Whenever we go to Chinatown, we come here to get our Chinese veggies and everything in between along with the best seasonal fresh fruits. The prices are more than reasonable. You will definitely get a lot more than you pay at any local grocery store. The open layout makes it feel like you are at small farmer's market. It has a simple layout but it doesn't get chaotic like some larger stores up near Stockton. Don't let the small place fool you, they have tons of vegetables and arrays of different fruit ranging from strawberries to jackfruit. For those hard core Chinese peeps, you know who you are, they also sell great salted duck eggs that they make themselves.

Then he threw my receipt at me. :( I just took the high road by zipping my lip, quietly gathered my purchase and walked out. Terrible service!

Shopping in Chinatown can be confusing, especially on Stockton Street when it comes to vegetables…read more After all, 80% of the stores in Chinatown are on that street. And there is no shortage of choices. Though most of my normal veg shopping is done at the SoCal chain supermarket, I sometimes can't find certain items leading me to come here. Okra is a good example. For Christmas Day, I'd plan to pick up green beans at the Ferry Farmer's Market from Iacopi after seeing them available the previous Saturday. I was a bit panicked when the young gentleman told me the season is over with last week being their final harvest. Having to shop in Chinatown afterwards, I headed straight here and asked one of the vegetable ladies in front who pointed me to long beans before directing me to the green beans that I sought. A few minutes later, I was at the cashier where there was no line (there normally is one) and headed to my next shopping spot. I was relieved since I didn't want to be on the hunt like many others on Christmas Eve. It is also a trip hearing non-Chinese staff speaking in broken Cantonese. Check it out when you're there. I've bought taro, okra, leafy greens, and now green beans here now as there is no shortage of variety. They have a limited variety of other cooking essentials for Chinese cooking. It does get crowded here during peak shopping times. Will continue to shop here on an as need basis. *** By the way, here's what I created from my buy.

Although Summer is officially over and the Fall has started the good news is Farmers Markets in SF are available all four seasons. There is one Farmers Market on Saturday which ends at 2pm. It's located in the heart of the North Beach Neighborhood and it's called the North Beach Farmers Market. On a San Francisco stroll on the last Saturday of the Summer I landed between Columbus and Powell on Greenwich. This farmer has lots of fruits and vegetables available from local farms when in season like cherries and purple plums . They also have local bakeries along with local arts and crafts vendors. You will also find local seafood with fish and shrimp for purchase. They also food at the farmers market like musubi and sushi. This is a good place to find good food all four seasons in SF. Some Farmers Markets have different vendors like North Beach with "West Side Kitchen" and others around in SF like Saltwater Bakeshop at Ferry Building and many others from the "Mission" to the "Western Edition"the drink and food they offer you will be "enrichen" Here you will find seafood and food that salty and "rich" you will find flakey bread to put cheese on it and also "fish" the food experience do "enrich"and it's located between Powell and Columbus on the street in SF called "Greenwich"

One exception is they carry durian here which is an exotic fruit that I love and while can be an acquired taste it is hard to find. I would definitely return here the next time I was in Chinatown yet would not go out of my way to go here unless I was going to get durian as a special treat!

One of the best surprises we found at Pier 39 was Vlahos Orchards Fruit Market…read more Amid all the tourist attractions, restaurants, and sweet treats, it was refreshing to find a place focused on fresh fruit. During a trip, it's easy to go days without eating enough fresh produce, so this quickly became one of our favorite stops. Everything we purchased was excellent--sweet cherries, crisp apples, juicy strawberries, lychees, and bananas. The fruit was fresh, flavorful, and exactly what we needed after days of restaurant meals. The service was equally impressive. Everyone was kind, attentive, and genuinely friendly. They even had a good sense of humor, which made the experience feel personal rather than transactional. We ended up keeping the fruit in our hotel room for snacks throughout the trip, and it was one of the smartest purchases we made. If you're visiting Pier 39 and looking for something fresh and healthy, don't overlook this little gem.

When shopping in Chinatown, it's a challenge for those who seek specific things. Who has the best…read morecabbage? Who has the best fruits? Who is less or more expensive? The majority of the vegetable and fruit stores are on Stockton Street, spanning from Clay Street to Vallejo Street. Perhaps it is best to follow the crowds and lines, observing which has the largest crowd or longest lines. When it comes to fruits, it gets tricky as most will have your garden variety (pun intended) apples, oranges, tangerines, pears, etc. For those who seek more exotic fruits, you can pare the number to three or four stores. The one that I bought the most in the past was on Jackson Street but they have been closed for over three months. There was a sign posted that they would reopen in a month but... still crickets. There is a new awning and business name on it but, again, no opening date is posted and I don't know if it will be the same business. Anyway, the listing on the popular search engine still lists this business as May Sun Market which matches the Chinese name. The awning and signage (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=0&select=TqFXO9eXQqDCMGnInvKO-Q) should be current. I've walked here on many occasions on the advice of a friend to find particular fruits such as Hawaiian papayas. Said friend asked me to find lychee (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=0&select=CYT_kWlITO8bvGbejSgV3A) and guava (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=0&select=wVGuQrD1IFyDdsm5bhtpBw) so I completed my mission here. Besides getting the fruits for my friend, I bought a bag of lychee for my mom and me to share. I had some a few days later and they were sweet and juicy though the pit is on the larger side. I cannot read the Chinese characters on the listed sign so I'm not sure whether they are from Hawaii, Florida, or Asia. Prior to 2020, they also were the only store in Chinatown that sold a particular Hawaiian papaya brand in Chinatown, one that I found consistently good. Sadly, I have not seen them in recent years. I will likely stop here again next week when we finish those lychee and get more. *** I will be reviewing other stores in Chinatown as I believe this information is useful with the Chinese New Year celebration almost upon us. Happy shopping!
