I love this Lotte location. The produce, frozen foods, fish & meats, bakery, food court, and k-skincare sections make it easy to shop for all of your items in one store! They also have earthenware bowls that I have been meaning to buy. It is relatively new (less than 5 months since the store has opened as of this post) but has already made a large impact in the community.
Which to get? Both are best sellers and either one is a good choice if you want to learn Korean home cooking. Maangchi's Real Korean Cooking has all the recipes for all the essential Korean pastes and sauces, but my second book Maangchi's Big Book of Korean Cooking has more recipes, more photos, and more variety.
Add your local store to the Korean grocery store directory and help others find good places to shop!
We have shops in many countries including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Chile, Indonesia, Italy, Spain, UAE, the UK, the USA and online.
To make Korean grocery shopping easier for everyone, me and my readers have been making a list of local Korean grocery stores around the world. We started in 2010 and it's grown bigger and bigger every day. Want to find a store near you? Look here. Want to add your local Korean grocery store? Do it here! I use my own website no matter where I go, to get my Korean ingredients. : )
