T&T Supermarket, Canada’s largest Asian grocery chain, will open its first Washington state (and U.S.) location on December 5th in Factoria. The 76,000-square-foot space was most recently occupied by Walmart. I’ve been eagerly anticipating the opening of this new location ever since it was first announced over a year ago. Since childhood, every trip to Vancouver, BC has included a visit to the T&T in Richmond, whether we were staying in the city or heading up to Whistler.

To celebrate the grand opening, T&T Supermarket will host cultural performances and offer giveaways, including FREE $10 T&T gift cards for the first 500 customers. More information about the Bellevue store grand opening here.

The T&T Bellevue store will feature a diverse range of food options and services that set T&T apart from other supermarkets:

• Restaurant Quality Food at Supermarket Prices: Customers can enjoy a self-serve hot food bar featuring authentic Asian dishes. The Kitchen is known for specialties such as Peking Duck, Papa Crispy Chicken, a BBQ station, and a Sushi Counter.
• Made-to-Order Street Food: Savor the flavors of Asia with freshly made Chinese crepes and Taiwanese-style rice rolls.
• Bakery Delights: T&T bakery offers over 150 varieties of freshly baked bread and 50+ desserts and pastries, including viral treats like Napoleon Portuguese Egg Tarts, Mango Pomelo Swiss Rolls, and Lava Mochi Puffs.
• Exclusive Asian Spirits: Explore a selection of over 750 types of wine and spirits, specializing in Korean soju and Japanese sake. This location boasts the most extensive variety of Asian spirits of any T&T store in North America.
• T&T Private Label Products: Shoppers can enjoy over 200 T&T Private Label products, including customer favorites such as juicy pork soup dumplings (Xiao Long Bao), Korean kalbi marinade, green onion pancakes, and seaweed snacks.
• Holiday Gifting Made Easy: As the holidays approach, T&T will offer a curated selection of premium fruit box, trendy toys, beauty sets, and items perfect for every family member.

North end folks will also get a location in Lynnwood sometime next year (slated for summer 2025).
