Hi everyone,
Sorry for the delay in updating this blog. Things got really hectic around the holidays (back in 2012) and then after that, I guess I got lazy (really lazy). My apologizes.
First thing first, updates with the store:
1. We have expanded last year and finally got around to do some renovations this year…June and July were brutal with the installation with new coolers and freezer + relocating items. Zenol pas (the Korean pain relieving sticky pads) is officially my newest best friend.
2. We are not done with renovations, so please pardon our dust and our rearrangement if you can’t find certain items in their usual spot. I will try my best to direct you since I’m always there from early afternoons till close. Yup, every single day unless I have plans.
3. The other local Korean grocery store in Schaumburg has changed into a national chain BUT we are still a mom-and-pop store. And my dad is still kicking it after 1 year!! Come in and check out the sales that we are having. Our sales usually go until my dad feels like it not like the other stores where it’s just a week or so; I assure you, he is so old-schooled that Osaki Brand Imitation Crab meat is still on sale for $5.99 and 3 Crabs Brand Fish Sauce for $2.99 … people, it’s been 1 year already!
Secondly, updates about this blog:
1. I will try to post more food projects. I think the world needs to know the wonders of Korean food. The problem is I don’t cook but in theory know the basics of everything (because customers ask about cooking all the time). Thus, I will post only about the stuff I did. If you all have any questions about cooking, hit me a message and you can test my knowledge, or I will answer you with what my mom said.
2. I will also try to post about what goes on inside our store. Previously, I don’t think I actually posted about sales or uploaded any photos of the store, so that is all on the way.
Lastly, if you (the readers) have any questions about Korean food or products, feel free to ask. I might also post things that even I had questions about (i.e., difference between the million types of soy sauce).
So please look for to my posts.
