We all dream of traveling the world, sampling international delights at every corner. Japanese sodas, Korean breads, Mexican candies: there are so many wonderful treats to enjoy all over the globe. It’s not always practical to actually purchase a ticket for an international vacation. After all, it’s expensive and it can be difficult to get time away from work and other commitments. Luckily, even if international travel isn’t in the cards, we’ve got the next best thing in Overland Park. 888 International Market is a supermarket that will make you feel like you’re an elite jet-setter without even leaving the Sunflower State. It’s stocked with international foods from all over the globe and is a great one-stop-shop that’s a great opportunity to sample foods from various countries. We’ve got a lot of ethnic restaurants in Kansas and don’t get us wrong, they’re great, but visiting 888 International Market is even better since you can enjoy a variety of cuisines all under one roof.
Kansas has an unfair reputation as being somewhat uncultured. The Midwest is generally thought of as a worldly place far from the cosmopolitan glamor of places like Los Angeles or New York City. The wonderful 888 International Market proves we can be just as jet-setting as the coastal states, though!
