my first experience with Don Don Donki was this very location! i also remember when it had just…read moreopened and it felt like a whole new world as a kid. i was so happy to hear they opened a second location in HK but this is the only one that is open 24/7. i will say that coming back to HK, the location isn't as big as the ones in Japan. there are a lot of foreigners as well and so there's often times crowds of people in aisles. i do like that there is self checkout and that you can use your octopus card or credit card. the prices are relatively reasonable and you can find practically anything that you need here.

This is the mecca of all things Japanese including snacks, beauty supplies, household items, toys,…read moreand more. Think of it as a marketplace that's packed with great items. They even have ready to eat hot and cold foods. Having only been to the Hawaiian locations in thr US, this was the first Donki I have visited in Asia. While the items inside are aplenty, the space absolutely not. This location is kind of hidden and there are stairs to go down into the store or else you'll need do wait for an elevator that only reaches a hotel lobby (a bit odd). The snacks are my favorite items to grab here and I definitely like that the goods are extreme expensive. It is hard to explore the store because of the huge variety but think of it as an adventure when you go. Also, be prepared to brave the line because it is always crowded. Get ready to squeeze in and out of almost every aisle when it's thr evening or weekend.

This was my grocery store when I lived in HK for hard to find items. On a recent trip, I was…read morelooking for Maldon Salt and I knew they carried it because I used to purchase it from here. Of course, I found it! This place is equal to cross between Whole Foods and Bristol Farms in CA. You'll be sure to find exclusive items you can't find elsewhere. Of course, it comes with an equally impressive price tag. My Maldon Salt cost the same as it would had I gotten it from a specialty store in SoCal such as The Butchery. I was just super psyched to have found it. Other things I like to get from here include: herbal tea and olive oil.

Good dairy products from around the world. Huge store, prices are more up-market here. It's in my favourite shopping area on Nathan Road, right above the within Harbor City/Gateway. You can access the high speed ferry to Macau downstairs (and the Star Ferries between Kowloon and Hong Kong Island).

Like previously mentions, visiting supermarkets while abroad is a must for me. Luckily, Wellcome…read morewas walking distance from where I was staying. At first glance, from the street view, you can't see much; in fact, I didn't even realize it was a market until much later. Go down the steps and you'll find the coolest basement shop! The layout of the shop is very nice, as you can easily browse items without bumping into other shoppers. There's a fresh product section, along with frozen items, beauty products, dry goods, drinks and your usual suspects of Hong Kong/Asian snacks. It's not City Super, but when you're hungry or in need of some groceries it's more than sufficient.

This is one of the bigger Wellcomes that I've been to. I love that it carries a wider variety than…read morethe others. I think it's because it's across from the BP International Hotel that it carries a more international supply of stuff. The location is also very convenient and there's never really too many people there.

Shopping in Hong Kong…read more.. We didn't know what kind of store 360° was, so we went in. I wouldn't say that it's just a convenience store because it had a bit more merchandise than just grab and go snacks. There were cookies, Candies, and 3 in 1 coffee packets. I was surprised to see marshmallows with Brown from Line Friends. I had to get it for Kathy H.! LOL! We looked in another 360° and found Brown marshmallows, but no Cony... Sad... Haha! This store was a bit crowded with narrow aisles, customers, and staff restocking the shelves. It was an educational experience!

Here they have just about any type of fun items and though it's not massive it's a lovely place to find something that even the local convenience store won't have. Staff here is always busy restocking items as there is a lot to see and what a fun place to explore what Hong Kong along with various other countries together share the same love of snacking. Thank you!

It just looks more clean and neat and products are about the same price as those from Parknshop. I was looking for baby products in particular because I traveled with my child but wanted to pack light at the same time. And they had everything I wanted! I also love that they have lots of cut up fruits to choose from, which is convenient for tourists. The website said they open at 9am but they were already opened when I walked past at 8am. And they have applepay, which is not too common in HK. They are located in the basement level of Isquare and is only 1 level above the mtr station.

