A of Korean Provisions

Step inside JB Mart and you are immediately greeted by the sharp, savory aroma of house-made kimchi and the cooling scent of pre-packaged banchan lining the refrigerated aisles. Located in the bustling heart of Honolulu, this neighborhood staple functions as both a compact market and a reliable kitchen for those seeking authentic Korean comfort food without the fanfare of a sit-down bistro.

The Culinary Highlights

The real draw here is the hot food counter, which has developed a reputation among local office workers and residents for its consistent quality. Their beef bulgogi is charred just enough to impart a smoky depth, balancing the sweetness of the marinade. Locals frequent the counter for the spicy pork bowls, often served with a generous portion of steaming sticky rice and an assortment of rotating sides that reflect the traditional home-cooked style of the Korean peninsula.

Atmosphere and Local Nuance

The space is functional and efficient, designed for quick pickups rather than lingering. Expect the hum of industrial coolers and the rapid-fire energy of a busy lunch rush. While the aisles are narrow and the parking in the immediate vicinity can be a challenge during peak hours, the trade-off is high-quality, authentic flavors that are difficult to replicate at home. It is an ideal stop for anyone traversing the Honolulu urban core who wants to bypass the tourist-heavy eateries in favor of something grounded, quick, and undeniably flavorful.

It's a convenient shopping center however parking is challenging. I'm finding myself at Safeway around the corner more often to avoid the rat pack here. It's just not worth it.

wide variety of produce from multiple farms, make sure to shop around to find the fresh and best priced items. Several meat and fish market options too! Take your time to ask about their fresh catch and compare prices since they are all individual vendors.

AMAZING for fresh produce & fish & some Vietnamese & Filipino packaged foods & seasonings. A lot (most all ?) of the produce is from local farms and growers. Everything from bananas and bitter melon to tomatoes and moringa pods. Various stalls offer similar but different fruit and vegetable choices.

This Asian market is on Dillingham street between airport and Costco. There are more complimentary parking spaces for shoppers compared to the Chinatown near King & River Street. One can shop for Asian grossceries, seafoods, kitchen stuffs. However, if you are looking for tropical fruits, the market on King & River Street is still a better choice with varieties of fruits such as longan, lychee, soursop, rambutan, etc.

Wow. Entered Chinatown for local grocery shopping in my Google Maps and missed the fact this was “Chinatown Market Place” BUT it was just what I needed. A quick grocery shop for local and relatively cheaper prices. Shared plaza parking and street parking available. Multiple vendors inside the CMP, so purchase accordingly. Some cashiers take credit cards/ Apple Pay with $10. Min. Fresh veggies, local eggs, seafood, butcher meats, Filipino store vendors and bakery spot. Personally, I found the prices way more reasonable minus certain aspects compared to Foodland and Don Quixote and Costco. TIP: walk around the whole marketplace first to shop prices and selection. Worth it! This is now my “go to” local fresh veggie and fruit spot. Next time I’ll compare seafood and butcher meats! BONUS TIP: knife sharpener onsite! REMINDER: Bring your reusable bags!
