I totally understand the return policy and the fact that they don't want you taking photos so you can find it cheaper elsewhere. Are the things more expensive than Amazon? Of course! But they have put in the effort of having a charming store where I can find all kinds of great gifts, so I am happy to pay up. I don't always know what I want to buy for someone until I see it, and I really appreciate the ability to browse in person. Our son always buys gifts here for his host families when he travels, and we take all of our SF visitors here too and they always find something great. They have such an eclectic and fun inventory!

There is no signage in the store or on the receipt regarding this policy. We were told we would have to speak with the owner the next day. When we went back the following day, the woman who claimed to be the owner pointed to an outdated, handwritten "HOLIDAY POLICY 2024". I told her that shouldn't apply to this purchase and it's disgraceful to be charging 4X the price and not be willing to refund. I was told that's the price you pay for being able to "touch the items" vs online purchases and she refused to budge on the store credit. DO NOT SHOP HERE! Attached is a photo which discredit's the shop's response and shows both the $76 charge and "outdated holiday return policy".

As a visitor to SF, and whenever I stop by the Ferry building shopping area, i never fail to peak in the store. This time I actually researched their website to see all that they offer.

The store attendant was helpful. Patiently waited as I made my decision.

Feng Cai Trading is a couple blocks outside the stockton street tunnel and as such, it is the last Chinese "kitchen stuff store" you will see if you head south. There are other kitchen stores, but they are all North about a mile - so this is the place to go unless you want to hoof it across Chinatown. Here are things I like from these stores: o cheap kitchen knives - sharpen easily - though don't hold the edge so well o mortar and pestle for grinding spices o brooms o stone cooking pots for rice or clay pot cooking o spatulas, ladles, pastry knives If you go in, it's difficult not to find something you need or want - and the prices are reasonable.

This store carries a very cute Hello Kitty alarm clock that not only does it light up the wings and its magic stick, it also has tons of cute songs to wake you up. And it comes in blue and pink. The local Asian store carries a variety of kitchen and bath items, hot water bottles, as well as some kitchen appliances such as rice cookers. This shop is a bit away from the main strip of shops on Broadway and it's a great place to pick up everything that you need to make your place sparkling clean.

I can vouch for how fantastic Glen Park is an unique place where I enjoy going here since it's nearby to where I live and has lots of places to enjoy a bit of everything from a place eat and drink. For decades I always enjoyed hanging around Glen Park because it has a good vibe and a model of an ideal residential neighborhood in San Francisco. I am in this neighborhood all the time. It is also a good place to enjoy a place to hike in the Glen Canyon Park. There is a place in the Glen Park neighborhood where they sell lots of fun stuff from books to celebratory cards along with art and it's also a gift shop. On a November autumn stroll through Chenery street in San Francisco Glen Park neighborhood I enjoy going to Perch because it has lots of interesting items available along with some art on the walls. It feels as you stepped inside a small art gallery which sells jewelry, stationaries, special occasion cards, kitchen items, and some good books about drinks and food. When visiting the Glen Park neighborhood in San Francisco plan a visit and stop at Perch on Chenery street. Go to Glen Park if you are in "search" for novelties and interesting "merch " and it's available inside a store called "Perch" if you haven't gone to Glen Park better do some online " research" Come to one of the best neighborhoods ranked #35 in the world by Time Out ( timeout.com) as it was " written" and enjoy a stroll all four seasons with the neighborhood charm you will be "smitten" go to the Perch which is located on Chenery street and the cross street is called Diamond and it's a gem that is " hidden"

Unfortunately, I will never go back after an interaction that I had with the woman who works there today. She has never been particularly polite (she's snapped at both me and my husband), but we were willing to overlook that to support a local business. That changed today. I approached the store with my newborn in her stroller. The woman had her large, nine month old puppy tied to the front door of the store. Since the dog could easily jump on my stroller (it was quite large), I asked if it was baby friendly. I said, "I have a newborn in here, is your dog safe with babies?" And she snapped rudely, "I don't know. That's your responsibility." Mind you, we were literally on our first walk out of the house and had prioritized going to perch to get a little gift for our baby girl. This interaction was so totally unnecessary. Not only should a giant puppy not be tied to the front door, but to snap at parents trying to keep their kid safe is totally inappropriate. Move your dog! Be kind! Ugh I am so done. I will never be back. PS, I should clarify that I love dogs and I am a large dog owner myself. It is our responsibility as dog owners to 1) know how our dogs behave with kids and other dogs and 2) depending on that behavior, take precautions. This woman chose to do neither and was rude to us when we asked her to.

Prices range all over but you're supporting a small local business, local artists, and the quality is excellent. Service was friendly and helpful and she volunteered up some information on the items I was purchasing. Definitely a great shop and asset to the block.

He was so happy and kept saying how much he loved it! It's these thoughtful little gestures that make this shop so special. Friendly staff, wonderful products, and a welcoming atmosphere. I'll definitely keep coming back whenever I'm in Japantown!

The owners and workers are always so nice, when you call to ask before you head to the city (if you don't live in the city) that's a great option too bc they can let you know if they have matcha powders in stock. Sometimes even if they don't have matcha powders I still like to come to this shop to look and see other new arrival bowl designs they may have. The dark bamboo whisk I got from here holds so well! It's been monthsss and I have not replaced it, I feel it makes my matcha very smooth but of course this all depends on how well you wash your whisk and how how time you allow for it to bloom in hot water before actually using it but I love it! Great quality products! You definitely get a bang for your buck
