| Comment | I prefer Chung Ying as its not as busy and is closer for me. Matthews tends to only have one till on and half the customers have those flat trolleys for bulk purchases, so it can take forever to get served.
However besides a core of items each shop can have different brands. Matthews is good for the quantity of items it sells. Pity that in the past few years none of them sell particular brands anymore (the shop in the back of Chinatown was good for carrying stuff the others didn't sell ...before it closed. On that note you may want to give Lim's a shot if you're already going to the supermarkets in the town).
Oh, and I found iMart to be more expensive - similar to that shop that's near George Square. I'm assuming as its there more to cater to students than the existing population. But you'll also probably find unique products in those shops too if you're wanting more variety.
Tsk, and never been to Chans as Matthews and Chung Ying were always a shorter walk. Thanks for reminding me it existed Reddit. :) |
