Food Story Registration Begins Nov 23 until Dec 16

The Idea! 

What would it be like, if all the little goodies, that we create in our lovely kitchen, could be shared with others? What if the scrumptuous homemade pralines, marmelade, cupcakes, or spicemix were to be remarkably decoratively packed for a trip, a few kilometers away, so that it would create happiness for someone?!
Our thoughts: It would be amazing!
And by paying it forward, by sharing with others, we, at the Asian Supermarket World Foods and Imports, want to create and foster this happiness: The idea to share and to connect us!
How it works: Every 3 months, a theme will be announced on our blog. Everyone who would like to create [more] happiness, can register per Email, and you will receive an Exchange Partner at a fixed date. And so, the creation of happiness begins: cook, bake, stir, steam, and what ever your heart desires, snap a photo from your creation and send it away decoratively packed. And please post your photos on your blogs, if you don't have one, send us your photo and we will post it on our blog! And through our happiness creation, we could collect all our photos on Pinterest.
Join us in creating happiness? We would love to connect with you!

How does it all work?
Register here!

Welcome! Bhutanese Community


We would like to extend our warm welcome to the ever growing Bhutanese Community in Lethbridge, AB. We have had the fortunate opportunity to carry a selection of food that the Bhutanese have requested and we continue to expand on this, over the past couple of years. 

Our father Louis Luu, the owner and founder of the Asian Supermarket, along with our mother Thao; had initially opened the business solely because there was a lack of a food selection from our own country, Vietnam, back in the 1980's, where an influx of Vietnamese Boat People came to Canada and were resettled all over. We understand and believe that ethnic food is important no matter where we are: food connects and comforts individuals near and far.

We are happy to continue to support the Bhutanese Community, and please feel free to let us know what other selections that are important for the Bhutanese diet. 

Thank you!
Patricia
