The hotel front desk staff gave me two recommendations for asian grocery stores in town. The first was listed on google etc, the other I had not heard of. I went to Asian Market of Florence first, they have a lot of choices, the place is packed with all types of food (including Indian and southeast Asian). A little piled up and jumbled in places but serviceable. The sun again was not optimal for this shot.
My second stop was Chinatown Market. The guy here was very friendly, the place is smaller and less stocked than the other, but very orderly and tidy. He carries fresh seafood too, the little crabs looked tasty.
Not too shabby, but I'm not even going to try and make some statement like the "best outside Japan" wacko post we saw regarding that SLC market.
how does it compare to our market?
ReplyDeleteAsian Market has way more stuff. Chinatown is sparser. Logan has a nice mix of selection with tidiness.
ReplyDeleteWhats the one in san mateo? Nijo....? Near the santa? With their own rice? How cool that you have a couple of choices.
ReplyDeleteNijiya... I miss the japanese markets of San Mateo!
