Does anyone know where I can buy ready-made Hummus and Tzatziki in Seoul?

Thanks

Middle Eastern or Greek restaurants? Haven't seen any readymade.

Why not make your own? It's very easy and you'll find a billion recipes on google or tastespotting.com

tzatziki is easy enough to make. Hummus I think you need a blender, or a mortar and pestle and a case of beer.

I have made tzatziki here, and it was pretty good.

Damn, now I'm craving too....

I have a rip off of the magic bullet blenders. That would be find for making hummus. Will I be able to find chic peas in Incheon?

Don't know about Incheon but they're readily available in Itaewon in any of the middle eastern type markets. Head for the mosque.

Which restaurants in Seoul will do takeaway? I'm too lazy to make it. Ideally I just want to go and get some tonight, pop to the Austrian Deli for bread, then stuff my face.

Getting good food in Korea is like getting drugs in other countries--you need contacts and a supplier.

I'm sure you can get hummus from one of the mediterranean restaurants in Itaewon.

I want a kebab, now. This thread is guaranteed to make you fat.

Anyway even if you try to make your own hummus, it would be hard to find tahini sauce....

If I were you, I would make it myself. It would be much cheaper. It's not hard to make hummus. I have never made hummus before, but I am sure I can handle it no problem. I have seen it made many times. It gives you a lot of protein. You can buy garbanzo beans quite easily.
You will only get a small amount if you do take out. It's, basically, pointless since you won't get a large amount of the stuff.

I love hummus.... I love it when it's very garlicky. I also saw a recipe for curried hummus. That's something I've never tried.
