| - I love the House of Rice. The prices are great, and I can get frozen Kafir Lime Leaves, as well as shelled edamame for a fraction of the cost of any other shop in town. They've got an amazing selection of knives, as well as enough different kinds of chopsticks to make your head spin.
They have Pocky (those addicting little stick-cookies, for those of you who don't know) as well as many different kinds of rice cracker mixes. They also have cheap coconut milk, as well as Mae Ploy Curry Paste - my favorite. Oh - and they have spring roll wrappers - for a quarter of the price of AJ's. Plus, they're fresh.
I'm sure there's other Asian markets in town, but The House of Rice is basically across the street from me - and for that I give them 4.5 stars. That and I love their greeting cards, wall hangings, and generally great selection of trinkets. The staff's nice, too.
One note: They don't stay open very late - 6:30 during the week, 6 on Saturday, and 4 on Sunday - so plan accordingly.
