Wagyu Beef Kimchi Fried Hot-pot Rice: A Comforting Place to Begin
The Wagyu Beef Kimchi Fried Hot-pot Rice is the most natural starting point for diners who want a substantial main. Served in a hot stone bowl, it brings together beef, kimchi rice and egg in a preparation that invites mixing at the table.
The rice and the beef are perfectly a great match allowing you to taste the robust flavours.
Shrimp & Potato Pancake: A Different Kind of Sharing Plate
Its preparation combines shredded potato, shrimp and grated cheese, giving it a different character from a soft, batter-heavy pancake. Potato and seafood are an easy combination to understand, but the pancake format makes the dish particularly appealing as something to divide around the table.
Kimchi Cheese Tteokbokki Chicken Fries: The Indulgent Order
The Kimchi Cheese Tteokbokki Chicken Fries brings together fried chicken, melted cheese and Korean rice cakes, with kimchi and a savoury sauce completing the combination.
The chicken supplies the crisp component, the rice cakes introduce chew, and the cheese adds richness. Kimchi gives the combination a tangier dimension rather than leaving it entirely dependent on fried food and dairy.
Pine Nut Tofu Tiramisu Parfait: Leave Room for the Unexpected
The Pine Nut Tofu Tiramisu Parfait provides the most intriguing finish.
Its combination extends beyond tofu and pine nuts: the preparation also includes mascarpone cream and coffee-soaked ladyfingers beneath a matcha topping.It brings a lighter-feeling finish after the savoury dishes.
Come with an appetite for Korean comfort food—and keep an open mind about what tiramisu can be.
