The Good Stuff
Pork Section
The separate non-halal section carries pork products, a useful find for shoppers looking for them in this area.
Cafe Meals
The in-store cafe serves Korean food, including beef bulgogi bibimbap, alongside desserts and bubble tea.
Fresh Greens
One regular shopper specifically found the leafy greens fresh and the pork section well-stocked.
Product Help
Staff have helped shoppers locate unfamiliar products, explain Korean names and suggest alternatives when items are unavailable.
Unique Finds

Tips for a Better Visit
Find P2. Go to Onyx building P2 rather than Level 7, and ask for directions if it is your first visit.
Validate Parking. Bring your parking ticket to the store for validation; several reviews mention two hours, though one older review reports a small-spend issue.
Check Dates. Inspect expiry dates before buying, especially sale items, after one shopper found a product expired the previous year.
Shop In Person. For delivery accuracy, shop in person when the order is time-sensitive or the exact items matter.
Pay By Card. Card payment may be easier than cash if you do not want to search for coins or small bills at checkout.
Ask Staff. If a product is unfamiliar or unavailable, ask staff: a shopper says they explained Korean names, usage and alternatives.

The Bottom Line
1004 Gourmet is an Asian grocery store in The Greens with a strong Korean and Japanese focus. It is useful for stocking a home kitchen with items such as natto, miso-soup ingredients, noodles, spices and Japanese or Korean snacks. The separate non-halal section carries pork products, which one shopper found unusually convenient for the area.
There is more to do than grocery shopping. The in-store cafe serves Korean food, including beef bulgogi bibimbap, as well as desserts, bubble tea and coffee. Reviews also mention fresh sushi, leafy greens, live seafood and a small skincare shop, while regular promotions and weekend sales can make browsing more rewarding.
The main practical snag is finding the shop: it is in Onyx building on P2, not Level 7 as one map showed, and signage can be hard to spot. Parking validation for two hours is mentioned by several reviewers. Check expiry dates carefully, particularly on sale items, and shop in person if delivery accuracy is important; one customer reported receiving incorrect items multiple times.
Prices are sometimes described as high, though shoppers also say the authenticity and hard-to-find products explain the premium. Staff are often helpful, but a few reviews describe abrupt cashier interactions and a serious checkout error.
