Say Hi

Blink and you might miss the unassuming “Say Hi”, while driving through the Lo-Burn IBIZ District. Austin is a city with a lot of neon, so from the outside, this store looks plain. Inside, however, is an explosion of color! Virtually everything evocative of the Far East is represented here: from beautiful noren (Japanese fabric wall dividers) to Chinese shoes for everyone to hard-to-find groceries (such as mirin and canned shark fin’s soup ). Also, please pay attention to the handwritten signs posted on some of the shelves by select merchandise, since the staff may become upset if what they wrote on there is not followed (e.g. ‘Ask for employee assistance with shoes.’). – Freddie Obregon
