L P Trading

I love this store when I first discovered. I thought It was a gift shop. It took me awhile to understand what they sell. So, I could just walk in and out quickly with very minimum interactions.
I was first attracted by the solar-​powered motion figurines. Made in China, yes. There is nothing cuter than these inexpensive toys. (see my in-​app video) They are perfect for birthday gifting. (Most of my Unilocal friends got one of these last year.)
I then noticed they sell ready-​made Chinese medicines and medicinal soaps. I also like about where they came from. If the label shows Solstice Medicine importer, which means the medicines came from reputable manufacturers. There were also soaps from Japan and Korea.
Moving on to kitchenware and drinkware, there are plenty of tradition and modern utensils that I couldn’t find elsewhere. If I need something in the kitchen, I’ll come here first. I see they have Zojirushi and Tiger rice cookers on the display wall by the entrance.
They have about 3 aisles of statuettes, from big to small and religious to everyday things. If I was rich, I’ll decorate my house with those jade Buddhas (笑佛). The final third of store is all Buddhist meditation supplies and ritual items.
I feel sorry for the other reviewer on their mistreatment. Unfortunately, it was a typical service behavior in this diverse SW Houston Chinatown. It took me years of tolerance to get used to it.

been there last weekend. we came inside just want to check out some stuffs. while we look around, there are several people in the store look like owner and his family, it like the whole family where there the whole time and they half Chinese and Vietnamese. while we look around, they know us viet so they speak Chinese thinking that we don’t understand what they are saying. they said all the things like: they properly not gonna buy it and that, these people are only looking around, this girl is giving that guy opinion and stuff and they properly not gonna buy it… and many more. but these stupid people don’t know that we can understand what they are saying… so we just gonna pretended that we didn’t hear anything and walk out and laugh at these people… haizz cant believe there are still people like this… bad service !!! do not recommend to any one cause when you come in, they properly will talk shit behind your back in another language if you don’t buy any thing from them…
