TS Emporium

I recommend this if you are shopping for Chinese kitchen ware and plates. Also has a lot of herbs and a variety of other Chinese stuff… prices are reasonable.

One of the few old fashion Chinese Emporiums in the San Gabriel valley that specializes selling Chinese goods and medicines. This store is like the Chinese Trader Joe’s. Evolved from a TCM( Traditional Chinese Medicine) stores to a full fledged grocery stores, this chain super market has everything that is Chinese here. From herbal medicines to traditional Chinese spices, you can find them all here. They even have a full time Chinese medicine doctor on duty here. As the Chinese New Year is just around the corner, we came here to shop for Chinese goods for the new year that we can only find here. To cook some of the traditional Chinese dishes, we need some unique items that only TS Emporium carries. For instance, we are planing to cook an authentic Cantonese clay pot dish with Cantonese sausage and preserved pork. With ingredients from other Chinese super markets where they offer only the generic brand that are most made in the US, we can not bring out truly Cantonese flavors in the dish. Here, we can buy the imported sausage and the preserved pork from Guangdong. We know the end result of our dish will be tasting awesome and authentic. In addition, We were able to get a few big red lanterns for our house entrance to add some festivities to the occasion. Despite the pandemic, I think this year’s Chinese New Year celebration will be special with all the goodies we got from TS Emporium.

Go there for teas, ginseng, dried shrimps, and dried scallops. They also have some interesting groceries from China or Asian fruits and veggies. Asian store layout. Love their teas so go there every so often to replenish.

Fresh home grown veggies with no pesticides used (some still has little worms). Good prices on most items. We often come here for their fresh veggies. Very small selection and sold out fast. This place looks outdated. Parking is bad on weekends. They close so early. Their targeted customers are either homemaker or old retired people.
