Meal box review: A memorable taste of Korea In Jaru s meal kits, Korean food is complemented by Irish seasonal ingredients
about 13 hours ago
I always savour the moment when I first get off a plane, when I smell the air of a new country. Because every country smells different. I know, it will be a while before any of us are indulging in that sort of olfactory pleasure, but it is possible to get a little taste of farther shores with some of the meal kits that are available.
Every year, more than a million Koreans head to the Seomjin river in Jeolla province for the cherry blossom festival, which heralds the arrival of spring. The festival was cancelled this year but a postcard with a blaze of pink blossoms contrasting with the blue river water gives me a glimpse of what it is like. This is exactly what Gunmoo Kim had in mind when he developed his Jaru meal kits.
