    I completed the SheBuilds program today and decided I deserved a little treat for the certificate I…read moreearned. I had tried to go to the huge Asian styled building called Oriental Imports off Gateway several times but it was closed and boarded up even though Google Maps said it was open. Turns out it's closed and the owners have moved across the street literally and have a smaller space called Oriental Market. It's been open for about 6 months and I swear I've died and gone to Chinatown. It was "Big Trouble" for my wallet alright. I wanted to buy everything there...all the tchotchkes and snacks and tools and clothing and decor! From Chinese cheongsams, to Korean handbooks, to Japanese kimonos, clothing is definitely authentic and you don't have to worry about sizing since you can see the fit there, unlike online. The market portion has a lot of snacks and sauces and basically they've taken the most well known and tasty brands and stocked them, so they've weeded out the hundreds of off brands a bigger marketplace stocks in the hopes that you'll try another maybe cheaper soy sauce etc. It's just easier to find quality stuff here, imo. I got a lot of snacks and even got a Kaiju t-shirt that vaguely reminds me of the Jurassic Park logo, so it's mildly ironic. The quality of the items were far better than the actual Chinatown stuff I grew up with in Los Angeles, but we'll see as I use them over time. I'm so happy I don't have to wait to get my Chinese ointments and wait for Weeee to ship my stuff online. There's now a super cute local place I can go to get them and the prices and service makes it even better!

    I was super excited to hear about a Chinese market here in El Paso. Coming from Brooklyn to Dallas…read moreand now El Paso I've been missing the ease of just grabbing dumplings or any sauces I need. I was pleasantly surprised with the selection available. Sadly the pricing reflects the fact that you're in El Paso. Nearly double what you'd pay at a Chinese market. So that stinks. It beggars can't be choosers. Some of the items didn't look too fresh and it was a little dusty in some spots. So not a lot of rotation of products. But overall was happy to grab some dumplings and egg rolls!

    The service at this market is absolutely awful!!!! I spent almost $200, some of that was live…read moreseafood. I purchase some clams and some crayfish. The crayfish were in little net bags, I did see movement so I grabbed 4bags. 3.3lbs of those were dead. The cashier failed to give us our clams, I called them when we got home she apologized for "forgetting to give us our bag". We live far west and in traffic the drive is over 30mins. The Manager eventually joined the call and told me I had to pick up my clams that day (we wouldn't even have made it in time as they were about to close) or I would lose my money because that was our responsibility. I asked if he could just give me a credit for the dead seafood and the clams they kept. I took a video of the dead crayfish and weighed them in a scale. He absolutely refused and became hostile on the phone. I told him I would call my bank, and take to social media so consumers would know who they are dealing with. They kept taunting me and deleting my comments. He posted a sign about bags and posted that on TikTok, then also posted something stating "if you don't know how to handle live seafood, don't buy it". I have lived on the coast for a large part of my life and I'm very familiar with handling seafood. This is incredibly childish and unprofessional. The amount for these items totaled approximately $40-50, I spent almost $200. I honestly didn't see a big deal. I told them I would never return, their response was "THANK GOD!".
