Chinatown Supermarket of Manhattan 新中華超市 — Local services in New York

They are the only ones in Manhattan Chinatown where I can find 菜籽油 caiziyou roasted rapeseed oil for Sichuan cooking. Only carry one or two kinds though, wish they would source a better cold-pressed organic brand. Still better than nothing. Also one of the only places I can find big packs (230g) of Yibin 碎米芽菜 suimiyacai.

One other thing I got to say is they have very durable, high quality bags for your...

The female employee Changle in the fruit department of this supermarket has a very bad attitude. She forces customers to buy things and if they refuse to buy, she starts swearing at them. She also keeps gossiping behind their backs and keeps saying, "Go and complain, I'm not afraid." The employees think that the boss will not punish her, so she becomes more and more excessive and swears very harshly. I hope the boss can educate the employees seriously and warn them to be careful with their words and not to affect others' mood...
