I've known this shop on the 24th street for a long time, and I thought it was a kimchi shop. But it turns out they import directly from Korea, and it's a shop that Korean enthusiasts can't resist. There are quite a few customers. In this day and age, only two groups can enter the shop at a time. The shop is packed with products, so it's cramped inside, and you can't stay long, even though you want to. The order includes: Pogi Kimchi, which someone from TVXQ apparently likes. Hmm, it's definitely authentic. It has a unique taste and it's delicious! I want to eat this all the time, even though it's a bit pricey. Dashi Da Yukejang is apparently made with this. Can you make Yukejang at home with this?! I haven't tried it yet though. Komutan Ramen is Korean ramen, and if you don't like spicy food, try this! It's delicious! I recommend this one. Korean food tends to have a love-hate relationship. I love spicy food endlessly though. I want to go there. I want to go to Korea. Will I be able to go in this lifetime? (laughs) Thank you for the meal.

The store was supposed to open at midnight, but it didn't open until 12:10, haha. They have a wide variety of instant ramen, which is affordable, so I bought a lot. The ajumma there is very kind, and when I bought chilled products like egoma leaf kimchi, octopus kimchi, and changja, they put dry ice on top - a thoughtful gesture. And it's delicious! Goes well with Chamisul.

"When it gets hot, the symptoms worsen, it is a designated rare disease by the government. Unfortunately, there is no medication that suits me yet. Likes and comments may be delayed, so thank you in advance. There is a high possibility of readmission by the end of the year. [April 2020] "Kimchi Land Hokkaido - Kita24jo Store" is a store located outside the "Kita24jo Seisen Chuo Market" in Hokkaido. It is a specialty store that directly imports Korean food ingredients such as kimchi and instant noodles. After lunch, I visited with my usual companion. This store is located in the Kita24jo area of Sapporo's Kita Ward, along Nishi 5-chome and Tarukawa Street, on the road side of "Kita24jo Seisen Market". Please check the exact location of the store on Tabelog. The visit was around 2:30 pm on a weekday. The store is compact, but the products are piled up. There is a cooler at the back, where items like "kimchi" are stored. From large bags to convenient small packs, there is a variety. The classic is, of course, "baechu kimchi". I chose a relatively lightly pickled one. ■ Baechu Kimchi Label: 500g Weight: 530g (after deducting the packaging weight) It is lacto-fermented. It is not very spicy, with a sweet and flavorful taste, and the kimchi is not finely cut, so you need to cut the cabbage for each meal. Price: 1,080 yen (tax included) "Baechu Kimchi" is truly authentic kimchi. It is not very spicy, with a sweet and flavorful taste. Since it is not cut, it takes longer to become sour, which is convenient. It is completely different from the intensely spicy "Chinese kimchi". It is a characteristic of Korean kimchi, and personally, it is my favorite type of kimchi. Inside the "Kita24jo Seisen Chuo Market", there were only a few customers in the entire market even in April. It has been a very rare sight since March. I wonder which kimchi I should try next time. It was delicious, thank you for the meal."

Visited Pannihumhasamnida on November 4, 2017! Just kidding, haha. It's been a while since I went on an expedition to Kita-ku. I've known this kimchi shop for over 10 years and I really love it. Back then, you could sample before deciding what to buy, but I wonder if that has changed? I used to have a point card too, but I think I lost it somewhere, haha. This time, I bought a 500-gram kimchi for 1050 yen, and 3 for 1050 yen. They had kimchi with firefly squid, long-arm octopus, and garlic. The first one I tried at home was the firefly squid kimchi. Truly authentic! The perfect spiciness of the chili pepper, the umami of the squid, and the aroma of garlic pieces were amazing! It goes so well with beer! Maybe I'll have some beer with it today, haha. Thank you for the meal!

