neighborhood,” said Bachlien Ly, the owner of Vietnam Garden. “It will be so convenient for me to just walk over there to pick up my fresh vegetables for my restaurant. I’ve heard great things about them, and this is a blessing as it will bring more business to the area. I am so happy and thrilled with the news that they are coming to the shopping center. I can’t wait.” Like its sister store on Midlothian Turnpike, the West End version will feature a wide variety of ethnic foods, including Asian, Middle Eastern, Indian, African, Latin and American. Focusing on fresh seafood, meat specials and organic produce, the grocer will serve as a mecca for carnivores and vegetarians/vegans alike. Further, supplying aromatic spices, housewares, sundries and unique products from around the world, New Grand Mart will be a welcome addition to Richmond’s multicultural Richmond scene. New Grand Mart will also provide prepared foods as well as an on-site eatery for those who seeking a unique dining experience. The Asian restaurant menu will offer varied healthy options. The menu is available online at NewGrandMart.com. Yang Lee, whose husband, Kyu Lee, will serve as manager at the store, said that they anticipate opening in late October or early November. “We are an international grocer with lots of products from different countries,” she said. “With all the Krogers and Costcos carrying the same things, we are excited to offer so many choices. I think Richmond’s been waiting for us.” You don’t need a passport to be a globetrotting foodie, New Grand Mart provides world class groceries right in your own back yard.

here’s a new street about to open in Hallsley, Chesterfield County’s prestigious residential community and one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the entire Metro Richmond area. This new street is somewhat different from the other lovely tree-lined roadways that lead through the community. This is the Street of Hope. So, just what what makes the Street of Hope different? It’s certainly not in the quality or the aesthetics of the new homes. Indeed, the Street of Hope will offer some of the most beautifully designed homes on the market. Eight of Hallsley’s most respected custom builders have partnered with East West Communities, the developers of Hallsley, to create this first-ever Southern Living inspired Community Street of Hope. “There are eight furnished designer models that are all Southern Living home plans – never before built in Hallsley,” says Connie Pollard, Senior Vice President of Marketing for East West Communities. “We can’t wait to see these Lowcountry and coastal cottage homes come to life!” However, the differences go well beyond the fact that prospective homebuyers and others will have a chance to tour homes that they’ve never before seen in Hallsley. The most important distinction is that the Street of Hope is “paved” with the noble goal of raising $700,000. Explaining the purpose of this ambitious project, Pollard says, “East West Communities is hosting the 2017 Street of Hope to benefit research and education at the VCU Massey Cancer Center and to provide educational opportunities for underprivileged Richmond area youths who wish to attend the VCU School of Business. This event is a vehicle for our business partners to give back to the Richmond community in a combined effort to make a significant difference.” The proceeds, Pollard says, will come from sponsorships, ticket sales, a Home of Hope, and special events that are planned to showcase the beautiful new homes that line the Street, which opens to the public on Saturday, October 21 and runs through Sunday November 5th. The admission is just $10 for adults. Children 12 and under are admitted at no charge. (To purchase tickets, see contact information below.) In addition to touring the homes, visitors will have an opportunity to shop at the Street of Hope Marketplace and to enjoy creative cuisine from Cafe Caturra and some of the area’s most popular food trucks. A Realtor preview breakfast will be held on October 19, and a special VIP Gala and Live Auction is scheduled for the following night. The gala not only offers an opportunity to take a sneak peek at the beautiful homes, but to enjoy hors d’oeuvres, an open bar, live entertainment from the Atlanta-based Perfect 10 Band and to bid on some amazing items including gourmet kitchen appliances, a child’s dream playhouse, a Napa Valley or Italian getaway and much more. Tickets are $100 per person and are expected to sell out well in advance. Special themed events are planned during the 17-day run, including Concerts of Hope on both of the Thursday evenings with Three Sheets to the Wind appearing on October 26 and Fat Elvis band on November 2. See the website for a calendar of events. “The Street of Hope brings the latest in new home technology with trending new home finishes together in a fun-filled atmosphere for the whole family to enjoy,” says Pollard. “There are concerts, gourmet food trucks, a marketplace shopping experience and weekend entertainment. And it’s all for a great cause.” For tickets, event schedule and more information, visit StreetOfHope.com.
