I am looking for yummy fake meats and reasonable prices... though I have no idea what that would be in Korea. They dont have to be vegan, just meat free. Let me know what you know  |

E-Mart actually carries a new line of frozen stuff called Smart Eating. In the frozen area near the mandu, they have three veggie things. Soy mini-balls, Sweet and Sour Soybean, and Soy mini cutlets. In the refrigerator section, they have some little frozen hot dog sort of things. There are also a couple of restaurants that sell some stuff. The two I know of are Oh Se Gye Hyung in Insadong (http://www.go5.co.kr) and SM Chae Shik Buffet near Yangjae Station (site here: www.smvege.co.kr, map here: www.smvege.co.kr/bbs/board.php?bo_table=sm_1&wr_id=2). Hope these help! |

Well, I tried it, then discovered that it wasn't vegan  The Sweet and Sour Tofu was really good, the soy mini cutlets are good but really need to be pan-fried in a lot of vegetable oil, and the soy min-balls didn't make me fall in love with them, but I'd say they're still worth trying. I haven't tried the soy mini-hot dog things, because I learned where they were as I learned that they weren't vegan, but a vegetarian friend tells me that they're quite nice. The Sweet and Sour is the quickest and easiest meal, in my opinion. The cutlets aren't quite a full meal by themselves, but they're more versatile. The soy mini balls seem to have the most potential, but I couldn't really figure out what to do with them. |

hi there, i've never ordered from this place because honestly the idea of fake meat doesn't appeal to me, but it might be worth a try for someone who is interested... www.vegefood.co.kr |
