What is MIX Store?
MIX Store is a chain that’s been popping up all over Malaysia, serving up an eclectic mix of snacks, drinks, and convenience items. But while places like Family Mart have a more functional approach to the convenience store model, MIX Store takes things to an entirely different level.
This is a place where you don’t just grab a drink and a snack—you go on an international culinary journey without leaving Kuala Lumpur.
Snacks from All Over Asia
MIX Store isn’t just about Malaysian snacks—it’s a melting pot of flavors from all over Asia. Walk inside, and you’ll see shelves overflowing with imported treats from Japan, South Korea, China, Taiwan, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and the Philippines. Each section feels like a mini-tour of its respective country’s snack culture, offering up everything from bizarre candy to ultra-rare instant noodles.
- Japan – If you’ve ever wanted to dive headfirst into Japanese convenience store culture, this is your chance. There’s an overwhelming selection of Pocky, KitKats in flavors you didn’t know existed (matcha, sake, wasabi), and even bottled Japanese milk tea.
- South Korea – No MIX Store visit is complete without a detour to the Korean snack aisle, stacked with spicy tteokbokki chips, Honey Butter Almonds, Pepero, and more varieties of ramen than you could cook in a lifetime. And of course, there’s Soju —because what’s a snack run without a little bit of booze?
- China – If you love weird and wonderful flavors, China’s snack selection will blow your mind. Think salted egg chips, Sichuan pepper peanuts, and even chili-flavored candy. And if you’re feeling particularly adventurous, there’s always century egg-flavored snacks to test your courage.
- Taiwan – Bubble tea is life, and MIX Store has everything you need to satisfy that craving, from instant bubble milk tea packs to tea-infused chocolates and traditional pineapple cakes.
- Thailand – Thai snacks are all about big, bold flavors—think spicy squid chips, mango sticky rice chocolate, and tamarind candies that balance sweet, sour, and spicy in one bite.
- Indonesia & The Philippines – For those who love tropical flavors, there’s banana chips from the Philippines, durian-flavored everything from Indonesia, and even Kopiko coffee candy that’s like a shot of espresso in sugar form.
- Vietnam – For the caffeine-obsessed, the Vietnamese coffee candy is a must-try, offering the same strong kick as a cup of authentic Vietnamese brew.
The Ultimate Soju Selection
While MIX Store may not be the best place for traditional convenience store needs (for that, hit up Family Mart), it absolutely dominates when it comes to Soju. The selection is massive, with flavors ranging from classic green grape and peach to more out-there options like yogurt and blueberry. If you’re planning a casual night in or just want to relive those wild nights in Seoul, this is the place to stock up.
The Best Place for Weird Candy & Souvenirs
For those who love novelty snacks, MIX Store is a dream come true. It’s not just about taste—it’s about fun, wacky, and sometimes outright bizarre treats that make for perfect gifts. Whether it’s Pokemon-themed candy, mochi in flavors you never imagined, or wasabi-flavored chocolates, there’s always something to grab for friends, family, or just yourself.
Final Thoughts: Worth the Visit?
MIX Store near D’Majestic isn’t just a stop for a quick drink—it’s a full-blown experience. Whether you’re hunting down the latest Asian snacks, looking for an unusual souvenir, or just want to stock up on Soju, this place delivers.
