MY FAV KOREA'S FOOD - KIMCHI
Kimchi represents Korea's best known food. Koreans serve kimchi at almost every meal, and few Koreans can last more than a few days before cravings get the better of them. During the 1988 Summer Olympic Games, thousands of foreigners were introduced to it for the first time. Despite a reputation for being spicy, most people usually develop a taste for it, and many foreigners also find themselves missing it after returning to their home country. In malaysia, i regularly bought it at Jaya Jusco Klang. It cost RM7.49 cent. I enjoy much eat kimchi with mee or rice, it same like salt cabbage in malaysia.
