Staten Island has a population of about 500K, let's say it's 250K people of working age. There are about 50K cops+firefighters in NYC. Who are the other 200K people living there? Garbagemen and nurses?

they do have those options if we’re talking about this hmart

I saw raw milk and thought he was trolling, but this cheesedick is actually serious. Lmao

you’re suggesting they carry a lot of organic produce?

I'm living in Bushwick in a 2k/month studio and just got a new job that will pay me double my current salary. I'm 31 and I like a lot about the neighborhood but wouldn't mind moving up to a slightly nicer area when my lease expires in the fall.

Any suggestions for where I could find a 2.5k/month studio/1BR (something along those lines) that isn't a shit-hole and is in a fun area with cool people, parks, etc. ? It feels like every other neighborhood I check there aren't many options below 3.5k/month, and I don't want to spend all the extra money i'm making on rent.

eggs aren’t produce

and that’s free range which is different than pasture raised

That’s not my experience with the H Mart where I live. Maybe you have a lemon.

You’re hilarious

no it doesn’t

you can’t buy a regular ribeye steak there and definitely not one that is grass fed. they have thin beef cuts for korean dishes nothing like a normal grocery store at all

and they have very little organic produce options most of it is conventional

And fucking delicious

I don’t actually

They have an entire aisle dedicated to instant noodles it’s actually a little intimidating lol my arteries get nervous when I walk by

I find the quality is much better.

people want a healthy organic grocery store, not some specialty store that doesn’t have 90% of what regular people want to buy

limited organic produce options, no regular beef cuts, barely any cheese/dairy, massively overpriced

“so awesome”

What the hell hahaha, Ramen and Kimchi?

How did I not see that bit?

Edit - had to keep clicking parent comment, apologies poster, I think I had clicked into a specific reply when scrolling. Turns out you didn’t have to scroll that far for certain perspective. I would def agree with your comment, my bad.

Who posted that bit?

I like H mart but I find their produce section overpriced compared to Chinatown. Am Asian btw.

Only the new queens location is well priced tbh - most likely due to the super high competition

which hmart do you go to? the ones in queens are well priced. what items do you think over-priced? the only things that I think higher priced that regular supermarkets is the beef and pork which are all much higher quality so its going to be more pricey.
