Seoul Supermarket

This is an excellent ethnic market with everything Asia. Closed Tuesday to restock, so Wednesday is the best day to go. Many interesting finds. Explore and enjoy.

As many of your might drive pass this store and not even know it exists, this little store hides a lot of great flavor and culture. It is located a nested between Sam’s club and that big strip joint across from McDonald’s on New Circle Road. After living in Philippines for a few years, there is just something about little hole in the wall Asian Markets that I love. They carry many of the same products that I have grown accustom to cooking with that you just can not find in Kroger or Wal-​Mart. They import most of their stock from Asia. So you may not be able to tell what you are buying unless you ask.
They carry a large variety of fresh produce and canned veggies accustomed to Asian cuisine. I normally stock of on dried taro leaves, bean sprouts, lemon grass, and Asian sauces here. This market also carry boba (tapioca pearls) and thai tea here so I can make «Bubble Tea» at home. I am so addicted to that stuff. YUMM!
I also pick up my Asian candies I have a sweet tooth for like Hi-​Chew or MyChew in Manilla (aka Asian Starbursts if you will) and ginger candies.
The owners are both super friendly and helpful. They remember me every time I go in here. The first couple of times I came in here, they kind of held my hand as I shopped for the ingredients to make Pancit Canton and Laing. But now, I go in there and shop like a Champ. When I am checking out I stock up on my Green Tea Mochi and get a Melon Pop to go. The melon pops are taste like ice cream and a honey dew melon had a baby. So good.
So next time you are speeding by this little place, stop in. Don’t just look around buy something. Who knows you may like it.

Although this store is tiny, it has a great selection and everything is fresh! Their vegetables are wrapped well and the selection of veggies rivals yuyu! The owners are very friendly and will help you find everything you need. A big change from YuYu!

I went in to get Thai basil, I left with Thai basil and a HUGE bag of bean sprouts and chopsticks and Sriracha and…
VERY friendly. I was greeted as I walked in and asked if I needed any help. I didn’t need any but this is a refreshing change from Yu Yu across town. HIGHLY recommended.

I love shopping at Seoul Supermarket. Although it is mainly korean grocery store, it provides chinese, japanese, thailand and other asian foods. As I am from Myanmar, I am very satisfied to find such an Asian supermarket because the foods there really diminish my feelings of missing home and it really helps me to get through. It might sound funny. But, I feel home whenever I prepare and eat Asian foods.
There are not only grocery foods, but also some Japanese and Asian Arts Crafts. The shop is also worth visiting for both Americans and other nationality because it is one of the ways to get to know Asian cultures. Please come and stop by the shop. As long as I am here, I will definitely go there and buy Asian foods.

Small and cozy place. The owner and employee are friendly. Good place to get some oriental food there.
