The people who bus it to chinatown can just walk down the street and go to their nearby store and buy most of what they need. Even Save on and Superstore carries chinese veggies and other asian items like Hon's noodles.

before we owned a car we used to bus to chinatown from coquitlam to do shopping. there was no T&T back then, or anything sort of chinese community in richmond. they only had time to make the trip once a week and the tons of groceries my mom would buy... i still remember being the runt kid/pack mule sitting on the bus lugging all those bags back home... so yeah thank god for the car!
