Once a month me and Gladiator heard to Markham for 2 things:

1. buy Japanese CD’s
2. get some food in J-town

J-town is a great place for everything Japanese to fresh fish,food and shopping in 1 place. The staff is Japanese and will speak Japanese to you if you speak Japanese to them. They also carry all the major Soft drinks in there store like Pocari Sweat (not a bad drink) to Ramune, and the only place I can find Bull Dog sauce. So if you ever want to come to J-town check out the links to help you get there.
