I commend it for serving the ethnic population there and for those who are open-minded, eclectic, progressive or are interested in sampling other cultures. Actually, it's definitely not the best or the most interesting but carolinians are boring, mostly stuck in their ways people and that's why this is the most ""exciting"" ethnic store around. LOL There are some amazing ethic grocers that put whole foods and the highest tech shopping centers to shame. It is a ""shame"" because of southern or narrow-minded mentalities a store such as this is the most interesting thing around for ethnic minorities in the area! You know after reading the reviews which were mostly negative, I decided to check it out. Well, it's one of the best asian grocers around the area. it's well stocked and clean with a nice variety of choices. It's nothing like markets in la, ny or houston but for a still mentally backward and bigoted state as nc is, it's a progression. I have always been disappointed and dissatisfied living in north carolina because there is an underlying prejudice that is still a very southern mentality even for those who have migrated to the city. it's tiring and aggravating. just by these reviews i realize why i disliked nc so much. arrogant locals who think their city is more than what it is and they themselves as well. it's a laugh! that is why international markets like h-mart do not open up there. the state and it's locals are not ready for it. Comparing the electic, progressive viewpoints of even chicagoans when i reviewed the h-mart in niles, illinois reviews versus this one brought it all back home to me. god, I have to move back there because my company is sending me back to north carolina again for a year but it's the most depressing, boring, unvibrant, unimaginative, conservative, psuedo-sophisticated metropolitan city in the fact it's really not progressive at all but at it's foundation still has a southern stick up it's @ss! oh I want to spank them.
