Reply to comment by pythonQu in H Mart to Open in Former Rite Aid Space on Amsterdam by L0v3_1s_War

Oh, I never ever patronize Whole Foods. The vibe in those places bothers my soul. My only issue with the H mart in my location is that it did not fill the void of what was lost. It only serves a sliver of a much more diverse population; nor are the prices competative with the rest of my neighborhood. Theres also plenty of more affordable Asian cusine 'mom and pops' to shop in for my needs.

Yea. I mean I'll check out Whole Foods like once a month for my produce and cheese fix. Being Asian American, I have to source my grocery runs from a variety of markets.

When I don't feel like making the trek to Manhattan but in need of my Asian groceries for one stop shopping, it'll be J Mart & nearby Asian grocers. Some of their items are overpriced. It is what it is.
