#13 Experience 10 new things in Provo (5/10): go to an Asian Market

I see Asian markets all over Provo, and I really wanted to go inside one.  So I waited until I had an excuse (making mango sticky rice).  And the one I ended up going to is literally called "Asian Markets"!


It was everything I dreamed of.  Skinny aisles.  Tons of brightly colored packaging.  Neon colors everywhere.  I quickly found everything I wanted: glutinous rice, mangos, yellow curry paste, a steam basket, and miso soup.


This outing was immediately followed by going to Rancho Markets (the local Mexican grocery), which was also an awesome experience.  It's amazing how just shopping at an ethnic grocery store can help me feel connected to other cultures.  Love it.
