Chinese shops revisited

OK, so I posted some random things about the Chinese shops in Paramaribo, but a few days later I discovered totally different image of them. We stumbled on a shop, with a red carpet in front of the door (seriously!), so we went in. And WOW!!! Vegetables! A few fridges filled with vegetables and fruit presented to our eyes. What a view! :D

We were extremely happy to see them, it is very difficult to get any decent vegetables here, and for vegetarians it's a double tragedy. The shop was hugs, nice and tidy, the shop assistant was young, pretty and wore big, dark, I guess fashionable sunglasses. Yes, IN the shop. But she was smiling and moving to the rhythm of the Chinese music we could hear from the speakers. So, we bought our vegetables and wanted to buy some more stuff, but we couldn't! No labels in any Latin spelt language, not even Cyrillic or Greek, which I would manage to read. All in Chinese ideographs and the packagings were not see-through! But they looked pretty decent and the nicely organized on the shelves goods were quite expensive.

Another view at the shop

And another. And look at the decorations!

This just drew my attention. I will leave the comment to you.

So, we left the shop and walked farther, hoping to see some more nice shops. And we found some. Not as gourmet as the previous one, but decent. I walked through all the aisles, took some pictures a bit shyly, because everybody was staring at us. I went to the back of the shop to see which category of Chinese shops this one belongs to. I thing the second, which means the nice one. Pretty tidy there, a lot of nice stuff.

Sorry for the poor quality, but maybe you can see the ping-pong balls ;) How appropriate.

The back of the shop. There is a difference with the one in the previous post, isn't it?

Also poor q. But how nicely it's organized!

A cute, lucky girl got a 'Barbie' doll, from that huge pile of 'Barbie' dolls.

Isn't the name of the brand funny?? :D

...and the cherry on the cake ;)) A (poor) version or Hello Kitty or other Miffy/Nijntje

We went on... passed (only) the shop, there were guards by the door. Who knows, maybe the D&G label was original?? Just the label, of course... But the shop looked impressive.

And the display guys... mmmm... like from the Jillz (disgusting apple cider) commercial which makes me giggle each time I see it (here) - the men there are... terrible! I'm not buying it! :P

And one more thing came to my mind, from a shop that I didn't comment on here, or there, but I went there recently and spotted this - just by the door, what a nice display of coffee/creamer/sugar surrounded by those amazing ('amazing') waterfall yyy.... I don't know how to call them. Things.

And another cherry on a cake - just read the text on the packaging of those fridge magnets I bought for Aga. I read it a few times and I guess I have not enough 'brain cell' in my brain to comprehend it. I dedicate the text to Beata and Neda.

That would be it. I wrote it to counterbalance the crappy Chinese shops. I hope it worked.
