Spring break is known for being a time of rest, partying and travel. In fact, beach trips and adventures are common spring break activities.
However, you do not need to leave Dayton to find a special adventure this year. Check out these amazing, local Asian-owned businesses where you can treat yourself with delicious food, shopping and a spa day.
Try some Korean snacks and face masks at Hanguk Market
Are you a foodie that enjoys trying new snacks and drinks? If so, Hanguk Market is the perfect store for you. This market has Korean street foods, sodas, teas, ice creams and ingredients that provide the perfect introduction into Korean food culture.
Additionally, they have a whole section near their check-out counter that contains a diverse array of cosmetic sheet masks that make for a relaxing self-care routine. Not to mention, they have a point card that customers can use to earn points and eventually get $10 off of their purchase.

Leave Hanguk Market and head down the street to Pleasing Market
Following your visit to Hanguk Market, hop back in your car and drive down Kauffman for a few minutes and you will reach Pleasing Market. Another Korean market, Pleasing Market also provides some amazing snacks/drinks to check out. However, they also have a diverse array of Korean side dishes, known as banchan. My favorite banchan is the stir-fried fishcakes and japchae noodles. Similar to Hanguk Market, Pleasing Market also has a point card.
