It was interesting to walk through here. Magazines, a few books, candy, tea, jam, crisps I guess…read moreyou British folk call 'em, and even British radio. Scones. Little lemon cakes. Root beer and cream soda, all kindsa beer. Cheese. They had all kinds of candy from my American childhood that I don't think they sell anymore back home - runts, nerds, lemonheads, mike and Ike's... It was a blast from the past. Staff were nice. : ) thank you.

i really like this shop, because it offers many items that you can't find anywhere else…read more.. i used to come here for the Salt&Vinegar Chips, but since you can now also buy them at Kaufhof or even at Real i haven't been here for a while. last time i went i came here for some ingredients to bake a pumpkin pie. service was (as usual) very friendly and helpful. :)

My favorite shop for Korean/Asian food and groceries in Cologne! Store is fully stocked with all…read morethe necessities for Korean and Asian cooking (Chinese, Indian, Thai, Japanese, etc.) Although I go mainly for Korean ingredients, I sometimes check out their other selections when I want to try cooking other Asian cuisines (e.g. Indian or Thai curries). For quick cravings, they also have various Asian snacks, ice creams, drinks, ramen noodles, frozen foods, etc. Great place to buy lovely Asian gift sets as well. Store is relatively small, but its size makes it easier to find what you're looking for, and it's well-stocked and reasonably priced. They also have freshly made Gimbap (Korean sushi), kimchi, and other goods throughout the week. If you're new to Korean/Asian cooking, you can also ask for tips or advice from the owner or regular patrons; they're really nice and friendly and speak great German if you're non-Korean. Another plus: Great convenient location on Berrenrather, near all the places I need to run errands. :)

Great shop selling English, Irish, and American goods. Friendly staff. Lots of selection. They…read morewere sold out of a lot of things when we visited because they had just opened the night before. In addition to UK items, they have some Canadian/USA items (ie Kettle Chips, maple syrup, Hershey's, Reese's...), Australian stuff (e.g. vegemite), and other goods from around the world. Prices are pretty good. Highly recommended.

From the owner: ...seit 1989 in Köln! Das Asia Center öffnete am 1 August…read more1989 unter dem Namen Asia Markt in Köln auf der Luxemburgerstrasse seine Türen. Sehr schnell erlangte die Familie Chhay einen sehr guten Ruf und rasch baute sich ein Stammpublikum auf das bis heute die Treue hält. Das Geschäft expandierte 1995 und der Barbarossaplatz wurde eröffnet. Von 70 qm auf 200 qm bedeutete eine größere Produktvielfalt mehr Personal und mehr Service. Die Interesse der Großkunden (Kleinmärkte und Restaurants) wuchs unaufhaltsam. 2001 war es soweit, durch das knowhow und die Erfahrung der vergangenen 12 Jahre die einfließen konnten, öffnete das Asia Center sein Tor mit einer Vielfalt auf 600 qm und 3 Etagen einem Tiefkühlbereich der so in Deutschland einmalig ist. Jetzt finden Sie uns auf der Hohe Pforte 4-6 in 50676 Köln

my absolute favorite go-tostore for specialities. you get a bunch of fresh herbs (i.e. basil,…read morecilantro, peppermint) for a buck. super tasty and cheap packaged rice... also asian & middle eastern ingredients like tahini et al. are much cheaper here then in regular supermarkets. check upstairs for fresh olives and cheese.

It would not surprise me in the least if this were the most well stocked and comprehensive grocery…read morestore specialising in East Asian products in all of Germany. Heng Long may be a little more out of the way than other Asian groceries in Köln, but I will always go out of my way to go there. On my first visit I had a list of: makgeolli, rice flakes, peanut paste without sugar or palm oil, sliced refrigerated rice cake, aloe vera drink, dried bean curd sheet, etc. The store had exactly everything I was looking for and more. They also stock gifts, novelties, and cooking instruments. From me to you, it doesn't get better than Heng Long!

This is by far the most complete Asian markt I found in Cologne. They have almost everything you…read moreneed and even better they have it in several brands so you can actually choose what you want and from which country or which company you want the product from. It is a bit hidden behind aral tank station in universität but once you look closer it is there! The products range from lots of country and brands, they also have varieties of frozen food especially seafood. Sushi ingredients are by far complete here, and other seasoning can also be found here. They also have so many varieties of noodles, instant or not. The down part is that it is quite pricey, but still acceptable since all asian products imported to europe are also quite expensive. Overall, i find it really nice and you can also sometimes find some asian cooking tour group wandering around the store, if you are interested you can sign up for an asian cooking class.
