This is the best place to go for oriental groceries. it is primarily vietnamese and has lots of…read moreother stuff. the rice is always fresh, they use usually only eastland brand jasmine rice here. it has many types of food for indonesians, thai, viet, cambodian, chinese and koreans. there is also a small spanish section. we buy most of our items here, which is mostly IndoMie, their prices are slightly cheaper than the other vietnamese places down on paxton street. and they usually never have expired product, but you need to be careful, they have a lot of short-dated items. its a small yellow house that you might easily miss if you come down Derry from Harrisburg, its on an embankment near rookies sports bar and a garage. its at the intersection of Melrose and Derry street. its very cramped and crowded and the items are piled up very high. i always hit the sign when i come in thats right above the door. they are pretty nice people and usually always help you with anything. but sometimes you will see them cutting tofu or cleaning meat or whatever. something you wouldnt expect to see in a chain store. theres a few pictures of the owners granddaughter Erin-grace near the cash register. they usually always have fresh cakes and sponge cake there, the food is usually delivered on saturday. they are open 7 days a week, but have very very strange hours. like one day its 8a-5p, the next its 11a-7p, the next its 10a-4p. you really never know and i cant keep track, so unless i go there straight after work i cant be sure if its open. they have closed early at least twice that i know of. this has been around for several years and my wife and i have always gone there. But people congregate there and just talk to each other its the complete opposite of a convenience store where you just want to get in and out as soon as possible. the people seriously talk about the weather when theyre in line at the counter, and then they ask if all the foods fresh, i mean in vietnamese too. i'd want to know if it was fresh, but it takes forever sometimes, it just upsets me so bad.

My husband and I went to check this out based on Dan's recommendations. It's certainly not as big…read moreas Kim's Oriental on Paxton or certainly not 88. It's in a yellow house and it's actually quite a cute little grocer. A little tight moving around but you can pretty much find quite a selection there, from spices to vegetables to canned goods. We were hoping they had Munik spices from Indonesia; we've not found a place that has this brand yet. *still looking* Some of the boxed items seemed old. I wanted to try this almond agar agar stuff and the boxes were stuck to each other - like the boxes had gotten wet somehow. This is why this place got a 4 star from me. I really didn't like that. Additionally they were light on produce. We also saw sesame balls at the register. No one in Va. makes them right now, and we've not had any for months and months. We saw two hard old ones there at the register. Ew. Just throw those things out! But we did ask the man about them and he said "Come on Wednesday after 3, 4 or 5 pm and we have everything fresh". So maybe I'll be trying to go there again Wednesday or Thursday and see if they have sesame balls or fresh cakes, and see if they have more produce then too. I thought their rice was expensive. $12.95 for a bag of jasmine rice! Kim's is $12.75, and we can get it in Va for $9. Sam's Club here has it for $8 but it's a different brand (Elephant). But my husband said their spices were a lot cheaper than other places. So I guess it all evens out - as long as you don't by the $12.95 bag of rice! LOL

Little Saigon is your typical Vietnamese / Asian supermarket. It's located right off of Paxton…read moreStreet, near the intersection of 29th & Paxton and with easy access to i-83. they have all kinds of imported stuff from the orient, mostly korean, chinese, vietnamese, thai and indonesian. they have some meat and fish and fruits that i've always been suspicous about, (is it fresh or not, and if it wasnt would you tell me anyway, even if i asked politely?) i used to get certain types of food here, like oxtail and triple. sometimes they have it, sometimes not. there are sweet cakes, soy milk, longan, leche, durian, clam meat, fish, squid, cocount milk, crab meat, fish crackers, pineapples, corn, mie, noodles, .... pots, pans, plates, steamers, wonton skins, potatoes, cucumbers, carrots, single eggs, tomatoes, tarot, jackfruit, tofu, spring rolls, beansprouts, lettuce, jalapenos, bread rolls, vietnamese hoagies. a vietnamese hoagie is only 1.75, but well worth it is mega spicy and sweet at the same time. its basically a roll thats glazed wit ha sweet sauce, sliced orange & white carrots, sliced pork and jalapeno peppers. DELICIOUS!!!! they do have some types of indonesian herbs, spices and ketchup, seasoning stuff like that. but i have noticed short-dated items, and at least 1 item that had the expiration date blacked out (it was expired). Little Saigon is a staple of the community though. they guys who own this also own the jumbo buffet building next door, it also has a quiznos, Xpose nail salon and car repair shop, Autorizon. These people are seriously nice, they teach me one word of vietnamese each time I go there. And they usually have three indonesian people there too, so its cool i can practice my indonesian skills, which are terrible. They have bulletin board when you first walk in that has various ads and messages in vietnamese that advertise cars for sale, apartments and houses for rent, nail salons available, church services, transportation and so forth. There is usually a lady at the cash register, and they only take cash, credit or EBT.... and it actually IS wheelchair accessible. pulling out of this place and trying to turn left is impossible, but parking is usually alright. update 6-23-08 this place is under new ownership, they've changed things around, lowered some of the prices, but not make the vietnamese subs to-go for only 3 dollars, but ill tell you its not quite what im used to, good but not great.

Papa-san sat at the front register watching to be sure we didn't pocket anything, but he needn't worry. We stopped in for a look around for BBQ fixings for dinner that night, but there was nothing there we wanted. Additionally, their prices were considerably higher than at our local H Mart. The shop did have a fair range of noodles, soy sauce, homemade kimchi and frozen fasties that nicely serve the local fast stop Asian community. Still, we departed without a purchase, waving goodbye to the mister and thanking him for his alert hospitality.

I got Gatorade for me son and a grass fed beef hemp and carrot snack which I liked called brick for only 1 dollar. they have snack foods and cookies like nutter butter for your sugar fix also.
