This is a supermarket with Chinese characteristics. The products in it are almost all Chinese products, whether it is tableware, cooking utensils, vegetables, snacks, condiments, spices, etc. There are also many daily necessities of Chinese traditional culture such as It is said that the burning paper used to commemorate the dead, the square table used in China, etc. is very comprehensive. This store is an old brand opened in a city with the most Chinese people. He has chain stores in many cities where Chinese people live. It is very good. Many Chinese Love this store and come here to buy things, its like coming to China

Fun place to browse around. From mah Jong sets and tables to flower pots to cast iron woks. Shitake mushroom and dried scallops come in different prices for different grades. Many hard to get stuff like liquorice powder. Recommended.

This is the New T S Emporium, which is bigger than the old one that is only three blocks or so away. It carries a good collection of Chinese herbal medicine. Also sells a large variety of Chinese grocery. It is often packed because the display racks are put close to each others. Prices are competitive but there are only two main cashiers so it takes time to pay. Good place for quick convenient grocery shopping

This TSH is bigger than the old one (2 blocks away). It has more herbs and supplements than I expected when I got there. The price is certainly in the med-range. I like the herbal tea they are selling there while I can get almost everything I want.One down side is even the store is big, the rows/ columns are narrow. Under this COVID pandemic, it may not be a good choice to stay there for too long due to the crowds inside

I recommend this if you are shopping for Chinese kitchen ware and plates. Also has a lot of herbs and a variety of other Chinese stuff… prices are reasonable.

Go there for teas, ginseng, dried shrimps, and dried scallops. They also have some interesting groceries from China or Asian fruits and veggies. Asian store layout. Love their teas so go there every so often to replenish.

Dont buy any cookware from this place. Customer services is extremely terrible. They only have a few days return policy and if everything still untouched and brand-new. Customer satisfaction is not on their list. Just a terrible place to shop.

I ordered several items from Tak Shing Hong because I thought it is a reputable merchant. When I received my items, one of them had a 3-4 inches cut on the bag of dried shrimp. I immediately contact Tak Shing Hong and sent them pictures as requested. However, their customer service rep keeps giving nonsensical excuses and speculations why there is a cut instead of trying to provide returns or any reasonable resolutions. They keep ignoring my responses and asking the same questions over and over again. Finally I had to file a dispute with the credit card company. Their behavior is akin to a small backwater grocery store with no concept of customer services.

One of the few old fashion Chinese Emporiums in the San Gabriel valley that specializes selling Chinese goods and medicines. This store is like the Chinese Trader Joe’s.Evolved from a TCM( Traditional Chinese Medicine) stores to a full fledged grocery stores, this chain super market has everything that is Chinese here. From herbal medicines to traditional Chinese spices, you can find them all here. They even have a full time Chinese medicine doctor on duty here.As the Chinese New Year is just around the corner, we came here to shop for Chinese goods for the new year that we can only find here.To cook some of the traditional Chinese dishes, we need some unique items that only TS Emporium carries. For instance, we are planing to cook an authentic Cantonese clay pot dish with Cantonese sausage and preserved pork. With ingredients from other Chinese super markets where they offer only the generic brand that are most made in the US, we can not bring out truly Cantonese flavors in the dish. Here, we can buy the imported sausage and the preserved pork from Guangdong. We know the end result of our dish will be tasting awesome and authentic.In addition, We were able to get a few big red lanterns for our house entrance to add some festivities to the occasion. Despite the pandemic, I think this year’s Chinese New Year celebration will be special with all the goodies we got from TS Emporium.