It's located in the IMALL ISQUARE BASEMENT. I need all the calcium n probiotics I can get but just don't like American yogurt or worse yet Greek pasty yogurt, I fell in love w coconut yogurt Meiji in Tokyo n was thrilled they had it righthere in this market, happy cows! Lol they also have apple yogurt that Europe no longer made dunno why not it's the best tasting ever. We bought fruits all so fresh, they have VN dragon fruit $3.50 each! I have them bigger so plentiful at home I gave them to neighbors. This amazing market is like an oasis in the big city, I'm a tourist n love to hang out here buying junk food snacks like curry chips fr Indonesia they were very good. Highly recommended 5 stars.

Enter Wellcome - conveniently located just steps from a few hotels nearby (including the one I was staying at) and pretty reasonably priced to boot! I had many greek yogurt/cereal dinners on the cheap here, as well as a few last minute flight-snack grabs. the staff isn't particularly nice, and are often in the way of the narrow aisles when you're trying to shop, but it's no different than shopping in a market in NYC in that regard. Also keep an eye out for evening markdowns in the fresh bakery / fresh foods department, where you can score some cheap 2-for-1 prices on buns and other delicious goodies. when i return to HK i'll most likely end up here at some point again. Bonus points for being open late!

SOGO Supermarket is the food hall in the basement of SOGO Department Store. Basement food halls are…read moreubiquitous in Japanese department stores and pretty much the only section of the store that I care about. You can find a variety of Japanese food products here, along with some other imported items as well. The dessert/cake section is quite extensive and there are multiple bakeries/desserteries. They have Japanese brands/companies but also a couple local ones as well. I tried their Japanese cheesecake tart place and it was quite good. The tart was fresh and warm. Their cakes are detail-oriented and glamorous like the ones you'd see at a department store in Tokyo. There's produce and meats sold here, but they're pretty pricey, as you can imagine. That week was their Taiwanese fair, so the market had an assortment of Taiwanese street food to eat. It can be super crowded here, so keep that in mind if you're not into crowds. But then, if you can't handle crowds, why are you in Hong Kong?

It will never stop surprising me how you can enter a building in HK and discover a whole new world…read more The city is practically built by stacking upwards so some of the best things are tucked away on upper and lower floors, hidden away from street level. Case in point, it took me 6 months to discover SOGO's basement even though I lived, quite literally, next door. SOGO is a gigantic department store that attracts hordes of shoppers, many with luggage, every hour of every day. I knew all this, I saw the insane mass of limbs and luggage wheels every time I crossed the street. That's why i was deterred from going in until the last month of my stay. What I didn't know was that there was a food paradise tucked underneath all the people and the floors. The SOGO grocery store is similar to other high end grocery stores, but with a Japanese focus. Very clean, very large, and with many exotic varieties at a premium price point. There is an area in the middle that sells an assortment of Japanese snacks: dango, matcha tea, sun-dried squid, etc. To be honest, I never actually bought anything from the grocery store but I did go for SOGO's assortment of ready-to-eat food kiosks, all imported from Japan, all amazing. There's a quiche place with an array of the most beautiful quiches on display (fake, but still pretty), there's a cheese tart place (BAKE) that puts a dent in my heart and wallet because the tarts are so delicious and overpriced. There are Japanese sweets, Japanese cakes, and foreign snacks that a certain Japanese shop has repackaged for the Asian population. Beard Papa (cream puffs), Juchhheim (German layered cake), iCremeria (ice cream), Kobe Beef Meat Pie, all evil temptations for someone with an empty stomach. My favourite is Croissant Taiyaki (especially with apple filling): crispy, sugary, flaky pouches that marry French croissants and Japanese Taiyaki at HKD $18 a pop. Sinfully delicious. If you've never been here, drop by. If you're from North America, DEFINITELY MAKE A TRIP HERE. It's unlike anything I've ever seen (though I hear supermarkets like this are everywhere in Japan, lucky...) It may have been a blessing that I discovered it late in my time here in HK. I would've definitely gained a lot more weight if I knew about this place earlier. (73/100) - 2017
