V & K Asian Market — Local services in Charlotte

I stood in line for 30 minutes. There was two registers. One operated by the older lady and one by the younger. The younger was closed when I got in line and was number 3. Then when the younger one's register opened up, there was now 6 people behind me. Since there was not a lot of space in the store, I was not able to move over to the younger one's register when she opened up and called for the next person in line. Instead she just took whoever was in front of her. At this point I was next in line, but she (pretty sure it was the owner) did not take command of the chaos within the store and I was stuck waiting for the older lady to take 25 minutes to ring up the person in front of me while the 6 people behind me were able to complete their transactions and leave before me.

A lot of the reviews here are for the Laotian food truck that is parked next to it. That food truck, JP Food to Go, has a separate page.

The market has a lot of good stuff available. We stopped in to check it out after getting food from the food truck.

We didn't need anything in particular, so we just picked up some snacks while we were browsing. We've really enjoyed all of them.

It's not a big market, but it's definitely worth checking out for...
