Good, but not the best and EXPENSIVE!
4 Star Rating: Recommended

It's a nice store, with tons of variety and a nice mix of Asian and American foods. Well, actually, tons of mostly Japanese products and few things from Taiwan, China, Thailand, Vietnam. It's big, but also very expensive, although there's very little to compare to in Seattle. However, the Asian supermarkets up in B.C. make Uwajimaya look like a crappy 7-11. For now it's the best we can get for selection and variety. Parking is free if you shop, that's not stated in the "pay lot" description.

Pros: Asian & Western mixed, yummy snacks, cool food court

Cons: super-inflated prices, mostly Japanese stuff

You're just not used to the expensive american things, being in canada can warp your sense of worth, being as 2 canadian dollars equal 1 american.
