T&T Supermarket Central Parkway Store — Attraction in Mississauga

I change my review from 2star to 4star. Because they are open on holiday. Before I put 2 star ( long ago) because of watery soup but they have since improve ( I have not tried the soup again). I wanted to give 4 stars because they do have huge selection, and because their sushi dept is so cheap. They have probably one of the cheapest sushi's. But the quality ( depend on flavour you get) is so so. Their sushi is cheaper than Walmart ( surprisely Walmart has good sushi but you get tiny amount at Walmart, but T&T you get big amount). The only thing is California roll at Walmart taste a little better? But Walmart sushi is expensive...7.27 for tiny California roll. At T&T, Calfornia roll seem little bigger and only 5.49 or 5.99 at T&T. Only complaint is the imitation crab ( California roll) taste little cheap. The Walmart California roll's imitation crab tastes better but you hardly get any at Walmart. So I go to Walmart for expensive sushi and T&T for cheaper sushi. Today, I got Salmon nigri combo with California roll ( you get both Calfornia Roll & Salmon Nigiri) for only 10.99 at T&T. It felt like it was big. But like I said the california roll's imitation crab tasted a little cheaper and they hardly give any or almost no avocado ( they do give cucumber) in California roll. Anyhow, i gave T&T four star because their hot table today had sweet and sour pork which was fresh and crispy ( very good) and also general tao chicken. Cook was good. Hot table looks good but I did not try everything....be careful, the hot table gets expensive. The rest of the store has interesting stuff. For example they had Rice cracker ( both black rice and regular rice cracker) which had both corn and soy bean. So you are eating protein ( because it had soybean). It was delicious, best rice or corn cracker I ever tasted. But maybe I cannot eat too much soy bean. Soy bean was concentrated in that cracker. It was delicious but i dont digest soybean very well, so I had mild stomach problem. So if you dont digest soybean dont get that special cracker. It was delicious but only for those who can digest it. They have tons of interesting stuff. Way too much Ramen noodle. The selection is huge and i got confused just looking at Ramen since I dont read chinese. I just want mention, the Nigiri & California roll combo for 10.99, I was stuffed. I was so full after eating that sushi...

Added on 24 Oct 2021: went to get Chinese fried dough “yao tiu” and realised they have increased the price from $1.99 (last bought 22 Sep 2021) to $2.49. $0.50 increase may not seem to be a lot, but when you think about a 0.50 increase on an item that’s initially $1.99, then that’s quite a lot - 25% increase! Also, in a way they made the price gap in between getting from a supermarket and a restaurant even smaller, made customers start to wonder why not getting it from specialised congee stores in the neighbourhood? From specialised congee stores, it ranges from as low as $2.50. Just thought to share with everyone. Probably there are other things with increased price too in T&T, and here is one I found on my most recent trip.

Our go to supermarket for Asian food ingredients. They have great varieties of selection and very well organised.

Their fresh meat and seafood section is especially clean and bright if you compared to other Asian supermarket.

Most of the things that we look for, we are able to find it there. Overall the staff has been friendly and helpful.

Just one time there was this quite tricky encounter though, that there was this “special price” tag on the rack for the item I was looking at, and I grabbed it, only to find out at the cashier that the special price is no longer available. I actually went back to the aisle to check and there is this tiny little font stated the promotion end date. I would have preferred them to take the special price tag away as soon as the promotion ends, otherwise it’s just too tricky for the customers. Just my two cents. So ever since that experience, I always read carefully with their tag

They provide a huge selection however the price is not necessarily cheaper than elsewhere if the item can be found at another place, especially western food ingredients.

Overall, a great place to shop!

Oh and we don’t usually buy the hot food, but tried the Portuguese egg tart recently. I must say it’s really decent, although it’s on a little sweeter side for my personal preference, but definitely able to satisfy my craving if you don’t want to...

Above my expectations. As an Asian Canadian x 40 years, PROUD 👏 to see such success achievement by T &T. CLEANINESS, PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ✔️ ✅️. ONE MINOR SHORT COMING is that I eat DAILY @ 715 Central Parkway location with food purchases below $20. It is simply the fact that I love ❤️ T&T, my one meal of a day which I can afford is my early lunch. Unfortunately, it is always below $20. FACT: I eat @ 715 Central Parkway location, 7 days a week ! But my " purchase " is below $20. Therefore, my purchases doesnot count according to the rule of T&T reward system. A friendly reminder, today, there are MANY singles struggling to survive on daily basis. We are loyal to T & T . Why the T& T reward system overlooking client situations like what I disclose ! When T & T adds up 7 days a week of lunches purchases, I truly believe Tiffany would take a good look at the weak point of T & T rewards program. Singles like myself, doesnot need to buy a list of groceries ! All we need is a great lunch purchases @ the Hot food table. As you adds up per week , it shocks 😲 you how much I spend in 1 week ( daily lunch , cannot afford DINNER ' s cost.) I was born in Toronto. Thanks to T & T, , I enjoyed every lunch @ T&T daily. I can't afford dinner. Your hot table is my kitchen , thanks 😊. Should you consider T&T reward program should based upon weekly or monthly purchase?. Singles like myself will never need to buy groceries more than $20. In contrast, I bought lunch from your T&T , around $18 per day , every day. It is heavenly if you review the reward program , integrates into " non single purchase $20" Reality is most immigrants aren't able to have a family, in GTA. Thank GOD We live another day. So, if T&T reward program wishes to apply to all purchases, obviously, a need to change to " point" system per month ! I love ❤️ T&T. 👏 proud to see your success in North America. Just not ignoring those SINGLES folks....where you T&T reward program wants to offer to the " SINGLEs" my...
