Of course, they're not exactly close competitors, as their stock reflects differing ethnic focuses (Korean versus Vietnamese & Chinese, as far a I could tell?). \n\nWe found a few fun packages goods, but what we were really looking for - Taro pancake mix - was, sadly, missing. I asked an employee just to double-check, and got a mostly incomprehensible jumble of broken English which basically amounted to \"I've never seen that before, and you won't find it anywhere in town - or Chicago for that matter.\" If you've never seen it before, how exactly are you so confident that I won't find it anywhere between Chambana and Chicago? Interesting approach. \n\nBeing a long-time west-coaster, I'm spoiled by the Asian groceries in my area. But this spot does ok."^^ . . "0"^^ . "3"^^ .
