I found shopping in IKEA is really tiring especially for people who live in Pudong. First we need to travel all the way from East to the West. And then non-stop walking inside the store till really starving.

And then I found I have no choice but eat at the crazy crowded IKEA Cafe because there is nothing (no restaurants, no shops etc) around this huge yellow and blue building!

But today I found something new. After I finished my first round Christmas shopping in IKEA, I saw this dark red building behind it with three big Chinese characters (每家玛).

Hm… supermarket! I like it and I don’t have to eat the Swedish meatball today!

The whole floor is divided into three sections, food court, fashion and supermarket.

The food court is like the Mega Bite in Carrefour with a few different food booths including pizzas, coffees, donuts, noodles etc.

When I entered the supermarket, I found almost half of the products are from Korea.

Then I was told by the staff Mega Mart is the first supermarket invested by the big Korean Company, Nong Shim in Shanghai. (if you like instant noodles, you must know this brand with its famous hot flavour).

Of course loads of Nong Shim Noodles in Mega Mart

Of course the prices are  higher than normal supermarket because those products are imported. But I did find some Korean food which I haven’t seen in other supermarkets in Shanghai.

I also found a Mannings in the mall (a Hongkong health and beauty shop, Watsons in another name).
