I am fortunate enough to work less than 5 minutes from a T&T grocery store. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this chain, its is an Asian grocery store chain that was recently purchased by Loblaws. They are well known for their excellent produce and fish counter. Along with groceries they have a lot of prepared foods, along with a wide selection on sushi. The store was extra bussling due to the approaching Chinese New Years.

I always enjoy shopping at T&T its one of the most inspiring grocery stores. There are so many products i've never seen, or have read about and had no idea what they looked like raw. I usually have a couple things in particular i'm after when i go, but a lot of the things i buy i just get inspired by what is there. This is particularly true of the vegetables. Today i bought a few things i love, and others i've wanted to try.

My grocerties, long beans, king oyster musrooms, bok choy, Enoki mushrooms, miso paste, shirataki noodles, asian eggplant, tofu and purple yams! And of course i picked up some kimchi!
And here was a wall of soy sauces! Its baffling to know which ones to buy, i usually look for a lower sodium version.
Well get ready for some interesting recipes featuing all the things i purchased, it might be a bit of an experiement, but i think i'll enjoy it.
