    Kimchi?

    I love this stuff. Anyone know a good place to pick up a couple pounds of quality kimchi for a reasonable price?

    Jay,

    You can buy kimchi in Jusco supermarket or Citysuper supermarket.

    If you would like to buy or taste other Korean foods, you can go to Kimberley Street (between Observatory Road and Carnavon Road). This is do called mini Koreatown (i.e. some Korean groceries and restaurants)

    Check this out!

    Kimchi

    Hmmmm, I cannot get enough Kimchi....they are sold in Jusco, Citysuper, Wellcome and some ParkNShop supermarkets. I forgot the name of the brand, but it's a grean and white alluminum packet. This one tastes far better than the other brand, which is in a plastic container.

    mmmm... kimchi

    being korean, i'd say the kimchi they sell at jusco, citysuper and the other supermarkets is not that good. most koreans i know, at least those that live on kowloon side, will go to the korean stores by kimberly road. you get all sorts of freshly-made kimchi and it's high-quality stuff as well as authentic. prices are also reasonable.

    The Citysuper kind is far too sweet for my tastebuds. Thanks for the help guys, I'm going to TST tomorrow. My mouth is watering already I'll look for those packs while I'm out there....shoot, I'll even pick up an assortment to try

    Kombucha I've been thinking about making my own too...I'll pick up some ingredients soon.

    When you do tell me where you got the 'kim chi sauce' from.
