Kankoku Hiroba (Korea Plaza) — Local services in Tokyo

This is your typical Korean supermarket. I want to get some Korean soybean paste and lettuce to wrap the beef in. And also some sliced green onions. I saw they have some Japanese wagyu beef trimming.

Good for regular shopping, away from the tourist crowds supermarkets nearer to Shin Okubo attract.

Corona note: they'll disinfect the basket handles for you, have full 360 plastic covers for their cashiers, and...
