OH DJ YOU MADE ME LAWL XDDDD

IT IS NOW OPEEENNNN!

I went there tonight! It was exciting!
They are open until 10pm today -- Not sure about their weekly schedule though.

It is more of a full supermarket -- You can get regular daily items like milk, fruit and toilet paper XD

Some of the items I was excited about:

• Bubble tea
  
• Black sesame ice cream bars
  
• Lychee sherbert
  
• Kiwi flavored lamune
  
• Really cheap udon noodles
  
• Sushi rice @ $19/20lb bag
  
• Bakery/food area -- They have standard Chinese food; rice/noodles/lo mein/etc with the standard meat flavors
  
• Pineapple flavored yogurt drink
  
• Sesame oil in bulk
  
• Custard flavored daifuku mochi
  

So they are very good.
It's still not a one-stop Asian purchasing experience -- But it's close.

The bubble tea was very mediocre, so I would recommend Hong Kong Bakery or Oyishi instead.
And I couldn't find Yakisoba sauce, which I know Kim's has sometimes, but they may stock it in the future.

Add your review!

LOL -- I happen to be drinking it right now!
I was kicking myself though -- I forgot to pick up the black sesame ice cream pops... I'll have to go back again today!

BIG QUESTIONS!
1. Do they have NORMAL Calpico??
2. Do they sell magazines??
3. Do they sell the little japanese random toys and gachapon??

1) They have a WALL of Calpico.
2) I didn't notice if they have magazines.
3) I don't think they have toys.

"Calpico Wall" might be a good name for a band.

HOLY CRAP I NEED TO GET OUT THERE RIGHT NOW!!!!!!

1) They have a WALL of Calpico.

Okay, I went back again today -- More awesomness:

• They -do- have yakisoba sauce
  
• Age-senbei (interestingly enough, I still can't find standard size senbei)
  
• Melon soda
  
• Mabodofu (in the restaurant area)
  
• Iced tea with lychee
  
• Tons of furikake
  

So after that trip, the only things I can think of which it seems to lack are:
-takoyaki (which you can get at Kim's, frozen)
-taiyaki ice cream (which you used to be able to get at Kim's and at Troy's Asian market -- But I'm not sure it's possible to get anymore)
-scallion pancake -- I might have just missed this one
-banana rice candy
