Asian food store opens

The Peninsula's first Asian food retailer has opened for business in Umina.

The grocery carries items from many countries including Japan, Korea, Thailand, malaise, Fuji, Philippines, India and China.

The range includes Pacific Island food to meet a strong demand.

Proprietor Patrick Singh said: "We deal with a wide variety of wholesaler and are keen to source anything that people want us to stock for them.

"We have fresh Asian vegetables and all of our other goods are pre-packaged.

"Many Peninsula residents have been pleased that we are here as we have saved them travel time to Hornsby."

The business trades seven days a week and is located in Trafalgar Ave, Umina.
