Chinese supermarket on Lisle Street in Chinatown.

They stock all the usual Chinese supermarket staples, including vegetables and frozen stuff. There's a small selection of Japanese food too.

Notable items sold here include century eggs (thousand-year-old eggs) and XO sauce (Kwong Cheong Thye brand as of May 2009), the latter being kept behind the checkout counter as it's quite expensive. According to a comment on Fuchsia Dunlop's blog, they also have Sichuan Dan Dan Seasoning Co brand chilli bean paste (douban jiang), which Fuchsia recommends.

Kitchenwares are downstairs. They also have a big cash-and-carry-style branch in Greenwich.

Accessibility: One step up to get in. The aisles are narrow and crowded, and some of the stock is down a flight of stairs.
