Chinese supermarket

Going to the Chinese supermarket tomorrow. Haven't been in ages! Definitely going to the café and getting low salt soy sauce. Definitely not getting rice, as I've got plenty and it's hardly any cheaper. Looking other ideas please......

We always stock up on goldfish curry paste as it is miles cheaper than Tescos. We also regularly buy Skyflake crackers, vac-packed udon noodles and shichimi togarashi seasoning.

Pomelo and giant onions from the veg section, and pretty much anything when they've just had a bakery delivery!

Endless varieties of Pocky for DD to spend her pocket money on. They also do pork floss which is like a pulled pork candy floss. Sounds bizarre but I love it!

I buy the rice paper wraps for making vietnamese summer rolls, Lee kum kee black bean sauce (it's much more concentrated and not as sweet as supermarket brands) and kikkoman soy sauce in litre bottles which is much better value than the little glass bottles.

Giant bottles of soy sauce, pak choi, and those frozen bags of dumplings if their offering extends to dim sum / gyoza.
