Comments
I have been shopping there for many years. I am especially interested in the Korean salad specialties like sesame leaves, kimchi, pickled radish cubes... and bulgogi sauce. Some of these are now also available in other large Asian stores, such as on Hohe Strasse in Dortmund or in the basement of Kaufhof. It always depends on what you need.
Hi Susi, yes, that's true. Hopefully, Korean products will soon be offered in abundance in all supermarkets. Or maybe even more Korean supermarkets will open in Germany in the future :) Best regards, Matthias
