    Front door. Sign in Cambodian
    Victor G.

    Mithapheap Market has been here for decades. i've been here before when it definitely was a Cambodian market. today, didn't see any Cambodian products but i didn't linger long. too cramped inside. not easy to social distance. the aisles can only fit one person at a time. store is crammed with noodles, dried products, canned/bottled eats, snacks, condiments, beverages, sauces.. the prepped eats were all Vietnamese. small print: "Bai Da Naoup Tiep", (rice & coconut), "Map Bin" (cassava & coconut) 1.59. i like the cassava one better. lady asked for 3.50. paid it. didn't want to hang around to quibble price... -no sell by date, just "Daily Time 11:30 a.m. -4:00 p.m" printed -no mention of who made this. (probably an home kitchen). parking lot is stripped narrowly, not good for SUV's.

    Found this place during COVID19 time, Because the other international market was closed. So glad I did. They have a lot of stuff the other big markets don't have. And I love supporting small mom and pops stores. Although it's a small store, its filled with a lot of different products. And is well maintained. There is plenty of parking at the front and you will be welcomed by the lady that usually works there. They don't sell actually butcher meat items but you cam find a lot of frozen products here and fresh vegetables. All the seasoning you need and also some pre-made items. I come here often now. They also accept EBT.

    So as I have eluded to before one of the biggest benefits of living in the Bay Area is that you can find just about any ethnic grocery store you can imagine. In the case of the Mithepheap Market we are talking about Cambodia. As with most ethnic grocery store you will find a large amount of overlap (for here is is Chinese and Vietnamese) but there alot of Cambodian specific treasures for you to unearth. From turmeric to preserved lemons, you could spend alot of time just poking around this small but well stocked store. They also had a selection of fresh herbs that you can plant to grow your own. Its in a fairly busy strip mall but parking can be found and its worth a stop if you are in the area

    Fake jasmine rice sold at Mithepheap Market

    The prepared food here is good, and you can get a lot of canned and dry food specific to Southeast Asia. You've got to watch out for the knockoffs though. They sell sticky rice from the "Three Farmers" brand that is a rip-off version of the excellent quality Three Ladies brand. They also sell an "Apple" brand of what it's supposed to be Jasmine rice. It's not. The Apple rice has a sticky texture like Chinese or Japanese short grain. Worse, the Apple rice taste like it's been sitting on your counter for 3 days even when it's freshly cooked. We're trying to work our way through it because we hate to throw away 25 lb of rice, but it's nasty.

    I was at King Kog getting my bike fixed and discussing lunch with the staff. One mentioned Mom's Bun Mi "next to the Cambodian market." I was craving banh mi, so figured I would kill two birds with one stone. After ordering at Mom's you walk past the laundromat and there is Mithapheap. Around for a few years now, tucked in the corner of this strip mall on the edge of Clinton and San Antonio. It is not a big market, but they pack a lot in! Also cool to have a Cambodian-focused market. I've been to Korean, Chinese, Japanese, and Vietnamese markets in Oakland, this was my first Cambodian. You enter on the right side, and past the fridge case with some drinks and other items is the fresh produce consisting of South East Asian veggies and fruits. After that are thin aisles with dried vegetables, another with sauces and oils, another with canned goods, one with snacks and sweets, households, and the last has kitchen items. All along the back are more refrigerator cases with drinks, frozen foods, meats, fish, and even pre-made items. Speaking of pre-made items, they have a great selection of snacks at the checkout counter. I grabbed some cassava cake and these coconut milk fritters and both are tasty (though I'm partial to the cassava cake as I really love it). I also grabbed a drink and some canned goods I'd been curious about - like minced crab in spices. If looking for size and variety, you're better heading to the larger markets a few blocks away on International. But there is plenty here to grab between the specialized produce, canned goods, spices, and premade items. Will gladly go back with more bag space and just try more.

    Live crawfish bought at the market. $8.99 a pound! They were huge!!

    We made a trip to this market after months of withdrawal from Khmer food due to the SIP. Hearing everyone around us speak Khmer instantly made my heart heavy and made me miss home. I'm so glad this store is a short drive compared to the 3,000 miles I'd have to trek to go home. This store is small and well packed with ingredients not easily found in most American markets or international stores. This store honestly reminds me of the local thai store I grew up going to in my own neighborhood. It's a type of store where the owners know their customers on a first name basis. Vegetables and fruits appear homegrown and are fresh. They also have some prepared foods in their fridges and adorning the checkout counter. We were lucky to spot the one cooler that had an abundance of fresh live crawfish priced at $8.99 a pound. What a steal! These beauties were practically little lobsters, they were huge! We were lucky to grab a few pounds before they all sold out. This store is a hidden gem in the neighborhood it resides in. Definitely worth the trip given the lack of Khmer grocery stores in the bay area.

    As expected and like 70% of other small local oriental grocery stores, you will end up seeing expired items on the shelf, so you might want to pay attention. I think it was an understandable issue since the inventory turnover rate is typically slower for a store at this location and this size. Still deserve a 5-star based it's size to the variety of products ratio. I have been looking for authentic Thai seasoning and was not able to find it in those bigger oriental grocery store like 99 ranch but I was able to from this store. They also have some pre-made traditional Thai snack/dessert by the checkout counter. I tried the coconut sticky rice and it was delicious. Would go back again :) Tips: The area does not seem super safe but going during daylight is doable :)

    Fresh tumeric, galangal, keffir lime leaves, etc.
    Lily Z.

    My favorite place to get quality Thai ingredients. Although there can be cheaper places for green papaya (Oakland Chinatown), I love that I can get kaffir lime leaf. I haven't found anywhere else that stocks it. Additionally, they have plants for sale near the entrance but I'm not sure which herbs. They have an assortment of cooked foods and desserts near the register as well.

After paying a second time, I checked my bank statement just to be sure and saw I was charged twice, back to back. I showed the cashier clear proof of the duplicate charges, yet he insisted the first payment didn't go through and told me to call his boss instead. He kept insisting I call his boss and that he wouldn't be able to assist me then and there. Only after an awkward back-and-forth did he finally issue a refund. Weird considering he said the double charge wasn't in his system and that he couldn't help me, right? This experience left me uneasy, and I won't be returning. I strongly recommend others check their bank statements carefully to make sure they aren't charged twice.
