I stopped in here after seeing a sign saying it was an international market. I don't usually come by this way, so I had never heard of the store, but I was intrigued driving past.
It has a typical corner store feel, one short aisle of refrigerated produce (I think I remember seeing mushrooms, veggies, and tofu, among other things). Most of the other aisles have a range of dry goods, including canned items, drinks, noodles/pasta, beans, etc. I also saw a few household goods, I think, maybe an aisle or two around the back of the store with pots and pans and things.
There was another room that I didn't go into but which can be accessed from a passageway next to the cash register. It seemed like that section was only clothing.
The prices seemed pretty decent for the food items that I was familiar with. The friendly older gentleman who rang me up seemed like the owner of the store, telling me a little about Nepal, where he lived before St. Louis.
I think if I needed an ingredient not available at Aldi or Schnucks but didn't want to drive out to Olive Blvd to go to the Asian grocery store, I might consider coming here first to see if they have what I need. read more
