Standard Porridge

Bonjuk is a franchise specializing in Korean porridge (juk 죽). According to their own statement, the following dishes from the regular menu do not contain animal ingredients or wheat:

- Sweet Pumpkin Porridge (danhobak-juk 단호박죽)
- Red Bean Porridge (dongji patjuk 동지팥죽)
- Sweet Red Bean Porridge (danpatjuk 단팥죽)
- Black Sesame Porridge (heugimja-juk 흑임자죽)
- Pine Nut Porridge (jatjuk 잣죽)
- Mung Bean Porridge (nokdujuk 녹두죽)
- White Porridge (hwinjuk 흰죽)

Each serving of porridge comes with complimtentary side dishes, which are not vegan - except for the watery radish kimchi (dongchimi 동치미)! Better tell them while ordering, if you don't want the side dishes.

Generally, Bonjuk's porridges are a standard in Korea and accepted by young and old, particularly when one feels sick. Prices range around 10.000 KRW and serving size is filling.

I personally don't eat Juk regularly, but Bonjuk has been a reliable source for plant-based food when there were no other options.

Pros: many options , taste ok, big portions
