Whenever H-Mart feels too far out of reach, this little gem is my go-to for my Asian grocery runs…read more I love there's a huge variety of goods that you can get from here, anything from fresh produce to seafood, shabu shabu meat slices to giant tubs of kimchi. The list is endless of the goods that you can find here, at prices that are better than many of its competitors. Of the numerous times that I've shopped there, I've only had to wait in line several times. For some reason, this place isn't as busy as the other Asian grocers in the region. I'm not complaining though. I love the convenience of being able to find a parking spot there anytime I want to shop, and I hope New Spring Market continues its business for many years to come.

They had discounted Moon Cakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival. They also have consistent pricing for chicken thighs, vegetables, regular sale pricing for Apples and oranges, etc. As for cleanliness concerns, I think when you go to an Asian Grocery store, you have to expect a sort of controlled chaos. I will say that it can be hard to social distance, but you know that coming here, everyone will be wearing a mask, multiple cashiers and customers will be wearing face shields, most people will be using gloves and everyone will be rushing to get in and out once they've loaded all the bags they can carry with everything they can to buy all at once. I come here for things like hot pot meats, seafood, chicken, beef, drumsticks, live crabs, different vegetables, soy sauce, etc. Tips/Takeaways: -Love this place for all my weekly grocery needs -Definitely great prices, quick staff, patrons all wear masks/gloves, would highly recommend!

Grape plums were something new to me, and I became addicted to them rather quickly. They taste just as their name depicts, a hybrid between a black grape and a red plum. The skin is thick and tart, just like a plum, while the inside resembles a black grape in taste while the texture is a bit chewy like the grapes used to make wine. I ate these almost every day while I was in town!

You can't go wrong with anything you buy here…read more I spent less than $20 and got a decent amount of stuff: Black Truffle Velvet Mashed Potato Pringles Ritz Crackers with Chocolate Matcha Chocolates Watermelon Konjac jelly pack Japanese Oreos Gift Box (not pictured) So far, I've had the Oreos, Matcha Chocolate and the Pringles. All were pretty solid! The Pringles remind me of something other than mashed potatoes but I can't put my finger on it. The Oreos are all different flavors and are slightly thinner than the Oreos sold here in the US. The flavor I tried was White Peach and Crystal Grape. Interesting combination to mix with chocolate but it was actually tasty. The matcha chocolate doesn't taste like chocolate. The matcha flavor is very strong and it tastes like you're biting into a block of matcha but with the consistency of chocolate. I wasn't helped by anyone besides the cashier so I can't speak too much on the staff but overall I was able to navigate the store without any questions. The store is a little tight especially when you're sharing the aisles with other people. My understanding is that the S.mart directly next door is owned by the same family and is a store specializing in skincare. They share the same name but sell different items. Great selection of international treats and a nice place for gifts, too!

As soon as I opened up the adranos, I noticed the sesame seeds were super aromatic coming off the bread. The sandwich itself was delicious although I would have liked slightly more oil & vinegar. The franklin was the favorite of the 3 sandwiches we tried. The turkey was really good and I loved the bacon jam with arugula pairing. The fig pig was also good but a little heavy on the cheese. It was sweeter than the Franklin even though both had jam. The prosciutto was god tier. Really meaty and moist. While I was waiting for my sandwich I noticed 4 other people come in and order the fig pig! The cashier told me that the Franklin is one of the most popular. Service was very friendly and ingredients are fresh & high quality. Inside is small- just a counter to order with the sandwich making station behind it. There's also a small market. There were a couple of small outdoor tables which was nice. I'd come back in a heartbeat.

They do sell Chinese groceries, but since coming here, I've only gotten their drinks (like water, Arizona's, Gatorade, Asian drinks), ice creams (like you'd get from an old school ice cream truck), and snacks (American and Asian). I always come back because of how cheap everything is and I just love supporting local businesses that don't thrive off of being a big chain because they work hard at what they do and they do a great job at it as well! If you every want to just get some cheap drinks and snacks (snacks under or about $1 and drinks under $1.50) then stop by this little corner store in Chinatown! ***Note: They only take cash here!

Here we go....This market has everything thing you need starting outside on both sides of the building to deep inside. There are so many things best purchased in China Town such as fruits and vegetables. Because of the parking situation in this area I keep my time limited to 1 hour. So half hour to 'look'', shop and 15-20 in line to pay. Actually the lines move fairly quickly. While shopping for fruit and vegetables things I'm unfamiliar with I make Google my friend! Shopping here is a fast paced, organized chaos, extremely fascinating whirlwind experience. Now it's not clean like a large retail grocer but I can work with it. Im giving dragon fruit a try this week, next week it will be the yellow 'Korean' melon as it was listed. It's really a crazy pace but worth a try since Chinatown has so much to offer. This place is reminiscent of China meets New York City both places a must visit location!
