Korean Food in Abu Dhabi

It's nearly impossible to not fall in love with Korean food, which features meat that is grilled right on the table in front of you, steaming hot stews, chilies, and pickles.

I'm going to share 10 of the best-tasting dishes from Korean cuisine with you in this food guide.

Now is the time to eat delicious Korean food in Abu Dhabi.

1. Kimchi I'm going to start this South Korean food list with something that isn't really a dish at all, but is crucial to any Korean meal: KIMCHI. While there are numerous varieties of kimchi, the most common is made from napa cabbage that has been preserved and lightly fermented in bright red chili flakes. You're on your way to becoming a Korean food connoisseur if you enjoy kimchi!

2. Samgyeopsal A South Korean foodie favorite is fatty slices of pork belly grilled right in front of your nose. With a few slabs of this incredibly tasty pork and garnishes of lettuce leaves, garlic, and chili paste, you've got a flavor to remember.

3. Bulgogi Pork Bulgogi is another well-known Korean barbecued meat specialty. While bulgogi is traditionally made with beef, it can also be made with thin strips of pork or chicken. Before grilling, the meat is marinated in sweet soy sauce, garlic, and sesame oil. The version I ate above came from Dwaeji Bulgogi, a New Valley restaurant in Seoul that specializes in pork bulgogi.

4. Stew for a Hangover When I first arrived in South Korea, I was eager to try the famous Korean hangover stew. It arrived in a steaming earthenware dish. Haejangguk comes in a variety of flavors, but the one I had was made with pork spine bones. The broth was rich and spicy, with tender chunks of fatty pork and Korean chili paste as flavors.

5. Stew with Soft Tofu Sundubu Jjigae is a flavorful Korean dish served in a flaming hot pot. There isn't much more comforting on a cold rainy day than this dish, which is made with super soft tofu, a few bits of seafood, addictive kimchi soup, and an egg thrown on top.

6.Soup with Korean Ox Bones The highlight of Korean seolleongtang is ox bones simmered on low heat for hours and hours. The dish is served with a few light noodles, beef slices, and green onions. The broth is delivered unsalted and unseasoned, so season with salt, pepper, chili paste, and extra green onions to taste.

7.Korean Mixed Rice The cold version, like the Dolsot Bibimbap mentioned above, is served in a metal pot. Bibimbap is a fantastic lunchtime delight when all of the ingredients are combined. I liked both the cold and hot versions, but if I had to choose, I'd go with the scorching hot dolsot bibimbap.

8.Japchae I've always loved stir-fried translucent noodles. The Korean version is delicious, with chewy stir-fried sweet potato noodles mixed with slivers of carrots, cucumber, onions, mushrooms, and occasionally meat pieces. Japchae has a mouthwatering fragrance and a flavor you'll love. It's fried in sesame oil and garnished with toasted sesame seeds.

9.Tteokbokki If you're looking for Korean street food, tteokbokki is probably the first thing you'll come across - it's all over Seoul! It's the poke bowl of Seoul, a popular, easy-to-eat, and delicious dish.

10.Gimbap The SPAM musubi was created in Hawaii using original Japanese ideas, and the gimbap was created by Koreans. Gimbap is one of South Korea's most popular foods, whether eaten as a meal or as an on-the-go snack. Gimbap is an assemblage of sushi rice, a few Korean pickled vegetables, spinach, and ham wrapped in sheets of toasted seaweed, similar to a Japanese style hand roll.
