This store has everything, but in completely bonkers proportions. The World Foods aisle is like a United Nations of snacks—you can buy Jamaican jerk seasoning next to Polish pierogi and a jar of pickled eggs from 1987 (or so it tastes). The bread section is a minefield: you either find six loaves of gluten-free sourdough or nothing but brioche buns for a week.
Unexpected fact: Asda Isle of Dogs has one of the largest selections of own-brand gin in London. Why? Because living on the Isle of Dogs is stressful—you’ve got Canary Wharf skyscrapers looming over you like giant concrete gherkins, and the traffic on the A13 makes you want to scream into a bag of frozen peas. The gin aisle is therapy in a bottle.
