点评:I've heard about Jungle Jim's but never thought I'd be interested, after all it's a market on steroids, and I'm not a fan of shopping. My husband and I decided to make a trip to Jungle Jim's just to check it out, and it wasn't too bad. We stopped at the Eastgate location for this trip. The kitchenware section was our first stop right after walking into the store, and we did find a few gadgets we've been wanting. The set up wasn't fancy or too crazy. The utensils, and kitchen gadgets seem to be of decent quality for the price, and you're bound to find something you're looking for.
The store has all kinds of products from different parts of the world, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Everything was organized pretty well, despite quite a few empty shelf spaces.
I was able to find snacks I remembered from living in England, and items that are better because they don't have the bad stuff the American versions have. I was pleasantly surprised to find Julio's corn tortilla chips at Jungle Jim's since the chips are from the small Texas town I grew up in. Julio's aren't the well-known name brand or carried in many markets outside of Texas. I did notice the guaranteed fresh date on many of the bags were past due. With that in mind, just double check your products for the dates.
It wasn't easy for us to find the cashier when it was time to check out, but we found one after walking around the displays of snacks, and candy.
If you're looking for international goods or just looking for things from other parts of the country, you should be able to find it at Jungle Jim's. The Fairfield location will be our next trip to Jungle Jim's just for comparison.
翻译:我听说过丛林吉姆 (Jungle Jim's),但从没想过会感兴趣,毕竟那是一个市场过于庞大,而我又不是购物狂。我和丈夫决定去丛林吉姆 (Jungle Jim's) 逛逛,结果还不错。我们这次去了东门 (Eastgate) 的店。进店后,我们第一站就是厨具区,找到了一些一直想要的小玩意儿。店里的摆设既不花哨也不夸张。餐具和厨房小工具看起来物美价廉,你肯定能找到心仪的东西。
这家店有各种各样的商品,来自世界各地,亚洲、欧洲和美洲。虽然货架上还有不少空位,但一切都摆放得井井有条。
我找到了记忆中在英国生活时吃过的零食,以及一些品质更好的商品,因为它们没有美国版的那些劣质产品。在丛林吉姆 (Jungle Jim's) 找到胡里奥 (Julio's) 玉米片,我惊喜不已,因为这些玉米片产自我长大的德克萨斯州小镇。胡里奥 (Julio's) 并非知名品牌,在德克萨斯州以外的许多市场也很少销售。我注意到很多包装袋上标明的保鲜期都过期了。所以,请务必仔细检查一下商品的保质期。
结账时,我们很难找到收银员,不过在逛了逛零食和糖果的货架后,我们找到了一位。
如果您正在寻找国际商品,或者只是想了解美国其他地区的东西,丛林吉姆 (Jungle Jim's) 应该能找到。为了比较一下,我们下次会去费尔菲尔德 (Fairfield) 的丛林吉姆 (Jungle Jim's)。