This shop has a wide variety of kimchi and Korean ingredients! I visited during a darts tournament at "Masuya" on the second floor of the building. It's my third time here! But every time, I end up buying the punishment game prize. Sorry about that. They have a great selection of instant noodles! I bought the spiciest one for the punishment prize. It's really hot! My butt hurts the next day. They also have some intense canned foods. Like canned insect larvae... I tried it. The broth smells bad. If you pour out the broth and have a few drinks, you might be able to eat it. Of course, the kimchi is delicious! I had squid and octopus kimchi this time, and it goes great with alcohol. The squid kimchi was almost expired, so they gave it to me as a bonus. Thank you, manager! They have other unique ingredients and tasty foods, so definitely check it out! Additionally, if you look at their website, mixing kimchi with finely chopped green chili peppers, sesame oil, and sesame seeds makes it delicious. I added some green onions, chili oil, and sesame seeds I had on hand, and it was even tastier!

In the summer, a cold draft beer and shochu on the rocks are refreshing and delicious! I enjoy eating kimchi, which makes me sweat with its capsaicin kick. Kimchi is not in season during the summer as it is typically made with napa cabbage, but I prefer it when it's ready to eat. My wife, on the other hand, likes it when it's still young and fermenting, so we compromised and went with the younger version. In the winter, kimchi can be a bit sour, but it's perfect for dishes like kimchi stir-fried with pork and tofu stew. However, in the summer, we stick to lighter options like pickled kimchi. The kimchi we have is different from the store-bought ones, as it has a true fermented taste with a mix of sweet and spicy Korean red pepper. It's a cycle of eating spicy kimchi, drinking shochu, feeling the heat, drinking more, and getting tipsy. It's hard to resist the variety of drinking snacks, so we only indulge a few times a year. When we have a home barbecue, homemade dishes like bean sprout namul and kimchi are perfect accompaniments. Making kimchi from scratch with Korean red pepper, salt, and fermenting it is quite challenging, especially without a dedicated fermentation space. Even in Hokkaido, making homemade pickled herring in the winter is difficult. Enjoying a glass of shochu with a side of pickled vegetables like chanja is a simple pleasure that brings happiness!

You can choose what you want to try carefully. The staff are friendly and helpful. Every time I passed by Kimchi Land in Hokkaido, I was curious but never had the chance to visit until now. This time, I decided to try a set of three items – Chanja, Firefly Squid, and Octopus Kimchi for 1050 yen. They were all delicious with a good level of spiciness. The Kimchi set was perfect for a drink. The consistent and delicious taste of Chanja was addictive with its unique texture and flavor. The ginger flavor also came through. The Firefly Squid was marinated well during its peak season, with a chewy and creamy texture. The Octopus Kimchi also had a chewy texture but once you start eating, you can't stop. I also bought spicy yakisoba, Sichuan-style spicy sauce yakisoba, cold noodles with plenty of toppings, and cold noodle soup with spicy minced pork. Stay tuned for the next review where I try the classic white cabbage kimchi.

I also like Korean food quite a bit! I'm not a fan of overly spicy food, but I enjoy dishes with a moderate level of spiciness. My recent favorite is Changja ❤️ Whenever I go to Jin Gi Ya, I always end up ordering it because I love it so much ❤️ I heard that this restaurant serves delicious Changja, so I had to come and try it! They also sell a lot of kimchi and other familiar Korean ingredients. If you ask the staff, they will let you sample different kimchi flavors, which is great for finding ones you like! The Changja was delicious! The staff mentioned that unlike other places, they use fresh ingredients for their Changja here. The expiration date is short, but it's so tasty that I had to buy it right away! I had it for dinner that night with rice, and it was so satisfying ❤️ I also bought garlic kimchi because I love garlic, and it was so good! I also got some seasoned seaweed, which was perfect for sprinkling over rice. The kids loved it too and ate a lot! I definitely want to go back to this place when I run out of these goodies! Thank you for the delicious meal! ((´∀｀*))

Welcome! This is a Korean food ingredients and kimchi store located at the corner where North 24th Street and North 24th Street intersect in the North Ward. It was said to be "awesome" so let's go in with determination... The snack kimchi looks cheap. The store is really small and packed with Korean food ingredients. The owner, who speaks broken Japanese, welcomes you with a smile. He encourages you to take your time and try some samples. The small containers of "snack kimchi" are 65g each and cost 380 yen for one, 1050 yen for three, with about 6 varieties to choose from. I decided to get three. The squid kimchi, octopus, and chanja were delicious. The squid had a nice sweetness and the garlic added a unique flavor. The octopus had a good texture and flavor. The chanja was mildly spicy and would go well with rice. The squid and octopus also had garlic which added a nice kick. If you like the taste of raw garlic, I recommend the garlic kimchi. Overall, it's worth a try if you're in the area. Enjoy your meal!

