Gigi's Oriental Market

Best oriental market! Gigi is a sweetheart. The place is clean and well stocked. She makes the best kimchi too! I don't go anywhere else

They have an amazing selection of ramen. And other foods. The store feels very authentic and the service was amazing! I felt very welcomed!

Whyyyyyy have in waited so long to try this store???!! It's my new favorite spot in all of Lakeland! I walked in and was immediately in awe. Everything.... EVERYTHING you could need for an Asian dish is right here! Even the appliances to cook on. Want ramen? There's an entire aisle. Want frozen goods? Got them. Want snacks? Check! Need a Korean barbecue? Or rice cooker? Or utensils? Chopsticks? They're there! Korean ice cream, even. Even a couple things for BTS ARMY. There are Chinese, Korean and Japanese goodies. Gigi even makes her own kimchi, people! It's on the refrigerator and you have to try it!! And prices are super great!! Speaking of Gigi, she is a gem!! She's the sweetest thing, absolutely adorable. So helpful and patient and kind. As soon as I left, I couldn't wait to go back. I was so excited, I didn't take many pics; next time! Because, there WILL be a next time.

GIGI'S KIMCHI IS THE BEST AROUND, IF YOU HAVENT HAD IT YET, YOU ARE SLACKING Also Gigi and her family/ employees are super sweet and genuine. The shop is super clean and has a huge variety of orienting goods, including candy, ramen, and misc fresh veggies! Again, don't forget to buy her kimchi! It's phenomenal! I have a hard time choosing between them all!

We love going to see Mrs. Gigi! She has such a great selection, and her kimchi is the BEST I've found.

Gigi is so wonderful! She's very friendly and helpful. We live in Winter Haven, and we have an asian market in WH, but I just adore Gigi so much that we drive to her store. And she has the shirataki noodles I've been looking for! What a great little store. I get a lot of really good ramen here too. She sells a little bit of everything, I love that she has hot pot stuff too. There's even bulgogi meat, rice, candies, cookware, frozen dumplings, kimchi. Please give her business, she deserves it!

I've driven by this place countless times, but today I stopped in to check it out. I'm so glad I did! I picked up various packs of spicy noodles and some candy for my kids. The owner was so friendly and you tell she loves the community and her customers. She recommended a few other types of noodles for me to try and bok choy kimchee. The minute I got home I tried the kimchee and it was SO flavorful!! Definitely not spicy, so it will be a good side item to pretty much any meat dish. The store is filled with all types of goodies, so I'll be back.

Lovely shop. The kimchee is so YUM! Nice choices for ramen. And lots of frozen dumplings in the back cooler. I stock up on things like chili oil, about once a month. Always clean and friendly.

I knew of Gigi's Korean Store for a few months but had never stopped in until the last couple of weeks. I love Pho and wanted to try to make my own so I finally pulled in at lunch time. What a wonderful family operation! Mom, Dad and Daughter are all so kind and helpful. It's like a wonderland of exotic ingredients that I want to learn more about. If your lunch breaks are boring, stop in here and have a little fun browsing the aisles, picking up some tasty seaweed (low calorie, low sodium) snacks and round up the ingredients for some Pho. I made 7 quarts of broth. It was a blast and came out delicious! ...check out my book-"Herman" by Howard Randolph on Amazon.com

Great place and All the ingredients you need @ GiGi's! Especially good is the Miligrosa rice using a 1 to 1 ratio rice to water. Didn't have to leave the house to make Lemongrass Chicken (recipe at CarlsbadCRAVINGS.com) as we had everything stockpiled from GiGi's stuffed in our pantry and freezers. Next week isexperimenting with rice noodles. Go GiGi!!!
