So it has come to my attention that I may be an adrenaline junkie. Always looking for new experiences to break through the monotony of life and light me up with passion and excitement. Low and behold this Asian supermarket really lit me up and I cannot wait to go back to try more of there foods and explore more of what I can soak up of the Asian culture. One of the first things that really grabbed my attention after looking through all sorts of fruits that I was not familiar with was Korean Pickled Cucumbers. At $35 a jar I did not pull the trigger and get to try them but one of the first things I did when I got home was to ask Alexa, what in God's green earth is a Korean Pickle? Alexa to my surprise said they were better than Western culture pickles!! Ask her for yourself! I ain't lying :-) In addition to the staples in all food markets, like a fish section and a meat section, they have a food court. The food court enticed me as I saw a family eating from a big pot scooping out portions of soup for each other. I will absolutely come back here this week to try their soup and update my review once consumed. They also sell cook ware such as : ramen bowls, sake containers, among many more items. Highly recommend you check them out if your looking for a change from your usual food shopping runs. As always people SYOY!!!!
Bonjour - Our family love coming here :) My family including John C Nyce - can get the sours and tropical fruit like durian here for Ray Nyce (Luthern Home ) :)
It was good the food came out fast I got the rice cake ramen and it was at the right level of spice
My family likes to visit this place and the prices aren't too bad at all. If you need the products they have, then definitely visit the store:
I love Assi plaza, but I'm not sure if it's because there's not a lot of Asian markets around us, haha. I lived in pittsburgh for awhile so I'm super spoiled with the Asian grocery selection. Anyway, I think the best part about Assi plaza is the produce, they always have very affordable fruit. Love the fresh produce selection. Snack wise, I wish there's more Taiwanese snacks, but of course I'm very bias. I also love their food court and the bakery! I always get bread & buns from the bakery there. Just remember, the bakery doesn't open on Sunday! I look forward to see more Asian markets opened around us, I need competitions to give a more accurate review.
First time here today to meet my Korean-American friend. It's a giant Asian grocery store with a special focus on Korean stuff. It can feel a bit overwhelming if it's your first time. I've been to H-Mart in various cities in the past, but it's my first time in such a big Korean grocery store. I was in a bit rush, so I didn't buy any grocery, but I did eat lunch at the food court. I had beef ramen and a coke--price is fair and the ramen tastes okay, a bit bland.
This asian international market has been my family's favorite place to shop grocery They have everything you need basically From fresh fruit/veg to Meat and all types food and food court! I tried soondae which is my favorite korean snack food, they were amazing ;)
It's a very sizable/perhaps more like huge international/Korean grocery store. If you are looking for any Asian cuisine ingredients, you should be able to find it here. In terms of floor space, it's akin to Walmart Supercenter. Besides its extensive stock items, there's a large seafood section--with some exotic fish and shell fish. Their meat section is very impressive with thinly sliced meat for bulgigi and shabushabu for example. It also has its own food court offering six or so types of Asian/Korean food including Korean BBQ, Ramen & Noodles, packaged sushi, Korean mean dishes, and Bakery. Seating is somewhat limited especially during busy shopping/lunch time on weekends. In addition, they offer a very good selection of kitchen utensils, pots and pans, dishes of all sorts, small appliances, and some boxed gift items. So, it's a comprehensive Asian grocery store and more. If you're in the area, you must visit this store and take advantage of what they have to offer here.
This place has everything, lots of Korean and Chinese grocery items. They have a large selection of products here. Lots of Korean bbq meat here which is perfect for grilling at home. There are chinese veggies here too such as chinese eggplant and taiwanese cabbage. They have everything a traditional grocery has as well. Large parking lot and located in a shopping center in the burbs. I think coming here is less stressful than going to hmart which is in philly. Prices are decent, I think they're about the same as prices at Hmart. There is just more space and it is cleaner here.
It is pretty hard to get super excited about a supermarket. Still, Assi Plaza brings a lot of value to its customers and deserves some positive recognition. It has all the standard offerings of a tradition supermarket, such as produce, meats, and dry goods. It also sells what I'd call knickknack and elements you might need for say your kitchen. Finally, they offer their own prepared foods and have a few small restaurants inside their store which offer take out. So why the praise. Well, first I feel they do all of the above well. Further, they offer a lot of unique produce. Prices are reasonable. They also did an amazing job at the beginning of COVID (everything cleaned, free gloves for all customers) and continue to role model appropriate COVID response. A side note, they also sell plants in April and May. I was very happy with how well the pepper plants I got did in my backyard last year and doubled down this year. Nice to have some home grown options to hold me over between trips.
