Do any of you know any stores that sell Old El Paso Taco Seasoning (or something similar)?

There's a shop near the Hyundai Dept. Store in Sinchon that is always stocked. Head out exit (1 or 2?) to walk towards the department store and hang a right on the street just past it (where the KFC is). You'll see a small park on your left. The store faces the park and is right next to a 닭갈비 joint. Red sign, white lettering, "여기에..." is the name.

The guy carries tons of imported goods, taco seasoning being one of them. Knock yourself out.

We have a small import market in Jeonju that sells taco seasoning for W4500. Outrageous!

Just do what the Korean Kabab places do.

Just a dab of honey mustard and sprinkle some corn on them. Then serve them with a side order of sweet pickles.

I just combine some cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, chili powder, salt, and use fresh finely minced onion and garlic. Always turns out fantastic. All spices bought in Korea, as well.

You can buy a half kilo (or thereabouts) of it from Costco.

Yeah, the "Cajun Seasoning" or whatever it is there makes a pretty decent substitute.

That Cajun seasoning goes very well with fish and it's cheap- less than 5,000 won the last time I bought it.

I shake and bake chicken with the cajun seasoning and it turns out just great. I have one of those small microwave/oven ranges and it's been a very good investment.

There's also Fajita seasoning at Costco, too.
