Pacific Plaza
Pacific Plaza is a new Oriental shopping and food court complex situated in Wembley, London. It hopes to recapture the spirit of the now-closed Oriental City at 399 Edgware Road.
Pacific Plaza opened on the 5th December 2009 and at the time of writing numerous restaurants and food court outlets are trading, with an oriental supermarket due to open in early March 2010. The popular Japanese tableware and ceramics store, Utsuwa-no-Yakata, previously trading at Oriental City has also reopened under the new name of Doki Ltd.
The Plaza is situated in Wembley Retail Park, Engineers Way, Wembley, Middlesex, HA9 0EG, which is a short walk away from Wembley Park tube station.
Ground Floor
Several businesses are open on the ground floor.
- Oriental supermarket - Due to open early March 2010.
- Doki - this is the Japanese crockery shop that used to trade as Utsuwa-No-Yakata in Oriental City. It's open 10am-6:30pm Mon-Sun.
- Tetote Factory - a Japanese bakery open 10am-7pm Mon and Wed-Sun. It also sells hot drinks, and although there's no seating in the shop, it's fine to take your purchases upstairs and eat them in the food court.
- O's Beauty - A beauty salon.
Food Court
There are twelve stalls in the Food Court located on the first floor, of which eight are open as of mid-February 2010. Much like Oriental City before it, food at Pacific Plaza consists of authentic national cuisine from various Asian countries:
