Chee Accu puncture on Maunakea Street, sits the Dragon-Horse Rice Shop, a high ceilinged stark white room that is the antithesis of conspicuous consumerism. The Dragon-Horse is a nirvanafor inde cisive shoppers, forit carries only one item: 25 lb. bags of "No. 1, 100 percent, Fragrant Rice, Jasmine Rice, Camel Brand from Thailand." The bags are unceremoniously stacked several feet high, all made from woven white plastic and adorned with red lettering and a large picture of a Bactrian camel. Rice sells for$8.50 a bag ($8 a bag if you buy 10 or more). The shop is manned by Lam Yu en Chung, whose English is just good enough to proffer that the rice is "good."
