Stopped by on Sunday, 03/12/23. There are 2 locations: 1 in Rowland Heights (inside 99 Ranch…read moreMarket) and 1 in the SGV. This place is relatively spacious and has been in business for so many years selling high-quality dried abalone and ginseng (from Wisconsin)! We purchased a couple of ginseng and they lady was kind enough to use the machine & break it into small pieces and wrapping the boxes up (her wrapping skills are quick and perfecto). This store does not have any more dried abalone in stock for a while, and other customers were stopping by asking about this.

Maggie's review is super on point…read more My family has been buying the abalone here for years. It's pricey, but adds great flavor to soup. Honest business with good product. I usually go to the San Gabriel one in Focus Plaza (next to the Ranch 99 there).

It was nice to see certain items that I had not seen in so long. The store is a bit on the smaller side, but whichever way you look, there's something for everyone. Goods are a bit pricier than most, but not many places sell goods directly from Taiwan. As others mentioned, it was very clean and have a good selection. There are plenty of parking near the store, especially since Big Lots has closed years ago.

It's been ages since I visited Taiwan but I do remember all the good food! The shop is tidy and they manage to pack a lot of items in here while still making it feel uncluttered. Some items they had for sale when I was here were various high grade oolong teas, the Taiwanese version of Otter Pops, pineapple cakes and soy sauce. They have a frozen section in addition to their shelf stable foods with items such as fish and various dumplings. While the cashier spoke both Mandarin and English, the person giving out samples of oolong teas only spoke Mandarin (In hindsight I should have asked if she spoke Taiwanese too). I'd love to come back next time I'm in the area to get more goodies for myself and as gifts.

This market has been here since my childhood and has been a community staple. Lots of fond memories…read morehere with my family, local and visiting, and I distinctly remember buying bootleg Poke'mon cards here from the coin machine and the kind elderly security guard who would use his own money to help us to do. I was in elementary school at that time so it's been 20+ years. I hope that the years past were warm and kind to him. Now with all of that nostalgia aside, this is a solid Asian market. Plenty of parking and it's off of the busy Nogales. Perfect place to get decorations or other celebratory goods when it's Lunar New Year and when it's not, it's a solid place to get dry goods (snacks, teas, cooking ingredients, dried herbs and medicinal items, etc.). They have fresh foods like produce and fruit too. As well as sauces, dishware, cooking pots and pans, and much more. It's definitely older than the one near the Costco, but I enjoy the warm ambient and nostalgic, busy vibes here.

If I had to pick one, I would recommend coming to this location to better your chance of finding what you're looking for. As I have said with the other T.S. Emporium location, I love coming here for ingredients and herbs that are not typically available at a regular Chinese supermarket. I've been looking for the Double Parrot brand of sago and this T.S. Emporium carries it! I find that this brand makes the best quality of sago so I'll always come back here when I run out.

I'm glad to write a review about their products even though I have never been to the factory. Prior to covid, I hosted cooking demo in the office and invited coworkers to see how to cook delicious dumplings with O'Tasty. During the pandemic and virtual events were only way to engage with foodie friends, I showed them how to make perfect pot stickers with O'Tasty. Now, I am glad to share how much I love O'Tasty on Yelp. I live in Houston Texas. To my best knowledge, O'Tasty products are sold at Great Wall Supermarket, 99 Ranch Market, Viet Hoa Supermarket and Jusgo Supermarket. Dumplings and Potstickers come in 2 sizes, 2 pounds and 1 pound 4 ounces. The prices vary depends where you go. Oh. Sometimes the dumplings crack open or crumbly in the package. That's not O'Tasty Food's fault. It's those who handle the packages and if they stay in the freezer the entire time from factory to the stores. Could be the distributors or delivery people.

I ended up getting the Sesame Walnut dessert and it was so good. The sesame flavor was rich and nutty, and the walnut added a nice texture without overpowering everything. It wasn't overly sweet either, so it felt light and easy to finish. Such a refreshing dessert!

Stumbled upon this shop and so happy I did!…read more They have an array of freshly sliced shabu meats, soup bases, homemade dumplings, soup dumplings, wontons, skewers of different meats and innards. They also have different dim sum like the rice wrapped in banana leaf etc. The lady working spoke Chinese. I pointed at the chive and pork and asked her to get me the correct bag as the bags in the front were not in English. She did tell me that I needed to defrost the skewer before cooking. I didn't do that because in reality I would make these when I'm in a pinch and didn't have time to prepare. I threw the lamb skewers in the air fryer at 400 for 15 minutes flipped halfway through. The flavor is incredible. With a bit of rice and soy sauce, it was perfect. The dumplings were flavorful. You can taste that they are homemade. They are meaty and filled with the chives. The skin is a bit too thick personally but still really good. I want to try to XLB now! Prices are on the pricey side but they are quality items!

They sell hotpot stuff like meat (pork, lamb, beef), fish balls, soup base seasoning, hotpot sauces, and more. I absolutely love their beef brisket meat. Probably the only thing I always go back for time and time again. It's great for shabu shabu (hot pot) or KBBQ. It used to cost $30.99 but has increased to $31.99/3lbs recently. There are individual 1 lb containers available as well. The meat is super tender and WAAAAY better quality than even Costco's shabu shabu meat, which sells for $11.99/lb. Better and CHEAPER than Costco? Sign me up! They do have a $1 credit card transaction fee, so bring cash if you don't want to pay it.
