There certainly seems to be a boom in Asian markets in Plano lately. This one is next to the perpetually awesome Jasmine Thai.

Pretty disappointing, though, from my first visit. The produce looked old, wilted, and beat up. There's also already a strong seafood smell when you walk in, and it's been open less than a month?

I guess the cool thing is that it's a Korean market, mostly. There's a whole section of kim chi and lots and lots of dried fish and meats. Still, it makes me appreciate how spot-on the Asia World Market just a couple blocks over and up at Legacy and Chase Oaks is.
