One thing that intrigued me was how many shops were actually little supermarts selling fresh vegetables, food and groceries such as the shop above. There are many of such shops on each floor and as you walk past them, you can get a whiff of the rich spices and produce that they sell!

Some of these shops also extend their goods variety to fresh flowers and bouquets.
