Just as the name suggests, this foreign food store makes me incredibly happy. The first time I ever visited Happy Store in Haebangchon I was delighted to not only find frozen Morningstar products but also Shiner beers! For many of you, this may mean nothing, but Shiner is a beer that is brewed in Texas. At home I am not a huge fan of Shiner (I think only because Austin is full of local microbrews that make Shiner taste like cheap beer) but in Korea it's a great change from Cass and Hite. They also have a huge selection of other awesome beers and lots of foods from the homeland.

Located in Haebangchon, just up the hill from Beer O' Clock pizza, this place has easily become my favorite foreign food stores in Seoul.

Check out all this veggie goodness! After requesting Grillers and Chick-un patties, the store owner started keeping his freezer stocked with lots of different Morningstar products. He is so nice and has no problem making special orders. Most orders come within the next week.

Hi! Could you post more details about where this store is in Haebangchon? I'm from Houston and I would just about kill for some Shiner right now...
ReplyDeleteSure! Noksapyeong exit 2, walk 100 meters and then take the stairs under the street. Turn right at the first light next to Noxa and walk up the hill. Happy store will be on your left in about 200 meters or so. I haven't seen Shiner there in a while (I bought it all when I saw it there...) but the owner is really nice and has no problem placing orders for customers. If enough of us request it maybe he will keep it in store all the time!
