PAT Central

Great selection of East Asian food and a homely grocer. They provide a invaluable service by having stock of good I've rarely seen in other shops and restaurants.

Generally the staff have issue with English but reminds me of the old Chinatown supermarkets. However it's a bit more quieter but still as busy. Their produce looks really fresh and have a large variety of meat cuts. They also have prepared items for a grab-n-go lunch. Regrettably Kimchi isn't in a lunch size portable.

If I had a better living situation, I'd shop here often just because I can get some great stuff to compliment my meal.

I love coming here and getting their taiyaki. They are usually always making fresh batches so the taiyaki tends to be fresh and hot! I personally get the one with custard as the red bean is a little heavy especially after eating a meal. One taiyaki is enough for me but you could always buy more and heat it up at home.

Good selection of Korean (and other Asian) grocery items. The taiyaki was good too! It was $3 each (cash only) and freshly made. Fillings include red bean and custard. I would have preferred it to be slightly more cooked/crispy but that might just be me!

There's an international package delivery service in the store. The staff was very kind and nice, helping me send my stuff to Korea. Also, the groceries here looked authentic and nice.

I love this grocery store and get all my favourite greens and mushrooms here! I also love the snacks and candies they sell as well as the makeup items that are usually sold on the upper level. Now and then, there will be some charming or trendy items that I'll also pick up. There's even convenient parking behind the store for those with cars.

Superb range of Asian and European fresh produce and groceries. Very good prices and stock levels. I really like the prepared food items like Spicy Tofu! I'm lucky that it's in my neighborhood, but I assume that it must draw customers from all over the GTA.

Pat Central is my happy place coz I love all things Korean! This store has a large selection of Asian goods at reasonable price.

With their endless aisle after aisle, it's truly a foodie nirvana.

From fresh meat (love their pork jowl) and produce to prepared foods such as fiery homemade kimchi, kimbap/gimbap and various banchan sides or just grabbing some soju for a party, this place exemplifies the beating heart of Korean culture.

You can find housewares ranging from adorable pots and pan for your ramen as well as other kitchenwares like Korean portable grill for your next samgyeopsal bbq.

They also sell a small variety of Kbeauty products includings serums, toners, ampoules and moisturizers.

Every time I come here I spend hours just wandering around so make sure you make a shopping list because you will most likely get sidetracked by all the colourful and exotic Korean foods on display.

My favorite Korean supermarket in downtown. Great location, great price and variety. Veggies are always fresh and you can buy a big bag of garlic, green onions and chives here. Even their NG cucumber is still very fresh.
