Newark Farmers Maket

Newark Farmers Market is a great place for both foreigners and locals.
Their vegetables and fruits are very cheap, and they have great lineups for import products.



Since the owner is Korean,  Asian food section is particularly rich in recent months.

So many seasonings
Gobou root and gingers 
Tofu is cheap here
Udon noodle,  deep filed tofu is my favorite!






Not only Asian foods, but also other international foods are here!!



Of course Mexican foods is major in this shop. They also have great selection of Indian spices.
Vegetables and fruits are very cheap, but you need to be careful when you chose.
Some are not fresh, you must have a good eye to chose products.

Fruits and vegetables are piled



For me, the day I go shopping for Newark Farmers Market is a big cooking day.
Because the vegetables and meats are better to be cooked as soon as possible.

Sometime, I put some vegetable just into refrigerator and 3 days later,  the mold was on the tomato and cucumber.
Many products are cheaper than other shops, but Not everything.
You need to compare each by yourself, especially Commodities long shelf-life.
But I can say Bananas are always the best price here.

Lily Asian Cuisine Suhsi&Gril @ Kennet square

Lily Asian Cuisine is a great place to have fancy sushi.
They have all you can eat buffet on every Tuesday.
About $15 for lunch, $25 for dinner.


It's always clouded at Tuesday lunch time.
If it's possible you should go earlier before noon.
Because not only the restaurant, but also parking around there also will be busy at lunch time.
At Kennet square, you will find many meter parking on the street.
Don't forget to prepare quote coins when you visit Kennet square.

Their rolls are very beautiful and interesting.
I've never seen these kinds of roll sushi in Japan.

The roll in the picture is "Rainbow roll".

The roll left side is "tempura roll".

This time, I went with Japanese, American, French, Brazilian, Chinese friends.
They all liked the sushi here.

Includes tip and tax, each of us paid $19.
In the state,  it's always difficult for me to eat my fill.
However, you can definitely get more than you paid here.
