Korean food has became as famous as Japanese cuisine over the last decade. It is yummy yet easy enough to prepare. And here's a Korean supermarket in Jakarta for you to check out if you want to whip up some nice korean dishes at home or get some korean snacks.
MGH (Mu Gung Hwa) appparently a supplier of korean groceries here in Jakarta, have their own stores around Jakarta. I went to the one at Jl. Senayan (it's not at Senayan though! Nearer to Senopati) which is the nearest to me.
They also sell poultry and beef which looked relatively fresh, better than some Daily supermarkets. There's also a section where one could get fresh rice cakes and homemade kimchi/radish/etc. Be warned to check the prices before you head to the cashier; while most are reasonably priced, some imported items seemed to be overly expensive. I bought a can of luncheon meat for 60,000 (bout 6usd)...really expensive for luncheon meat!
A small korean eatery is also connected to the supermarket which I spied some korean families having their meals there. I made a mental note that I would return to try. Haven't you heard a saying that if you can find the nationality of the cuisine having their meals in the restaurant, the place would probably be quite good.
If I were you, I would also drop by Indoguna Meat Shop for some fresh cuts of imported beef and salmon, it is only a short drive away. You may read my earlier post on Indoguna here.
