Bayon Market

I go hear to buy both fresh and dry peanuts. The place smells so bad. I think this is because it is a small space without proper ventilation. And they are on the pricey side.

Shopping at Southeast Asia Groceries has been an absolute delight! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by friendly staff and the familiar aroma of authentic Asian ingredients that instantly reminded me of home. The store is well-organized and spotless, making it easy to find everything I needed — from fresh produce to pantry staples. One of the highlights of my visit was discovering their high-quality papaya and rice noodles. The papaya was perfectly ripe, sweet, and fragrant — ideal for making Thai papaya salad (som tum). The texture was just right, not too soft, and tasted incredibly fresh. Their rice noodles were equally impressive — soft yet durable, perfect for dishes like Pad Thai or Pho. I could tell these were imported directly from trusted Southeast Asian brands because of the authentic taste and texture. Beyond those favorites, I was amazed by the store’s wide selection of sauces, herbs, snacks, and frozen foods from Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines. Everything was reasonably priced, and the staff even offered great cooking tips and product recommendations. I also love that they support local Asian communities and often introduce new products that are hard to find elsewhere. It truly feels like a little piece of Southeast Asia right here in Massachusetts. Whether you’re an experienced cook or just exploring Asian cuisine, this grocery store is a hidden gem you shouldn’t miss.

They have Longan for $5/lb. A typical Asian market

Great selection of Asian products!
