Lai Loi

Okay, this review will be covered in misspellings as I don’t know how to include Vietnamese alphabet marks that are meant to go both above and below vowels, and, with respect to the «d», straight through the middle. I apologize in advance.
If you’ve wondering where you may be able to find staples such as gio lua, nuoc mam, and fixings for bahn xeo, then look no more! It’s all at Lai Loi grocery store in the Deptford High Street!
Not only did I find what I wanted and needed, I found the service quite friendly. The shop is cash only, but I didn’t see the tiny sign by the till stating that until my arms were full of goodies. The gal behind the counter said that I could leave my groceries with her. (I had THE best mango picked out and didn’t want to chance losing it to another customer.) When I returned from the nearest cash point, a nice young man came up to me with my groceries, cozy in a basket, and handed them to me. Surprised, I gratefully took it, and continued on with my shopping. –not much more to say, and, besides, dinner’s ready!
Cam on, Lai Loi!
