Unfortunately, to my knowledge, HP is unavailable in Korea. Like good teabags and Colmans Mustard.

Those are the three things which form the core of my 'precious things' box which my dear ol' Mum sends from the UK twice a year.



No doubt some yankee doodle dandy will come along and tell you that A1 Steak Sauce is the same thing. It's not. It's revolting compared to HP.

They sell it at Home Plus under the Tesco brand. It's cheap too. Look in the condiments aisle.

Ahaha. I remember my English friend telling me that "brown sauce" is the ultimate marker of low class in England.

no.....HP sauce is thicker, A1 is thinner and runnier.

HP is far superior.

Damn the OP, reminding me of HP sauce....... cravings Laughing

hp sauce is sadly unavailable. i usually go to china, the philipines or thailand once a year. and it can be bought there. i stocked up in shanghai. homeplus do sell it. its tesco finest brown sauce from back home. but for me, its not true brown sauce. its gotta be sent from the uk i feel.

and there right A1 is not the same. if you find it though. let us know. damn that would be good.

HP sauce is great on breakfast sausages and Kraft dinner.
I used to put HP sauce and Ketchup on French fries.
Pretty good on those low quality battered fish sticks

Comparing A-1 sauce to HP sauce is like compairing British bangers to Korean mini Vienna Sausages. There's just no comparison.
