I love No. 1 Sons! I haven't tried their kimchi, but I love both their District Dill and Half-Sour pickles. I like the Dilly Beans too.

A bit out of your way, but Seoul Food in Wheaton (yes, inside the Exxon) has excellent kimchi.

I didn't see or try kimchi, but when I got home, kimchi was the first thing listed on the card he'd tucked in with my order. I think he was an Asian American guy; though a lot of his stuff was midwestern pickle recipes.

Farmers market is a walking distance for me! Thank you!! I will check it out.

Oh no! I have to admit that I love vinegary taste. I love Hmart but was looking for something a lot closer.

Some Safeways and Giants have small jars too. I don't know how theirs taste. Give them a call?

TJ's stopped selling kimchi and I've been craving it. WF has it but it doesn't taste right. Any suggestions? TIA
