Grocery Shopping at Natural Green House 28 October 2007

Two weeks ago, I was telling Monica Leong and Mimi Quek during the Canaanland Celebration that I made sushi for the first time the night before. Mimi told me that she likes to go to this shop near Coffee Bean Damai Plaza to buy the miso paste.

Today after Canaanland Celebration, I decided to check it out myself. This half shop (the other half being a clothes shop) is called Natural Green House and it is located at Lot 11C, GF, Block C, Damai Plaza, Luyang (2 doors away from Coffee Bean).

I think most of the things sold in this shop are supposed to be organic. The lady owner is quite helpful when I asked where I can locate the rice vinegar, miso paste and konbu (dried kelp which takes the form of flat black sheets with white powder on the surface. It is used to flavour sushi rice and dashi). She doesn't sell the sushi rice.

This shop has a loyalty patronage programme. If you spend over RM50, you will a get a stamp/chop on the loyalty card. After six stamps, you will be entitled to RM30 worth of goods free.

My spending didn’t come up to RM50 and therefore I was not entitled to the programme. After I arrived home, then I remembered I didn’t buy a bottle of sake. Well, too late already.
