A Beginner’s Guide to Building a Japanese Pantry in Portland | Eater Portland

"On SE 82nd Street, Fubonn Shopping Center is the closest thing Portland has to an Asian shopping mall—its website even claims it’s the largest Asian shopping center in Oregon. To get to the supermarket you walk past a beauty salon, a sewing and alteration shop, and a bubble-tea place; inside, the focus is Chinese food, but it’s a massive store with a lot of Japanese noodles, condiments, and snacks (though not as many brand options as H Mart or Uwajimaya). Fubonn carries a wide range of pantry essentials and tofu brands like Tacoma Tofu, even if it doesn’t stock Ota Tofu." - Jade Yamazaki Stewart
