Le LUBU is the brainchild of three Vietnamese women residing in Finland who were unable to find authentic and delicious Korean kimchi in the Nordic region.

To remedy this, they took it upon themselves to perfect their own recipe, investing years of effort to hone their craft at their restaurant, Daruma. The kimchi was initially served as a side dish and incorporated into the restaurant's ramen offerings. The demand for their kimchi grew rapidly, and the women decided to embark on their kimchi journey under the moniker "Le Lubu," derived from the Vietnamese word for "busy."

Kimchi has something for everyone - from home cooks to seasoned professionals. The type of kimchi we are making is Chinese cabbage which is the most well- known version of kimchi in Korean.
