That is where we get the hagelslag, muisjes and vlokken. Not to mention
ontbijtkoek (a spice bread). Unfortunately the shop has little in the
way of German goods.

Right, for the obvious reason. BTW, it is the only place I find
Van Houten Cocoa.

They do call themselves a world market, so there are nonAsian goods
there. Just usually not the ones I want and the markup is astoundingly
high.

The bulk of their goods are Asian. The other goods are a sideline of
sorts. But more than we can get anywhere else in town.

There is an 'Italian' market, but very small and extremely limited range
of goods. Also a 'Mediterranean' market, whicn is primarily Middle
Eastern. Also limited range Nowhere to get a decent olive around
here... pfft LOL

Really, esp. to the last part. We can get good olives at most of
the large supermarket chains--and if that isn't sufficient, there
are a bunch of Middle Eastern stores in a neighboring town.
Indian stores have sprouted up like weeds. There is one decent
Japanese store, and quite a few SE Asian stores in Boston and
another nearby city. Chinese ingredients are generally available
too. We are lucky, but not as lucky as some others.
