➹ yummy finds at the korean grocery part 5!

Yeah, it's been a while ^^. It has been so busy these past weeks that I've missed my previously regular trips to the nearby Korean grocery. When I finally managed to drop by, I found some fairly "new" options on the beverage cooler!

I am a HUGE FAN of sikhye so I was really excited to try out this new bottle:


And YUMMMMMMMMM~~~ it was just perfect! I liked this better than the canned one. The sikhye was refreshing and lightly sweet and just amazing. I will definitely get this again next time.

And then I found some Pororo banana milk cartons and I just instantly had to buy them! I was thinking of my young nephew and niece and how they really love Pororo. I haven't had the chance to give them yet but I'm excited nevertheless.


If you know other canned/bottled sikhye drinks, do let me know! I really enjoy these Korean drinks ^^. I can't wait for new discoveries on my next grocery trips.

Found some really cute Pororo snacks for my niece and nephew! The tasty biscuits came in the shape of Pororo characters so they were a real treat for the kids.




I got myself some Hotteok cookies as well! The walnut and peanut flavor intrigued me so I couldn't resist grabbing a box. They were soft and chewy cookies which surprisingly not too sweet.





They can't compare to real Hotteok ofcourse ㅋㅋㅋ. These were really chewy and it gave my jaws a little workout! But I still love the texture plus the hint of cinnamon is just perfect.



I kind of like the Bungeoppang snacks better though. Maybe I am a sweet bean kind of person. I even love the ice cream version a lot!




I received some Korean snacks from my friend in Seoul as well.



I had 연양갱 before but it was my first time trying out the Ddeokbokki and the 쫄병 snacks so I was really excited. The Ddeokbokki snack was spicy but really delicious! ^^ I wanted to eat real Ddeokbokki for days after I had the packaged snack version. But my favorite amongst the 3 was the crispy noodle barbecue flavored쫄병! Snacking on these was such a guilty pleasure for me. Luckily, I found these same items on the local grocery so I managed to get them again afterwards.

I just keep finding more yummy stuff right? ㅋㅋㅋ I really miss Seoul as it will be nearly a year since my last vacation. Doing some random Korean grocery shopping eases my longing somehow~~

So today I found some old pictures on my phone from my previous grocery escapades. Ahh, looking at these makes me want to head out for an impromptu Korean food shopping spree!


Corn Chee means guilty addicting kiddie pleasures. My niece is in love with this snack because of the sticky sweet corn flavor reminiscent of flavored popcorn you get at local fairs.


I was so happy to get this from the local grocery! I brought home some of these bread goodies when I went to Seoul last fall so buying this recently reminded me of that amazing vacation.


I mentioned how fond I am of corn tea before so I just have to have a bottle of this again. Drinking it cold is really refreshing! Although some of my colleagues commented that it looked like cooking oil hahaha~


Bottled coffee is so common in Korea and Cafe Bene is one of the more popular brands. Perhaps it's because of the Secret Garden craze which had some scenes shot at a Cafe Bene location. I am no coffee connoisseur but this one tastes real good to me.


Almond candies!^^ You get a real whole almond on top of a caramel candy. I like to melt the caramel on my mouth and munch through the almond afterwards ... yum!



And one more caramel candy hehehe ... This one is chewy and sticks to your teeth. But it comes in handy pack which fits my pocket! I brought these to meetings and helped keep me awake on boring moments hehe~

So there's another set of grocery goodies. You can find my first batch of yummy finds here and the second one here.
