Sometimes, I really feel like Hmart is going to take over the world someday. They are one of the largest Asian supermarket chains in America. In Flushing alone there are 5 locations, three of which are along Northern Boulevard. The newest location is called Hmart Northern 144 and it's within blocks from Hmart 141 and Hmart 156. Luckily for us, the stores are numbered to differentiate from one another!
I don't quite get why they would open another Hmart so close to the others but I guess there's a demand for it. The store grand opening was last week.
This location does not have its own parking lot that I could find, so it was a bit of a hassle trying to find parking along busy Northern Boulevard. As soon as you go in they take your temperature. My first impression of the store was that it was small but very smartly laid out. They position the first three or four aisle in such a way that traffic only flows in one direction. And then, after the fourth aisle, you will see the sealfood section, the frozen sections, pre made food, etc.
The layout is not conducive for a quick grocery run as it makes you walk through several aisle first but very smart of the store since most people end up buying more items, in my opinion.
The prices are comparable with other Hmart locations. Since it just opened up, the store is very clean and organized. If I'm in the neighborhood, and can find parking, I would definitely come back.
