Always delicious Kimchi. No mark down as they are always fresh Kimchi. But my last batch, didn't have the sizzle. It didn't ferment as well. Perhaps not enough fermenting starter? I don't know ow... See more

I've been eating Mr Kimchi for years now, it's a bit on the pricey side but it's honestly the best kimchi you can get in the UK where there are no local Korean shops. Supermarket kimchi is so bland... See more

I recently bought kimchi from this shop, and I must say, the quality is just like homemade. It tastes fresh, without that mass-produced flavor you often get from bigger brands. I'm really happy I fou... See more

Wonderful service…

Wonderful service especially being easily to change the delivery date after ordering, delivered on time - the Kimchi is a present so it's not been tasted yet but I'm sure it will be delicious. Thank you so much!

Excellent addition to our diet

It’s the first time we have bought from Mr Kimchi mail order . It as a good experience, website easy to navigate, we were kept unto date with progress of the order which arrived when MrK said it would. It goes without saying that the kimchi is delicious.

Quality kimchi

Quality kimchi. The food provided by Mr. Kimchi - set meals and, Kimchi itself, are of excellent quality. I was very impressed. All 6kg of Kimchi fitted into my 'Crazy Korean Cooking' container and stores well in the fridge. The price is good, the food quality is good - what's not to like?

Thanks Mr Kimchi! :)

Just had my second 2KG bag of Kimchi delivered and I've been so excited! The first bag was so delicious. I let it ferment at room temperature for a few days before decanting into a tall sealed jar and popped it in the fridge.
I've been eating traditional Japanese cuisine recently - bowl of rice, miso soup, a protein (usually salmon or haddock), and steamed vegetables. This kimchi just tops of the meal and is a great way to get some extra Vitamin A, B and C, as well as all that healthy bacteria.
Can't wait for the second bag to ferment so I can dig in!!

I lived in Korea for a long time and…

I lived in Korea for a long time and this is the real deal! Authentic flavour, natural ingredients, great delivery. My only issue is that I need to start ordering more as me and my husband love it :) It's also a great way to help your gut as it is a fermented food. win win win.

Authentic homemade kimchi

Whenever I get a craving for Kimchi, I go to Mr Kimchi. You can tell from the taste that it is authentic. The vegan kimchi also taste delicious.

Kimchi

It’s my first order from Mr kimchi. I’ve ordered 2 kgs of kimchi, It came well packed, still taste like new kimchi though it has good kick to it. I’ve left it out to ferment, it’s been 4 days but I think it’ll need over a week to get that tangy taste. Lacks crunchiness a little, hopefully turns out ok when well fermented.

Fantastic kimchi

The kimchi is fantastic and the fact that you're able to decide for yourself how much you want to ferment it is great! Normal, packaged kimchi from the store is fine but is usually to fermented for my taste, so this was perfect.

I’m addicted to MrKimchi!!

I’m on my third 2kg batch of Kimchi in under 8 weeks. This is absolutely delicious and is sooo moreish. I eat it on its own and I also add it to my ramen noodles 🍜 dishes. Either way, it’s outstanding and would highly recommend anybody to get stuck into their Kimchi.
I’ve tried dozens of brands but MrKimchi is, hands down, THE best and most authentic.

YUM!

YUM!

been working on increasing my range of probiotic foods recently and this Kimchi is the best I have tasted. And I have tried most of the supermarket brands.

Highly recommend - Although next time I will be buying the jars as decanting from the 2kg bag was a nightmare.
