Korean Grocery Shopping in Singapore

Fellow Singaporean blogger Aini has compiled a very comprehensive list of Korean supermarkets in Singapore.  Compared to a decade again, when there was only Seoul Plaza, Shine Supermarket, Koreana Trading and Solmart, there are so many more supermarkets that have found their way into Singapore.  I personally shop at Shine Supermarket at Burlington Square and Solmart at Square 2 more often than the others because they are more accessible to me.

    1. Hi Sean, Korean Supermarket was already in Singapore in early 2000s but they were very low-profile. With the popularity of Korean culture and increase in Korean population here, Korean products have found a foot hold here in Singapore =)

    1. Hi, Korean food products seldom have such labelling... I guess you have to be quite selective when purchasing. =)

    2. Hi Jos
      What a comprehensive list. Great job. Which Korean supermarket sells the most variety of raw ingredients like chillies for kimchi and bulgogi marinade and has the most reasonable prices?
      Thanks
