Remember I posted about the Latin Grocery?(here)
Well, today daughter 2 and I traveled to Japan.
We were looking for unusual Asian fruit (yeah I am weird that way) and just like the adventure of looking in foreign grocery stores and markets I guess. Went to one I'd been to before, sort of a pacific-Asian / Filipino place, with seafood, all sorts of strange frozen confections, including "Cheese" Ice Cream- think I'll pass on that one!

Here, we hit the mother lode. It's a Japanese grocery store called Marukai, and honestly, I could have happily stayed there all day roaming the aisles...here are just some of the great finds we uncovered:
 |
| The pommelo, some noodles, and some greens. |
 |
| A set of three for 1.59! |
 |
| Mochi buns from Japan |
 |
| The packaging is so pretty! |
 |
| Beautiful Sake bottles |
 |
| Baby Octopus |
 |
| Heretofore mentioned Pizza Crackers |
 |
| Giant Taro 2 lbs for a dollar! |
If you are in SoCal, visit

Make it a Great Day!
