Also, there are two stores right across the street from each other. Now, each building houses its own inventory, and what's across the street is totally different from the store across from it. Once inside, I will say the selection varies from one shop to the next. I can honestly say you will find what you are looking for or even more things you didn't know you liked. Now, my heart lies with all things gems, beads, and stones. But I soon kept wondering and discovered there were these cute scarves for a really great price that I adored. Well, I kept going on, and on and I kept buying to the store across the street, it was a nice day.

Many well-known restaurants started here and still here, like Okome Don, Jasmine Asian Cuisine and San Dong Noodle House. Few years ago, they finished construction the extension and added some new tenants. This mall is becoming the young people's paradise. There are adding Soju Blues, Dim Sum King and Nomi Nori that will crowd this parking lot every single day. I normally park at Sterling Plaza parking lot and walk over. Here is a quick glance at the mall, at the moment: Suite A - Soju Blues (Opening soon) Suite B1 - Okome Don Suite B - Dim Sum King (Under Construction) Suite C - Qi Ao Salon 奇奥 Suite D - Jasmine Asian Cuisine Suite E - Happy Lemon Suite F - San Dong Noodle House 山東麵館 Suite G - Nomi Nori (Opening soon) Suite H - Street Churros Suite I - R&B Tea Suite J - Honeymee Suite L - Sunright Tea Studio There are a couple more spaces vacant at Suite M and S. I hope to see some takeout restaurants or newspaper stand.

Some of the best plazas are (sigh) gone, but this one remains, and is the heart of "Vietnamesetown"…read moreas my friend called it, the other day, correcting me when I called it Chinatown. Indeed, Teaholic has some wonderful Vietnamese drinks and a lot of delicious Boba, such as the Strawberry Black Tea which is one of the best of its kind anywhere. And the Strawberry Aloe reminds me of the Aloe Refresher from Fruitealicious in Dallas. Amazing. Bambu, next door, is the very best location of the Viet dessert and drink chain, making some of the best smoothies you'll ever have - especially the Honeydew, the Taro Coconut, the Mocha, and the Berry. But there's a lot more than just Viet stuff here, with amazing Korean Chicken (Lim's) as well as soups and stews and rice stone pot bowls aplenty. Zero Degrees (Cali chain) has a wonderful and popular location here, with their Strawberry Mojito and Strawberry Lime drinks off the charts, and their Cucumber Lime, Viet Coffee, Strawberry Horchata, and more, also stellar. Not a fan of Chili and Mango stuff, but their Mangonada is famous and popular too. And they do split cups (so does Teaholic). Long Coffee, Kravin, a location of the chain Mango Mango, and other spots in this plaza, are also well worth a visit. Parking and access can be really difficult, but then the same can be said about my gf. And now she's (sigh) gone.

I've heard about it before but not being originally from the area, I'm only familiar with the history of it from word of mouth. I came in about 30 minutes before most of the businesses were going to close for the night, so I was not lingering too long in any one shop. Being someone who always wants to support local businesses, I made it a point to purchase some food from several of the bakeries located in there. If I hadn't already eaten, I'd definitely would've bought a bánh mì. Everything I did buy was reasonably priced and tasted great! Each shop had its own vibe, with most of them being Vietnamese operated. As always when I have the opportunity, I took the chance to practice my tiếng việt, with mixed results but all of the shop staff were helpful and polite, even when my tones were off. In my case, they greeted me upon entering and let me browse to my hearts content, not saying much until I asked a question or made a statement. I appreciate the relaxed vibe myself. There were so many food, snacks and drinks that I felt a little remorse for what I did not purchase. That being said, I'll return another day, much earlier and take more time to browse. I didn't make it into the grocery store, so I'll do that on my next visit as well. This was probably one of the least busy spaces, I've been in the area. I can see that it's seen its glory days come and go but I can only imagine the history of this place. It would make for a cool documentary. Better yet hopefully, the building and businesses will get revitalized in the future. I always love coming and hanging out on Đại Lộ Sàigòn and embrace the culture and support the people and businesses.

Contrary to the name claim, there is nothing Hong Kong about this mall. It should have been named Saigon City Mall which would have been more appropriate. Aside from the huge anchor Asian grocery store in the middle, the mall is flanked by an assortment of Vietnamese-oriented beauty/cosmetics, nail, phone, apparel, gifts, pho and Asian-centric mom-n-pop stores with a sleepy food court on one end. There are quite a few signs pointing to Massage upstairs. The other prominent anchor tenant is Shabu Zone. Generally, around 50% of the stores were closed. Parking lot is Lone Star state size. Nothing else exciting to write about. Certainly, a coulda, shoulda, woulda experience. Sure you'll like this mall if you want to experience Vietnamese culture.

Oh, The Galleria! My ex-husband is from Houston and I've…read morebeen to The Galleria many, many times. In fact, I started going long before I knew my husband. My dad also lived in Houston and we'd often do shopping or eating at the mall. My daughter (who is now 30) loved (& still does) skating at the ice rink during the holidays. It's a magically fun experience. The Galleria is always incredibly decorated for the holidays. I still get to Houston 1-2 times a year and always enjoy visiting The Galleria. The Galleria itself has not only the ice rink but office space, two hotels, lots of places to eat, and shopping. The retail offerings range from shops like H&M, Macy's, and Nordstrom to high-end luxury shops like Gucci & Chanel. We were there just a few months ago and it was just as fun and exciting as my first visit! Gang, there are so many stores here. Like crazy amounts (a few hundred). It's very large and easy to navigate and of course gets extremely busy during peak times. A must-visit for locals and tourists alike.

My friends and I…read moreare dedicated bargain shoppers, and despite our best efforts, the Houston Galleria wasn't giving up any deals. With only about an hour before leaving Houston, our shopping mission was more of a speed run than a leisurely browse. Even without scoring any purchases, the Houston Galleria remains an impressive destination. The moment you step inside, you experience bright lights, multiple levels of stores, and a steady stream of shoppers that create an energetic, bustling atmosphere. Beyond shopping, the mall offers entertainment options such as its iconic indoor ice-skating rink, making it easy to spend an entire day there. One of the Galleria's biggest strengths is its variety. Luxury retailers like Chanel and Louis Vuitton share space with more accessible brands such as Banana Republic and American Eagle, offering something for nearly every budget and style. Whether you're on a focused shopping mission or simply window-shopping, there's plenty to explore...even if, in our case, we left empty-handed. The dining options are equally diverse, ranging from food-court favorites to sit-down restaurants like The Cheesecake Factory and Shake Shack to Chic-fil-a. While we didn't find the bargains we were hoping for, our fast-and-furious shopping adventure was filled with laughter and great conversation, and the kind of fun that comes from spending time with good friends. Sometimes spending quality time with friends is the best find of all.
