Food emporiums

11 Jul

I absolutely love going to the food emporium part of department stores whenever I get the chance to go abroad. It is amazing: x-meters of prime retail space dedicated to food! And usually a wide variety at that.

Siam Paragon’s Gourmet Market is touted to be as large as a standard football/soccer field. The variety of food they sell here is amazing. As much as I love Manila, sometimes it’s hard to try out certain recipes because it’s hard to find certain key ingredients locally. Siam Paragon even sells freshly-grated wasabi and wasabi powder. I don’t think we have that kind of variety here. 😦
