The Asiana Market on West Union Hills Drive in Glendale. There is also a location on Dobson Road in Mesa.
Even if you don't cook, walking the aisles of one of these 10 ethnic markets is a pretty awesome way to spend an afternoon — stocking up on unusual, ready-to-eat foods like Korean steak-flavored Cheetos, lunching on fresh shawarma sandwiches, or picking up specialty ingredients — and it's a sure way to make you feel a million miles away.
