The market also has its own parking lot in the back as well, free of charge, which I would recommend using since it also happens to be located in one of the more rough areas...

All things canned or dried/packaged. With a decent variety of asian kitchen tools and utensils as well.
The atmosphere is clean and organized. The staff are helpful and courteous. And the prices are reasonable and competitive.
Some seasonal items are seasonally available. But, if you can't find it here, you will have a hard time finding it...
