T&T Supermarket, Toronto, ON

T&T Supermarket opened a store downtown a couple months ago so Gord and I checked it out this afternoon.
To many Canadians, T & T Supermarket is the embodiment of the taste of Asia. It differs from other supermarkets by featuring many uniquely Asian food products not available in other retail outlets.
Shopping at T & T is like taking a journey through parts of Asia where one finds fresh mangoes from the Philippines, crispy snacks from Japan, sauces from Hong Kong, noodles from Taiwan, spices from Thailand and a variety of flavours from China and other Asian countries.

It's located on Cherry Street ... looking towards downtown from the store:


The selection is huge ... lots of stuff that we can buy at No Frills, where we usually shop, but also lots of stuff that was really weird to me. Like red bean and yam ice cream bars.



The cakes looked delicious! 


Then the security guard came over and asked me to stop taking pictures. Oops!

Not allowed to take picture? Didn't you told him you where a journalist and about the freedom of the press? :-)

Btw: Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

you finally went. You know what, red bean and yam popisles are really yummy!

Did you know that they were open on Monday when everything else is closed? That's the beauty of it!

I can't believe they didn't want you taking photos.
