| - Have you ever been to the ones in Southern California? Yeah, no comparison, so I'm not even going to knock them for that or else they would merit 1 star.
Most Asian markets do not give off a pleasant scent, but this one is immediate as soon as you walk up to the entrance. The strong smells are usually from the exotic variety of stuff they carry, so I can't really fault them too much. Maybe they should try industrial sized boxed baking soda to absorb the smell? The upside of it all, I know they carry everything I need to complete my hot pot meal.
The produce section can be a bit lacking in terms of freshness. The spinach and watercress could be better, but it is what is it. They have all the exotic fruits like jack fruit and lychee. At the seafood section, they offers services to cut or deep fry the fish for no additional fee. I do appreciate the fact, that they carry thin slices of meat perfect for shabu shabu in beef, pork and even lamb.
If you're desperate like me and this is the closest Asian market within 15 mile radius, that carries all the products, my options are quite limited. This store definitely does not offer the best prices in town, I would say another option would be International Marketplace. Henderson is limited and traveling to Las Vegas is almost a must. Grrr!!!
