Finally the day has come!! I went to Wing Yip. The massive chinese grocery in Cricklewood that everyone has been talking about.
X booked a street car to go for a grocery shopping run. So the 5 of us headed over for yum cha and then brought some groceries from there.
Yum cha was actually quite good. Much better than the ones in Chinatown. London Eater wrote a review about that this place so i was quite eager to try it out and see if it is that good. The servings were pretty decent. The food was fresh. Not bad.
We ordered an additional 1/2 roast duck... there was so much meat!! The serving was way better than the ones that i have had in Bayswater or Chinatown... hmm... luckily, this place is hard to get to... if it was easy then my diet will go down the drain straight away!!
After lunch, we quickly went in to buy some groceries. I thought there was gonna be a lot more choices for korean and japanese products. But there wasn't. So i ended up buying a lot of instant noodles and drinks... and a bag of frozen prawns. The place is big and it has a lot of stuff... but i was quite disappointed cuz I couldn't find what i wanted. Oh well... need to head back out to Chinatown for my next run for asian groceries.
