Explore more than the menu

Learn meals and drinks, ingredients and seasonings, flavours and textures, cooking methods and kitchen tools, restaurant and cafe vocabulary, and groceries, storage and food safety. Useful everyday actions are included alongside food terms.

The collection contains 898 distinct Korean headwords across 915 dictionary entries. Entries sharing a spelling can have different meanings or grammatical roles.

There are 265 entries shared with Travel and 650 entries not included in Travel. The Business collection also shares 66 entries with this collection.

All entries come from our existing seven level decks. If you already have all seven, you already have these entries and cards. All original meanings and example sentences are retained, so some examples and additional meanings cover situations beyond food. This is a vocabulary selection, not a recipe book or a complete phrasebook.

How the cards work

Each entry includes the existing meaning card and sentence recall card. Read the English explanation, then practise recalling the Korean word in its original example sentence. Pronunciation uses your device’s Korean text-to-speech voice.

Import one APKG file to open all seven level decks, numbered 01 to 07. These cards reuse the original note identities; overlapping entries are not designed as separate copies with independent learning progress.

About this selection

Words were selected by their existing dictionary meanings. For example, 주식 meaning staple food is included, while the separate entry meaning shares or stocks is excluded. This is an editorial selection, not a frequency ranking. No new card text, translations or food-specific example sentences were created.
