good Asian grocery store around Burnsville, they have ton of Vietnamese grocery, but not a lot of Chinese groceries n not like San Francisco or New York those big Asian grocery stores, anyway for mn here is ok to get some basic grocery other than nothing. just be careful their products n some of them are already expired, also some of frozen meat wonton are not good too n are kind taste awful, we always dont buy those frozen wonton. just dont like that they dont mark price on some of products. other than that its good store to shop. today 3/2/2023@ morning went to this store again, bought most expensive star apple like over $10 for 2 pieces, the sale told me that they were ripped n ready to eat n sweet, hell no, i was regretted to buy this, let me tell you, the meat was tasted less, no sweet at, 2nd the skin wad really thick, i didn't know, so i ate little bit skin, worst thing into my mouth, made my mouth all night fell weird, no matter how many water i drink, sigh, i dont like that gal, she should honestly tell their customers, now they loose 1 one their customers, i wont buy this star apple or any stranger fruits in this store, please do not buy this star apple, you gonna be regretted. the 3rd picture you see it was star apple skin, you see how thick it is n not much meat in there, not worth...
