Sun Chong Grocery sits behind a weathered facade of peeling yellow paint and fading red signage on River Street. It belongs to the remnants of a once thriving Chinese merchant district. Opened in the early twentieth century, the shop provided essential ingredients like dried bok choy, salted duck eggs, and specialty spices to immigrant laborers working the nearby sugar plantations. Its narrow aisles hold wooden shelves that have leaned against the same walls for generations, marking a direct link to Chinatown's beginnings.
