“Flanked by pho shops and an international buffet, the Pacific Ocean Market Place in Broomfield is a virtual wellspring of all things Asian. In the scrubbed-clean, well-stocked supermarket, everything from golden brown steamed pork buns to piles of fresh durian, jackfruit, and lychees to rows of fresh Pan-Asian vegetables make shopping for Eastern specialties a snap. An absolute must in every shopping cart is a cut of house-roasted or barbecued pork and Pi Pa duck. The crispy-skinned slabs of salty pork belly, succulent whole-roasted ducks (with just a hint of star anise), and tangy, fire-engine red pork spareribs are destined to turn any dinner into a special event.” -5280 Magazine
My cookbooks
Which to get? Both are best sellers and either one is a good choice if you want to learn Korean home cooking. my first book has all the recipes for all the essential Korean pastes and sauces, but my second book Maangchi's Big Book of Korean Cooking has more recipes.

I love POM. They have very fresh produce, a wide selection from many different cultures, tons of frozen/snacks/sauces/spices, plus wonderful prepared/cafe foods. Everyone is very friendly to me, a non-Asian. I love getting lunch here on workdays!
