New Comeback International新东记 (唐人杂货批发零售) is a unique Asian grocery warehouse located in San Leandro. While primarily a wholesaler, they do allow the general public to shop there as well. The store offers a wide range of Asian groceries, including Chinese cooking sauces, oils, herbs, snacks, and frozen produce. Customers can find good deals on items like coconut milk, laksa paste, and other hard-to-find Asian ingredients, often at lower prices than regular Asian supermarkets. However, the selection is not as extensive as a typical Asian grocery store. The store has an old-school, warehouse-like atmosphere, with narrow aisles and limited parking. Customers note that the place is not very modern or customer-oriented, and the service can be hit-or-miss, catering more to regular, often elderly, customers. English is spoken, but the staff may not be as attentive to newcomers. Overall, New Comeback International is a hidden gem for those seeking authentic Asian groceries at wholesale prices. It's a great resource for restaurants, large events, or those who don't mind navigating the unique shopping experience. While not a destination for the average shopper, it's a valuable resource for those in the know.
I like the Asian items from here. I wish they have more. The items and foods are a bit cheaper too. They have their own parking for customers if not street parking

It's essentially a distributor of Asian food items but are willing to sell retail. You must be able to speak/read Chinese tho. They are slightly cheaper than typical ctown retail shops so worth it if you're purchasing a lot.
