This place is usually packed with student types buying the huge range of Asian groceries and alcohol.the prices are pretty good, comparable to one of our fav shops "hong kong" in Clayton. I love the wide range of salty snacks things and Pocky packets and Japanese snacks, yummy. If there queues the place is usually worth a look I say!

This grocery store is very big and quite complete in its range of stock. Unlike a lot of the other asian grocery shops in the CBD, they also have fresh produce (vegetables etc) on site. However, the shop is also noticeably more chaotic and less neat in appearance. It is a slightly more disorganized, rowdy shopping experience - but balanced out by the visibly lower prices of comparable goods.

I enjoy going to this place although I find that I often don't know what I'm looking at! It has a huge range of products from Asia including fresh produce, beverages (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic), sweets, canned goods and oodles and oodles of tea. The selection is amazing. It is usually fairly crowded and the aisles are almost a "single-file" situation but there is so much to see. I go here to buy fresh sesame peanut rice balls, Chinese jasmine tea, Japanese green tea and plum wine. You never have to queue up long to get out either.

Approximate cost: $varies

The grocery are one of the cheapest in the CBD and it's always really busy. However, the people at the counter are really rude and obnoxious. I guess sometimes you can have everything.

This is my favourite shopping place when I am looking for asian grocery. They provide a wide range of food with reasonable and competitive prices. Most of their items are sold cheaper than other places.
