They have beer.

And they're open late.  What more needs to be said?

Joking aside, this store has a decent selection of wine, spirits, and liqueurs.

Plus, they're open late.  And they have beer.

Awesome family run store, with a decent selection of Korean & Japanese grocery needs.  Also, they get major points for being on the south side, close to my home.

Only gripe I have is the parking situation is limited - the store is located in a strip…More »

A friend of mine decided that she wanted to make a Japanese soup, so naturally she came to her only Japanese friend for advice.  While I probably could have supplied her with the necessary ingredients from my own kitchen, I figured it would be better…More »

I have this problem - I love to cook, and more often than not, I find myself frantically running all over the city trying to find ingredients for whatever culinary experiment I happen to be conducting.

A few weeks back, I decided to try to make a beer…More »

My friendly neighborhood grocery store - the go-to place when I don't feel like driving all the way to Save On.

It's always clean, the produce and meats are top quality, and best of all, they're open 24/7.  They recently completed renovations, which…More »

The closest liquor store to my home, and the place that I normally stop at when I'm in a hurry.

Decent selection, even if it's not as impressive as the other stores a few minutes down the road.  The staff are fantastic, though.  Always friendly, and…More »

This is my go-to grocery store, the spot I will always hit before I try anywhere else.  It's a little out of the way for me, but I find the extra driving time to be worth it.  This store seems to have an eerie ability to read my mind - whenever I…More »

This store has a decent selection of beer, which is enough to bring me back again and again.  And again.  And again again.

There is also a fairly impressive selection of wine, spirits, and liqueurs.  If I were one to partake of such things, I'd…More »

Been watching the Food Network channel all weekend, and needed to find some fairly uncommon ingredients.  Sat down and asked myself, "where can I find this stuff?".

If you're waiting for me to tell you the answer, you should know that it was a…More »

Hidden away in an ancient strip mall in the Bonnie Doon area, this place is kind of hard to find unless you know where it is.  It's absolutely worth the effort, though.  While it's not a large store, they have an excellent selection of Japanese &…More »
