Complaint Regarding Extremely Unprofessional and Threatening Behavior…read moreStore: New Age Market I had an extremely upsetting and unacceptable experience at the meat department of this store, and I feel it is necessary to report it. I initially asked for approximately 5 pounds of pork. The first staff member refused to sell by weight and insisted that I must order by "number of pieces." I explained that as a customer, I do not know the exact weight of each piece and that other supermarkets normally sell by pounds. He responded impatiently and arbitrarily gave me two pieces. Then I asked for about 5 pounds of pork chops. The same staff member again refused and demanded that I specify the number of slices. When I questioned this unreasonable requirement, his attitude became confrontational. A second staff member joined and, instead of helping, supported the first employee and argued with me. He even asked, "Are you buying or not?" When I said I would file a complaint, he told me, "Then don't buy." This is completely unacceptable customer service. A third staff member initially agreed to help weigh 5 pounds for me. However, when I mentioned that I would report the previous employees, he refused to serve me as well, saying that if I complained, he would not help me either. This clearly shows unprofessional and retaliatory behavior. I then went to the front desk to ask for a manager. The staff member there was unhelpful at first and said she was busy. After I waited, she told me she would try to find a manager, but later informed me that no manager was available and could not tell me when one would be present. I waited for a long time, but no one took responsibility. Eventually, the front desk staff member said she would help me get the meat weighed, and I went back to the meat department with her. At that point, the third staff member finally weighed approximately 5 pounds of pork chops for me. However, when I attempted to take photos to document this incident, the third staff member suddenly became aggressive. He lifted the bag of pork chops and raised it directly toward my head in a striking motion, as if attempting to hit me, while demanding to know why I was taking photos. This behavior was clearly threatening and made me feel unsafe. After receiving the pork chops, I immediately left the counter to avoid further confrontation. Key Issues: * Refusal to accommodate reasonable purchasing requests (by weight) * Rude, confrontational, and dismissive behavior from multiple employees * Staff refusing service after I mentioned filing a complaint * Lack of management presence or accountability * Threatening and aggressive behavior by the third employee This experience was extremely distressing. I expect this issue to be taken seriously, and I strongly urge management to investigate this incident, address staff conduct, and ensure that no customer is subjected to such treatment or intimidation in the future.

There's no shortage of Asian supermarkets in NYC, especially in Flushing. Customers seeking Chinese…read moregroceries are luckily spoilt for choice compared to most of the country. DC Market (德昌DeChang in Chinese) is one of many places to shop, and they specialize in meat and takeout meals. This location is similar in size to their Chinatown location, though Flushing has more of a rectangular layout in contrast to the long narrow layout in Ctown. Their butcher counter is pretty much unparalleled compared to other Asian supermarkets with the exception of maybe large format Hmarts. DC carries a wide breadth of edible animal products both au naturel and marinated, including more familiar meats such as pork chops, short rib, flank steak, sea bass, running the gamut to less commonly appreciated though edible parts like frog legs, pork lung and hocks, beef tongue, whelk. Marinated specialties like tangerine peel minced beef and pork ribs in pickled plum sauce caught my attention, among many others. The second largest section is the ready-to-eat food section, with items pre-portioned in takeout containers, priced by the container. This area is composed of several counters with a wide selection of steamed, deep-fried, baked, sautéed and stewed dishes, all categories covered--vegetables, meats, carbs, savory and sweet--food items for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Overall food quality is not quite on par with good restaurants as some other reviews mention, though not too bad if you're looking for a quick simple meal. Aside from aforementioned meat, some seafood, and takeout, they have a suitable breadth of fresh produce, refrigerated/chilled, dried and frozen foods. What you don't find too much here are packaged snacks and processed foods, which I suppose is a good thing.

I will definitely not go back to this place after knowing this place is a rip off.

If you are ordering ready to eat items, plan ahead as this is a strictly take out establishment. You'll also find a wide variety of gourmet, ready to enjoy meals, imported cheeses and meats, and Italian pantry staples and gift items.

Their ravioli are outstanding, once you've had them, you'll find yourself walking right past the refrigerator case at your local supermarket. They also prepare a wide range of Italian specialties, including eggplant parmigiana and rollatini, along with lasagna and a variety of chicken and veal dishes. While I tend to gravitate toward certain favorites, the overall quality and care are evident throughout. Go early, especially around the holidays, as it can get quite busy. And don't miss the ravioli, along with their other fresh pastas like cavatelli and rigatoni. They also offer a great selection of specialty pastas in frozen form, which are well worth having on hand. Durso's is not inexpensive, but as I always say, you get what you pay for, and everything here reflects top-quality ingredients and craftsmanship.

It was the end of the day and not much was left in the case. Which should have been disappointing but instead I found it exciting. A butcher that sells out of everything, shows me everything is fresh. If this place was in Brooklyn the lines would be down the street. I have waited on lines and paid much more for food that was subpar. Empire is authentic and everything I imagine old NY was like. In the end I left with hot dogs, bacon and a few brats. I couldn't wait to get home to cook it all. If you like a hot dog with a snap, you have to try these. They were the best hot dogs I have ever had. I don't think I can ever eat a packaged hot dog again. These dogs were complex but simply delicious. They were perfect. Store bought dogs are so salty. These were not. The brats were just as epic. Bacon will be cooked in the am. I can't wait to come back and try more!
