PEARL RIVER MARKETIn the likely event that accordion packs of snack crackers, colorful bundles of origami paper, glittery slippers and lacquered sushi sets are the high-priority items on your shopping list, look no further. Pearl River Mart is the NYC mecca of Chinese thingamabobs. The import emporium for everything you never knew you wanted or needed. Look, and you will find...a wild selection of lanterns and lamps, gorgeously patterned papers, elegantly understated traditional clothing, the weirdest Kung Fu poster in the world, a years supply of crystallized ginger, hand-painted Chinese figurines, terracotta warrior sets, bedding, dumpling steaming baskets, sushi mats, a tea simply called, Manhood, and a full range of herbal remedies that you will put your full faith into because seriously, the people of Pearl River Mart know their stuff. After youve accrued an embarrassing amount of goodies, including that Buddha statue you cant say no to, head to the second floor, which is more like a loft overlooking the first. There, you can reward your shopping skills with a delicious, brewed-on-the-spot pot of tea, and gaze down on your fellow deal-hounds...although, youll probably just end up spotting more things that you want to grab on your way out. But hey, minimalism is a Japanese thing, right?
