Bonjuk And Bibimbap Cafe - Seoul

Loved all their porridges pumpkin, red bean, mung bean. Super tasty and filling. Huge portions!

I got the soft tofu bibimbap (without broth or kimchi since someone said that wasn't vegan—could not confirm with staff since they didn't speak much English). It was really good.

As a vegan living in Korea, Bonjuk and Bimimbap is the ultimate relief' and my to-go restaurant around the entire peninsula. I am incredibly happy to find Bonjuk pretty much in every district. I admit it, I absolutely love Korean pumpkin porridge (or Hobak-juk) which is made with pumpkin, glutinous rice flour and some simple ttoek (glutinous rice cake). I always ask the staff to make it sugar free and it still tastes fantastic. The red bean and sweet potato (goguma) porridge are great too. I tried the tofu bibimbap once and it was fairly all right, but for culinary deliverance to a higher plane go for Hobak-juk. Everything about Bonjuk's vegan options is amazing. If you are feeling cold, sick, hungry, or you happen to enjoy porridge and thick soups I highly recommend it to you. Million times. If you know you cannot eat a big portion of food, it is better to get a take out (no extra charge) and enjoy the porridge at home, it will last you in fridge for days.

I love the pine nut porridge. Unfortunately, it is not so popular with foreigners, so some other locations may not have it. The tofu bibimbap is also delicious, but cannot be ordered as a dolsot. Large quantities. I always take my left-overs home in my lunch box. Be careful to ask them not to put the banchans. Appart from the cold radish soup, most are not-vegan. (The kimchi and the gochujang sauce should be okay for pescetarian)

We choose the vegetable bibimbap and it’s really good and only 7000 ₩
