“ i go in for rice, spices/chili oils, ramen, dumplings, and the hot food bar. for $10 your box is overflowing with food. literally 3 meals. tough to beat that. I go around 1030a, hot bar is ready! Everyone had their coffee :) and the ladies show me the GOOD stuff to buy. I'll see an item, yeah ok i guess that will work. But Old Lady will say in broken english, no you want this one. and she's always right! trust me, and her! great place. ”
“ I came in to get some fruit and they did have what I was looking for. Found Longans, Mangos, Rambutans and Persimmons. I only wish some of these fruits were available year-round. The ladies at the registers are always nice to chat with. ”
“ Good service. Has all the things I was looking for.hot food section was a little under par from what I'm used to. ”
“ One thing I like about this brand is that they always keep a good inventory of what you're looking for. I love e the plentiful options, affordable prices and ethical seafood and meat selection. My go to place for tea, ramen noodles, seasons and fresh meats ”
“ Adding my new finds and updated stuff. Like always when i am in the area. I love stopping by, but this time it was kinda accidental. I wanted to buy fluffy samishes from Zimo bakery next door. But a las they close on Mondays. Found out when me and a bunch of strangers walked ip to it n started to drop F bombs lol sense i know MD sells buns n other bakery goods. It was enough to get me to get in. Noticed they have a huge selection on mushrooms now and I found Royal Trumpets!! (Also known as king oysters) I got two packages of them! Just $4.35 a pop. Huge meaty mushrooms. If u didn't know; slice them like bacon thick, then marinate them in sou sauce, spices and stake sauces of your locking. Let them sit on that over night and then. I like to slow smoke em on the grill off set from the fire. They come out like "Vegan Bacon" they are very chewy compared to portabela mushrooms. Probably could string them to n use as noodles. They are one of my favorites mushrooms to use to simulate meat. I love learning new techniques. I like to be informed n have the skills to romance any type of person lol im omnivore n for some weird reason vegans come out of the bushes for this T lady. Lol i can make Ghost chicken tacos. (Ghost as in no chicken). Moving on, they removed the iced fish section and replaced it with a nice cooler. Everything that used to hang out on ice? Is now prepackaged and priced. No wait line no having to wait on cleaning it. U just pick it n walk away. They still have the live seafood area. I noticed they had a huge selection of clams. They brought in new varieties of fish. Today i noticed they had Catfish whole. If you you are "fishing" n out partying instead? Not a bad idea to bring in one of these babies to show to your fam and cover your butt lol every time i see whole lobster its like $9.99 and i pick them. I am pretty sure the love ones may be more than that. I do like their live seafood options. Some days they have live blue crabs and today i got lucky and found live Crawfish! I bought 2lbs at $4.99 per lbs! I did the one thing you should never do with food! I fell in love with them, stopped at a pet store n bought what i needed to keep em alive. They are now adopted n living la vida loca in my bathroom aquarium. I will obviously try to weed them down. Huge recommendation to my fishermen locals! Buy em put em in a tank and then take what u need when hitting open water. They are the best for fishing! I will keep 4-10 i have plenty of tanks to keep them. The rest i may give them a second chance of life. I can always build that pond i always wanted. These babies help keep the algae down in ponds n eat any neighbors that kick it. Huge shout out to the gentleman that helped me with the crawfish. He made sure that every crawfish was healthy and alive before putting in my bag. It is a huge kindness n awesome job from his part. ”
“ I was like a kid in a candy store. Huge variety of all types of meat and seafood. Veggies are cheaper than other grocery stores and are in larger quantities. So many different types of food and snacks to try if you are accustomed to eating American snacks. They also have a lot of teas and herbs ”
“ It's called Oriental Market, but it's only Japanese items. The one thing I wanted was barley tea and they didn't have it... so I bought soju instead. I've been eager to try this alcohol. Beyond that, tons of shrimp and eel. ”
“ I haven't been to MD Oriental Market in a very long time. I would visit every now and then to look for medicinal teas, produce, and spices. I actually stopped going because at one time the odor from the fish market permeated throughout the store and was too overpowering for me. It seemed a little better this time. Maybe because I had my mask on, or maybe they have a better ventilation system. It seemed more confined to the fish market corner this time so my experience today was much better. They do have fresh fish if that's your thing. Many live sea creatures in fish tanks which is great. It's a very popular place to shop for all things Asian. They really do have a huge selection, and it's great that they also have a hot food area in the back. It all looked great. I also noticed they had many different Asian buns with different fillings as well. The aisles are very organized with clear signage. Everything is spread out. They only had one flavor (dark green tea) of Japanese KitKat bars today, but I think there is a shortage right now. I did find a few Filipino candies and some wafers that I wanted to try. The cashier was very nice and friendly. I'd go back again if I can't find what I need at the Asian market that is closer to me. I also want to try some of the wonderful food from the hot bar. It all looked really good. ”
“ I have been meaning to go to this market for a minute for typical grocery stores are just closer. Finally made it here and glad that I did. This place has all your favorite asian snacks, cuisines, and even fresh produce such a veggies, fruits, fish, crab, and more. (FYI, even fish and crab swimming in tanks) There is an asian "restaurant" in the back, I am not sure what was served. I spotted my favorite: thai teas (but in a can) and a variety of milk teas in a bottle. Sadly, didn't get a chance to snap pictures but will on my next return. I went specifically for my dog! That's right, my dog. He is on a raw diet and this Asian market had all types of meats and organs for him. I spent $23 and came out with so much: pack of duck heads, pack of chicken gizzards, pack of kidneys, two packs of liver, four frozen wild-caught mackerel, a pack of chicken feet, and chicken hearts! Not giving five stars because thought they require mask and even have a trash can to dispose of mask and gloves as you leave, I did not see anyone cleaning and sanitizing the hand baskets and shopping carts, so just slightly sketch out about that. ”
