Previously known as Ngan Hung <small>[http://flickr.com/photos/kake_pugh/2849764296/ photo]</small>, it changed its name some time around 2009-2010 to Dat Cang, possibly in connection with the early-2010 opening of Dat Cang restaurant a couple of doors along. According to [http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/d73e85eaefd45a42f4915b693370c094/compdetails Companies House data], Dat Cang is simply the new name of the old Ngan Hung company. However, we haven't visited since the name change, so the comments below may be out of date.
The fridge at the back has fresh tofu, as well as a small range of fresh vegetables and herbs. There's a reasonably sized instant noodle section, plus curry pastes, soup bases, etc. Mock duck, mock chicken, and mock abalone are available in tins in the left-hand section of the shop. There's also a small selection of snack foods near the door.

Oriental supermarket in Deptford, just opposite the John Evelyn pub. It's not a particularly exciting example of the genre, but presumably it does the job for those who live in the area.

The fridge at the back has fresh tofu, as well as a small range of fresh vegetables and herbs. There's a reasonably sized instant noodle section, plus curry pastes, soup bases, etc. Mock duck, mock chicken, and mock abalone are available in tins in the left-hand section of the shop. There's also a small selection of snack foods near the door.

Although the space is quite large, it's relatively sparsely used. There's also a mix of Asian and British foods (e.g. John West tuna).

Note that despite the opening hours on the door, it was closed the last couple of times Kake went past on a Saturday (4pm in September 2008, 12:30pm in October 2008), so we're not sure what's going on there.

Last visited by Kake, 9 September 2008. Opening hours taken from sign on door, September 2008.
