It will be some time before we can return to the land of kimchi. Being a staple in Korean cuisine, you’ve probably seen kimchi served alongside Korean food. While it is possible to make your own kimchi, it’s even easier to buy off the shelves. Other than supermarket ones, how about giving other brands a try?
If you’re keen to support the smaller brands, here’s a range of options from 4.97 SGD.
#1: SL Foods
Their official store on Shopee Mall sells a variety of Korean products. Probably the cheapest we’ve scouted thus far, the ‘I’m Kim’ branded kimchi usually priced from 7.90 SGD is selling at 4.97 SGD now. Of course, this excludes shipping costs.
At the moment, the 500g bottle of Korean cabbage kimchi is priced at 4.97 SGD while the 800g option at 7.82 SGD. If you’re keen, you can make your purchase here. It’s imported directly from Korea and will be shipped from Singapore.
#2: Hanguk Kitchen
Hanguk Kitchen is another store on Shopee Mall. Similar to SL Foods, the brand offers a range of Korean products like Samgyetang Ginseng Chicken Soup, Cheese Flavour Tteokbokki Korean Rice Cake, and more.
Apart from cabbage kimchi, have you tried cucumber kimchi before? Jin Kimchi who usually sells their bottle of cucumber kimchi (345g) for 16 SGD is having an ongoing sale. You can purchase it at 13.90 SGD now!
And of course, the classic cabbage kimchi is available for purchase as well. If you prefer a variety and different crunch, we suggest giving the radish kimchi a try. According to the brand, its products are licensed as safe to consume by the Singapore Food Agency.
#4: Lee’s Kimchi
Lee’s Kimchi currently offers two types of kimchi – the original and radish. Their products are low in salt, sugar, and made without added MSG and colouring. Both are priced at 15 SGD for a standard size of 700g.
To enjoy free delivery for orders above 50 SGD, apply coupon code <FREE50> before carting out. Orders under 50 SGD will be charged at 5 SGD per delivery to your stated address. You can also arrange for a pick-up at Sengkang/Choa Chu Kang by emailing them via [email protected].
#5: Craft & Culture
This last brand we’re about to introduce to you is slightly different from the ones we’ve seen in this article. The team behind Craft & Culture has over 20 years of fermentation experience and a background in medical science and organic chemistry.
Other than kimchi, they offer probiotic raw miso, kombucha, and more. Their Lactofermented Raw Kimchi is going at 16 SGD for their 500g option. You can also opt to purchase the 1kg option at 29.90 SGD.
Cold Storage just announced their Irresistible Asian Snacks campaign from now to 10 September. If you’re keen to get your hands on potato chips with coke sauce (yes, coke sauce!), Meiji gummy chocolates, mala potato chips, and more, read on.
First up on the list, we have Potato Chips with Coke Sauce. Coke sauce? Seriously? We’ve heard of all types of sauce but coke sauce is definitely something fresh. There’s also the plum sauce version here.
This tube of chewy green grape flavoured gummy chocolates is compact enough to fit into your handbag or backpack. It’s also available in strawberry flavour!
If you find yourself dozing off at work or during lectures, having a pack of UHA Cororo Fruit Juice Gummy Peach by your side can help keep you awake. Also available in the grape flavour.
Ooh mala potato chips is proudly created by a Singaporean whose mission is to bring out happiness with fiery spice. Other than mala potato chips, Cold Storage is also offering their cassava chips to the public. Buy two packs to save a dollar. Check out their official website here.
While major supermarkets are coming out with more products from the overseas markets, it’s hard to grab hold of the lesser-known brands. Here’s your chance to try on CW’s brownie chocolate chip cookies from Korea! There are ten in a pack.

Earlier today (13 August), we wrote about FairPrice’s weekly deals and 1-for-1 items on selected brands. If you’ve yet to check that out, click this link to see the discounted items you can get from now till 20 August.
Meanwhile, let’s have a look at what Giant is offering this week, from now till 19 August.
Honestly, how often do you change your bath towels? If you’re noticing wear and tear or a damp and musty smell even after washing, it’s time to get a new one. The bad smell is due to bacteria trapped within the towel fibres which can’t be eliminated through washing.
Rivercrest’s red wine has a pleasing balance of a variety of red wine grapes. Enjoy this bottle of goodness with pasta, cheese, or grilled beef this weekend. This product contains 11.5% alcohol.
And since we’re on the topic of alcohol, consider getting this European style six-can beer pack that’s brewed to perfection. This product contains 4% alcohol.
How do you like your peanut butter – creamy or chunky? I prefer the creamy version and that’s why I’m showcasing this. If you like the chunky version, get it here.
Do you know the benefits of eating kiwi? This little fruit is packed with nutrients like vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin E, folate, and potassium. It also has lots of antioxidants and is a good source of fibre.
Not going to lie… this bag of chips reminds me of parties. Oh, how we miss them. It’s my favourite to-bring food for house gatherings since it’s light to carry. Oops, just gave my secret away. Assorted flavours are available.
Save big on this promotion since a bottle is only 5.48 SGD! That’s 4.22 SGD of savings per bottle. Comes in a range of options like lavender + chamomile, rose + pomegranate, and more.
It’s okay to reward yourself with ice cream when there’s an ongoing promotion. Haagen Dazs going for two for 19.90 SGD! Other than Japanese Matcha green tea, it comes in assorted flavours like Belgian chocolate, salted caramel, white peach & raspberry, and more.
For peeps who are on a diet but can’t give up milo, making your own milo is better than dabao-ing. That’s because you can skip the condensed milk or sugar by making a cup yourself. A pack goes for approximately 7.98 SGD if you buy two.
A pack of five for only 1.93 SGD. Say what?! That’s less than 40 cents per pack of noodles. Comes in other flavours like mee goreng, charmee, Thai tom yam, and more.
While most of us are still working from home, it’s easy to grab that bag of chips or reach for that slice of cake in the fridge. If that is you, stock up on fruits as a healthier tea time snack alternative. A black plum contains about 75 calories only! In fact, they have properties that may help with blood sugar control.
Sourced from the finest tea leaves origin, carefully and delicately harvested, Yeo’s Jasmine Green Tea has the robust aroma of quality green tea and also a calming Jasmine floral note. Lower in sugar, it is best enjoyed on its own or as a complement to dishes. Save 52 cents per bottle when you buy two!
This is not a scam. It is only 2.50 SGD per pack if you buy two! This nutritious white meat fish comes skinless and boneless for you to whip up quick, delicious dishes for the family.
