We usually will go to Cheng's on Sundays since they are open until 8:00 p.m. They have a much bigger selection than Kong Fui. Kong Fui is a much nicer store, but they didn't have anything that we needed - as Amy said, their selection is not that great.

??????Why would someone spend all that money to open a new supermarket and not have a good selection of items.Does anyone know this owner, he has a great location and I would hate to see it close.

no randi

the store where the black hog once stood is still "on paper".
in january the place was bulldozed and cleared.
in august it looked the same.....don't know where the progress is now?

the other new/completed store is on palm beach rd, heading towards wacky wahoo and lindas pancakes.

Still an empty, bulldozed lot when we were there two weeks ago!

coming from the high rise area heading towrds the downtown, turnleft at the traffic lights where the aruban resort is located.

coming from the low rise area, turn right at the lights where the mini golf/ black hog "used to be located".

chengs is located about a mile on the right....just before the turn to madame janette's street.
