Where might I find Kimchi on the North Shore?

Question

Looking for Kimchi to serve with Momofuku BoSam...I don't feel like huckin' the sooby all the way to Malden.to the old Super 88 only if I must....I am guessing WF in Saugus might carry biodynamic organic free range kimchi, but wondering if any hounds have spotted it anywhere say N of Peabody and South of NBPT.

Answer

Try market basket...

Answer

I don't know what "WF in Saugus" is. WF usually means Whole Foods but there isn't one in Saugus or anywhere near Saugus.. I agree that Market Basket is probably a good place to look, although I can't say I've bought it there and don't know for sure that they have it. HMart definitely is a good place to stock up, or if you're feeling inspired to make it yourself, it's really easy and the one time I tried it, what I ended up with was as good as anything I've bought. Here's a discussion on that front http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/770007

Answer

Whole Foods does have kimchi (yes, in the organic foods section). They have stores in Swampscott and Andover. I am not a huge WF fan myself, but for me finding an item like this is worth not wasting time and gas$ searching elsewhere.

Answer

h-mart in burlington. it's worth the trip

Answer

Prob doesn't meet your needs at all but there is also a very small Korean store in Salem NH right near MA border. They have homemade Kimchi there as well. Very limited selection other wise on other items

Answer

I've never seen a supermarket without it, except for maybe Johhnie's, but I never checked there. Certainly Shaw's and Stop & Shop carry a perfectly serviceable brand whose name escapes me but I think it's Kings.
