Comforting Korean Flavours at Soul-ju

Soul-ju in Sheung Wan brings a cosy and relaxed Korean dining experience to the neighbourhood, offering a menu built around their house-made kimchi — bright, flavourful and used in inventive ways. From their crispy kimchi pancakes to tender grilled beef short ribs, every dish celebrates this signature ingredient with creativity and warmth.

The menu reads like a greatest-hits list of Korean comfort food. Seafood pancakes arrive golden and crisp, while fried chicken offers the perfect balance of crunch and juiciness. The kimchi fried rice with pork belly and cheese is rich, satisfying and deeply moreish. A must-try pairing: their kimchi pancakes with an ice-cold grape soda — simple, nostalgic and impossible to resist.

Lunch sets at Soul-ju offer impressive value, each served with complimentary drinks. The side-dish bibimbap is a hearty favourite, featuring four banchan of your choice along with peach tea or corn silk tea, making it a filling and comforting midday treat.

With its welcoming atmosphere and flavour-packed dishes, Soul-ju stands out as Sheung Wan’s newest Korean contender — a place where homestyle cooking, creativity and comfort come together beautifully.
