Moving to Hartford: Further Explorations
February 6, 2012 at 10:07 I have explored more of Hartford and its surrounding towns. I find it amusing that people here mean Hartford when they say Hartford rather than the entire MSA. When I say in Hartford I mean everything from New Britain to Manchester and Windsor down to Wethersfield.
Finally made it to A Dong market. This was a pretty good Asian market and had a big selection of foods. There were fish and meats which were good as wells as Asian vegetables that you would typically find. The vegetables were fresh and a lot more reasonably priced than other stores in the area. I got Burdock root and Daikon at very good prices. They had a large selection of soy sauces but not the spectrum of different Japanese types that are important for different types of cooking. Overall, it seems to be the place to grab your Asian groceries.
A Dong is also not far from the closest comic book store I can find, Eye Opener. Eye Opener isn't far from A Dong. It can be a little difficult to find as it is on the side street. It is a small shop but they seem to have everything you might be looking for or should be able to order it if not. I'm mostly interested in DC's New 52, and you can pick them up there.
Only thing left on the list is a mechanic. I think I found one in Canton.