【Takeout Available】This shop imports kimchi directly from Korea and sells it. In addition to kimchi, they also sell fine powder chili pepper ♡, coarse powder chili pepper ♡, as well as other Korean food and beverages. The variety of Korean-imported kimchi is extensive, including some that you may not see often! You can even sample them to find your favorite kimchi. If you buy in bulk, you can get a discount. They have a stamp card as well. Visited again on February 6, 2014, around 2:30 pm. It had been a while since I last visited the North 24th Street store, as there used to be a store in Nango 7-chome that I frequented. After finishing shopping at the factory, we headed to North 24th Street. My companion mentioned that they liked perilla leaf kimchi, so we decided to stop by on the way. They seemed to have bought several types of kimchi. After delivering the goods and finishing installing the curtains, they gave me some kimchi as a thank-you gift. Wait, didn't they say they liked perilla leaf kimchi? Why did they give it to me instead of them? Actually, I also love perilla leaf kimchi. Ever since I bought it at the store in Nango 7-chome, it has been my favorite. Perilla leaf kimchi has a unique flavor, almost like a mix of mint and spices. I enjoy the bitterness as well. It's rolled like Chinese cabbage, so I peel off each layer and eat it with rice. I remember trying to bite into it whole before and it was quite a challenge (lol). The refreshing spiciness, balanced with bitterness and acidity, is just perfect. Although the kimchi at this shop may be a bit pricey, I feel that the taste is worth it.

This place is located near the North 24 Jo Station of the subway, across from Sapporo Sun Plaza along North 24 Jo Street. It is a store that offers a variety of food items related to Korea, such as authentic Korean-imported kimchi, changja, dried noodles, sweets, seasonings, and more. The main store is in Tsuruhashi, Osaka, and the Hokkaido location is a franchise store. Personally, I pride myself on being a "lover of spicy food," so I always keep an eye out for spicy items. I first visited this place after seeing it featured on a TV show where you could buy kejang (crab kimchi). Kejang is available from late autumn to winter, priced at 2,100 yen for 400g (1 pack). You have to order it and it will be available a week later. The taste is a blissful mix of sweet and spicy Korean kimchi with the tender raw flesh of the crab. It's a delightful experience! The leftover shells and broth can be used as the base for a kimchi hot pot. The store taught me how to make a Korean-style kimchi hot pot using a clay pot, sesame oil, kimchi, pork, tofu, shellfish, and vegetables. The key is to sauté the kimchi and pork first before simmering, which I didn't know before. The store's standout feature is the abundant "tasting" opportunities. The friendly owner encourages customers to try various kimchi samples, making it a welcoming environment. I purchased the Hotaruika Kimchi, Changja, and Garlic Kimchi this time. The Hotaruika Kimchi has a good texture and surprisingly pairs well with kimchi. The Changja is from Korea and has a tender and smooth texture, unlike domestic ones. The Garlic Kimchi is exactly what it sounds like, so it might be too strong for those who don't like garlic. Overall, this review may not be of interest to those who dislike spicy food, but for those who enjoy it, I hope you found it enjoyable. I will continue to explore spicy foods with unwavering curiosity, seeking out new spicy dishes.

I visited this store because cooking is my hobby and I am health-conscious, and I wanted to make Samgyetang, which is currently a bit of a trend. To make Samgyetang from scratch, Korean ginseng is necessary, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Although I had never been inside, I was very curious about this store so I decided to check it out. The store was small and packed with products, making it fun just to look around. When I asked the staff about Korean ginseng, they told me that unfortunately they had stopped stocking it for now. However, they could order it for me, and they even showed me a catalog with the details. But when I found out how expensive it would be to order, they kindly advised me that it might be better to reconsider (laughs). They also showed me a ready-made Samgyetang in a retort pouch, which was much cheaper, but as someone who wanted to make it from scratch, I couldn't bring myself to buy it. I didn't spend any money, but I was impressed by the staff who listened to me so attentively. Next time, I will go buy the retort Samgyetang.
