Vietnamese Grocery Store in Manhattan?

Hey! I'm a newcomer to NYC from California and i miss all of my Vietnamese food products. Can anyone tell me where I can get my fix of these things?

Some of what you're looking for may be found on W. 32nd Street btw 5th and 6th Ave in Manhattan, or (definitely) at the mega-sized Hong Kong Grocery in Flushing, Queens. There is a small Thai grocery store on Mosco St in Chinatown but I think Flushing is the most comprehensive, and your best bet.

There are two markets that I know of:
1) 2nd (or so) storefront on the southwest side of Grand Street across from the D/B Grand Street station.
2) Tan Tin Hung Supermarket at 121 Bowery Street - Definitely has Cha lua, duck / chicken balut, lemongrass and various herbs, the long vegetable to make Canh Chua and other goodies.

Agree ! TAN TIN HUNG 121 Bowery they got all the right ingredients for Vietnamese or Thai food. The cashiers are also extremely helpful in helping me find the necessary products
