If you are moving to Israel, perhaps you’ll look for Asian or Chinese supermarkets. Being an Asian myself, it is wonderful to know that Asian Store exists in Israel! The store is called “East and West” on Google Maps. The stock is limited, but you will still find basic ingredients such as seasoning, noodles, sushi rice, and other canned food. Just be aware that it is not like the typical Chinese, Korean, or Asian supermarket that you will see in the states. Let’s take a look!
Asian Store in Tel Aviv
This Asian Store is located in Carmel Market, Tel Aviv.
The location on Google Map. (Called East and West)
You will find mostly seasonings, sauces, spring roll sheets, cooking wine, canned food.. and pop tarts! (Why?!)
Dumplings are available too. From the package and the appearance of how the dumplings were assembled, I feel that it’s made by Chinese hands.
And glass noodles! 3 for 10NIS! That’s so cheap because any instant noodles costs at least 6.5NIS in Israel!
Asian Store in Jerusalem
This Asian Store is located in Mehane Yehuda. Also called “East and West” and it’s quite easy to find on Google Maps.
This is how it looks like inside. Lots of seasoning, sauces, canned food. Pretty much the same, although this store is quieter.
Official Website
They actually have a website, so you can see what’s on sale. ～ http://www.eastwest-stores.co.il
How Legit is this Asian Store?
All these products are imported from abroad. If you are familiar with Asian products, then these brands won’t be foreign to you because it’s just like everywhere else in the world. But if you want to try Chinese noodles in Jerusalem, go to “Mian Noodles“, the owner is from Hong Kong.
