I enjoy getting unusual gifts for friends at this store. The selection is amazing-there is a whole aisle of teas, one for soups, sauces, dessert items... sure to be something you've never seen before! The refrigerated and produce sections also contain great items that are hard to find, like quail eggs and tubs of miso. I always seem to leave with 5 or 6 bags when I intend to get one item, but my cooking is much more exciting until those items are gone! I've gotten some great ideas, accented by frozen appetizers and other things from the freezer case there(the spring rolls are wonderful). It's like takeout, but better! The prices are great-however, if you are not comfortable buying items whose identities you are not completely sure of, you might not enjoy it as much-there is not always someone fluent in english to help, and packaging often leaves you with questions. There are many dried items, ranging from delicious exotic mushrooms to whole octopus.
All in all, I find it a fun adventure!
