There are a large number of Chinese- and Vietnamese-owned restaurants/markets in south Sacramento on Stockton Blvd. between Fruitridge Rd. and Florin Rd. The area is about 20 miles away from Davis but there is also a Costco further south on Stockton Blvd. to make it worth your while.

99 Ranch Market (4220 Florin Rd. Sacramento)

Asian Food Center (1301 Broadway Sacramento, 916-448-0887) - veggies are fresher and cheaper than the bigger stores due to higher turnover I believe
