Ca Mau Supermarket

These people have the best baguettes in town! Love to drop by Cả Mau at 10AM for some fresh bánh mì! They are small but have just about everything!

Great convenient Vietnamese market for people in the area as an alternative to Katy or Bellaire.It's a smaller place so selection isn't the best, but it provides most of the basics. Support your local shops!

i think i have a love affair with Ca Mao for real. eg kids taken to school, a little bit of precious free time...and my thoughts have been about this first bite of banh mi and washing it down with a sua da for breakfast. i can't even finish it, i must write about this now and hope someone concurs. often i find myself aimlessly wondering the depths of h-town asian markets in vain perusing the shelves for a specific drink from Hanoi that i only can find in Ca Mao: canned Highlands Coffee, to die for, which is the epitome of coffee, imho, using the staple of the second largest producer of coffee beans in the world, Vietnamese robusta, the best type of bean that no one knows about and if you appreciate coffee at its roots for taste alone or secondly if you can see its future (which robusta is, ie more green, easier & cheaper to produce, more able to withstand climate impacts vs arabica, and superior flavor when done properly, like in this sua da). i digress because Highland perfectly segues into this market, a Vietnamese town center that has thrived and expanded massively over the years for a simple fact: everyone knows and loves their food and drink. interesting major historical side note: Highland was the first overseas Vietnamese private company registered in Vietnam in 1998. So also Ca Mao makes tons of proper, fresh banh mi baguettes everyday, the kind that crunch on the outside and are that perfect sponge for absorbing the meat & pickled vegg juices inside. their banh mi is heo quay (roasted pork) Xa Xiu (bbq pork, the pink sweet pork that is usually found in authentic Banh Mi) so basically bbq pork but with cracklings from the skin as you can see in my pics, a double crunch when you combine with the banh mi bread. the xi xiu is on a vertical spit hanging in the window literally sopping wet, profusely dripping, from which they shave off pieces including the crackling on the outside, like a trompo or spit, reminiscent of shawarma/pastor, into the banh mi. an experience indeed! and this is just the back. i've found everything i love here, like right when you walk in are the phins for viet drip coffee and cafe du monde NOLA bean cans, another passion of mine that is the american equivalent to the traditional vietnamese exported robusta in terms of flavor profile with its classic chicory and dark roast, the perfect substitute and typical beans used in most sua das found in USA. it's basically a kitchen supply store here too. i've even found ridiculously priced cleavers, straws, bowls, you name it. they always have really fresh produce like crazy cheap yet huge cilantro as well as lemongrass and bok choy, to name a bit. my kids always find some fun snack. my favorite brand of bulgogi marinade is here too, and so are amazing prices on a variety of spices i constantly need, like black peppercorns. my local best deal on sesame oil is here as well as rice noodles. i've only just begun exploring their ice creams, one of which was a boba, a coffee one (right up my alley), and mochis. i feel like i'm always discovering new things each visit. come see for yourself!

These were expensive at $10/lbs, more expensive than most place in town right now. It look fresh from the outside but all the fruits were so bad. I'mSo disappointed that I spent $45 on these and they were no good!

Tôi vừa mới mua đồ trong tiệm này hôm nay là ngày ba tháng chín lúc 04.00 chiều, một cậu thanh niên tính tiền vừa mập vừa lùn xấu tính Cái mặt thì nhìn không ra thể thống gì cả!Cậu này không biết có phải là con cháu của chủ tiệm hay không nhưng mà hầu hết tất cả những người làm ở trong này nhất là những người liên quan tới chủ thật sự không xứng đáng bán hàng cho người việt nam! Họ không có tư cách, mặt lúc nào cũng vênh váo lên chứ coi như mình là trên hết, vô văn hóa không có học thức là những người như vậy tôi không bao giờ trở lại chợ này nữa và tôi nghĩ rằng mọi người hãy suy nghĩ lại, Thật là thiếu văn hóa và kém văn minh, sống ở Mỹ mà không mở mắt ra được thì cả chứ làm xấu hổ cho người Việt Nam mình.

The special gem of Cypress! I normally drive 30 minutes to Katy or Bellaire for Asian grocery stores like 99 ranch or HMART. I didn't even know there was an Asian market in cypress! This place is located in a small Vietnamese shopping plaza - it's off of 529.. but it's worth going if you need your basic Asian goods! I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of things they had in there. Their seafood and meat look the most fresh! I believe that they make their banh mi's fresh too but it does sit in a bin after it's made. I would not go into this store with high expectations as it is a small Asian market and it looks like it's not ran by a lot of workers. It is extremely messy inside the store but all you have to do is ask someone to help and they were nice about helping me find what I needed. There needs to be another Asian grocery store in cypress!!Cons - couldn't find expiration dates for some items and some items did not have expiration dates. Frozen food items seemed frozen burned and the beer and frozen aisle had leaking water all on the floor. Pros - you can find most of your viet, chinese, Korean needs at this little market. The seafood looks extremely fresh and I will be coming back to try. The meat market looks fresh as well - lots of customers were ordering so I'm assuming it is good.The pricing of the items - hit and miss. Some of the things are cheaper than 99 or HMART. This mart is definitely worth visiting to see what you can find here instead of having to drive 30 minutes out of town.

bought some mangosteen and opened two of them to find that they were both completely brown and rotten inside. I go back to ask for an exchange or return since i litterally cannot consume them. they tell me that there are "no exchanges, no exceptions" so i asked if theres anything i could do instead of keeping rotten fruit that i just got minutes before. she calls the manager and he snaps at me with this catty attitude, telling me that theres no exceptions and then when i say its rotten he starts yelling at me saying that its my fault for picking rotten fruit. which didnt look rotten from the outside. (it also REEKS once opened)dont get fruit from this store if you dont wanna get yelled at when you find out it's rotten inside and try to return.

Little market but have almost everything I need that don't have to drive to Bellaire. Pricing is okay. Some are cheaper, the same. or more than big supermarket (Hong Kong, Jusgo) depend on the items.

Great market for fresh seafood and plenty of choices of ingredients for your favorite meals.
