To South Asians and anyone interested in cooking South Asian foods. Only 4 stars because I have an ethical problem with the owner and his sons. Do not buy or consume their "freshly prepared" foods, unless you are near a bathroom.

Said to call a couple days before and they'd see what they could do. Disappointing. It was also my first visit to the store. A little overwhelming. Not really catering to a broad audience. I struggled to understand the layout and find what we wanted. It's a staple and a good source for Indian specific items. But not really welcoming for newbies.

Come here for it to go lunch or eat their little tables out front. The sandwiches they make are fantastic and then to go food whether it be fresh hot or cold sandwich or some food to take home your refrigerator. It's all great. You'll find anything better anywhere near here. Highly recommended.

An Asian Grocery Store in Aurora! I went in today to check it out and the owner told me they have…read moreonly been opened for 3 days. The store isn't fully stocked as he is expecting more shipments this week. Most of the items were not price tagged yet, but the prices are slightly higher than your big box stores since they're smaller. That might be worth it to not have to drive 20 minutes to get to another store. 20lb bag of Three Horses rice is $21 and a 2.5oz bag of shrimp chips are $2. They are planning on carrying a wide variety of Asian groceries, including Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian, and Filipino food. They have sauces, rice, noodles, snacks, some clothes, hair dyes, beverages, frozen food and some refrigerated food.

I often wondered if I would be able to erase the imprint of Joseph's memories after it closed…read more Erased. KD is great! It is very spacious, clean, and unique! Great prices overall. Fresh produce. You can find some great deals on their fresh meats too. The bakery is dangerous for carb resistors as they prepare some treats that are truly magic in here. I can never just walk by for I am too weak. In my humble and hungry opinion, KD's highlight are their prepared items. Those soups are the best! Wild mushroom, a few borscht variations, all delicious. They have full on prepared dinners too. I can't get enough of those blintzes...blintz twice if you're addicted. Considering the competition within the surrounding Crystal Lake area, do I think K D is distinctive enough to hold it's own? Of borscht I do. #dadjokes

And yes, in case you didn't know, while it's called "International", all those nations are in Asia. We come here mainly for two things - either getting ingredients to make hot pot at home, or just eating hot pot here. They also have dry pot, which my wife and I really like as an option. You grab a basket and fill it with whatever veggies you want, then a separate one and fill it with proteins, then you pay by the weight. You can either get it hot pot style in a big bowl of hot broth, or dry pot where they cook it in the broth but serve your food already cooked. As far as the grocery selection, they have a big seafood selection and a decent butcher area. Also a lot of Asia snacks and frozen selection, and a small liquor section too. Produce is fine. But if you're making hot pot at home, they have the sliced meat, soup base, sauces, and a little frozen fish ball self-serve area. If you don't want to eat hot pot here, they serve other Asian hot dishes, and there's a bubble tea spot and bakery here, but I haven't tried anything else besides the hot pot. Sense a trend yet? It's not as big as Joong Boo, and it's bigger than the current H Mart for now but will be interesting to see how the new one compares. Overall it's a fine grocery store and we'll come back when that craving for mala spice strikes.

Park to Shop is my go-to Asian grocery store. They have a food court inside, live and frozen…read moreseafood, a bakery section, and even kitchen supplies, in addition to fresh produce and packaged goods. Here are some of things that are usually on the shopping list: * dried rice noodles (for pho and noodle soups) * sauces or seasonings (hot pot broth packets, xo sauce, chicken bouillon, pho soup powder, bun bo hue soup powder, pho spices, chinese cooking wine, dashi, fried garlic, fried onion, etc.) * produce (bok choy, pea shoots) * tofu * baked goods (bbq pork buns, hot dog buns) * frozen items (dumplings, udon) I re-stock on items that I wouldn't be able to easily access to the grocery stores closer to me. It's definitely an out-of-the-way grocery trip for me, but the Park to Shop Aurora location is much closer than say, driving the Chinatown for Asian groceries. I am glad I can get what I need here, the prices are average/accessible, and there are so many options to eat Pacifica Square so it's fun to make a little trip out of it. My order usually is 1) eat something delicious in the food court or right around Pacifica Square, then 2) walk off the food by grocery shopping. Be sure to peruse the sauce aisle! That's my favorite.

Another time I got a box of cake that is imported and pricy, and after I got home found out that it had a broken seal, and several pieces of the cakes are missing. Park to Shop, you can't expect the customer to always count on checking the seals of your product and there's no way for us to know the quality of the inside of a fruit. It is the basic business integrity that every grocery store needs to hold to gain customer trust. I'm very disappointed and think that Park to Shop lowered the Asian groceries' reputation bar.
