Tokyo Mart in sydney

[Kuma]

Hi all,

I'm Baaaaaaaaack !

While planning my Japan 2009 trip, I found out about Tokyo Mart in Northbridge (a suburb of Sydney). I went there and WOW ! It's a combination of a Kombini, a Supaa, and a ¥100 shop. It has everything I need and more !

Here's a pic of my first booty...

cheers,

Rob.

PS: I have to get Panko next for those Korokke...

PPS: We had Okonomiyaki last night and boy do I love it !

Wah look great! How big is the store? I really have to make trip to Sydney. Does it sell fish sausage

We have Fujimart in Melbourne. It is of decent size but I cant find fish sausage . I really want to try it after reading Hiroyuki post about the sausage

I believe fujimart might be part of the same company/chain as their name and phone number also appear on the "green" (actually, it's blue) shopping bag I bought recently.

I didn't check for fish sausage, but the frozen goods section runs nearly 3/4 of the way along ther whole shop !!

I don't know how they do it, but most prices are similar to the (from memory) normal prices in Japan !

Certainly, this is meant to be a regular supermarket - nothing's overpriced. I'm guessing a lot of Japanese ex-pats do their regular weekly shopping here. It's not as expensive as, say, 5-star gourmet in Crows nest.

Edited to add: The green frozen prawns are the cheapest I've seen anywhere !

I love Tokyo Mart! Always end up buying a lot of junk food though, whenever I go there.

Great isn't it? They also have some other oriental type stuff and lots of bowls/dishes and whatnot -

What is the 5-star Gourmet in Crow's Nest? Have I missed something?

[whisks]

hasn't the 5 star gourmet in crows nest now become macro?

[Kuma]

It might have - it's been many years since I've been there.

Ah, I know the Macro well...

Thanks
