacific Square in Maroubra. Sure, I could accept that the store rental is dear within Castle Towers. HOWEVER, upon opening the rice bag, I find it crawling with small insects. These insects were also revealed upon retrieving the bag from the rack. I should've suspected earlier. Perhaps it was a bad batch, or perhaps from bad storage or lack of stock flow due to the prices. In business, I understand that you either float or sink; but this is one way of staying afloat that will guarantee the floundering of the business. I for one will not being returning, but hope that this review may change your future practice.

How could you be a fan of a supermarket? When your family eats as much rice as mine does, and you…read morecan by cheap rice in bulk (as well as supplies for Japanese food), then you would also be a fan. In comparison to other Korean supermarkets, this one is pretty huge. Generally, if they don't have it, you don't need it. Btw, if you sign up for a red card, you amass points which you can use for future discounts.

You would think that they wouldn't have a very good business but they do and it must be because of their great meat. Buying groceries you can go to any supermarket but people actually go back to where they used to live to go to a great butcher. All the meat here is halal and they offer more than beef and chicken. If you want a nice piece of goat which I know is a cultural thing, not many anglo saxon Australians eat it, they have it. They also wholesale direct to the public so if your looking for a side of beef for your freezer, they will package it up in selected cuts for you.
