Korean comfort food has arrived at Bonchon in the form of two tasty new offerings: Loaded Bulgogi Fries and Korean Donuts.
The Korean Donuts are an essentially exciting new product as they will be added to the brand's permanent menu starting March 27, 2023. The sweet treats are a Korean take on a donut, known as Kkwabaegi. Kkwabaegi consists of soft, fluffy, twisted pastry that's been coated in cinnamon and sugar. The Korean Donuts can also be enjoyed with a side of Sweet Cream Dipping Sauce for a small fee. As Bonchon Chef Jae Park explains, "With the addition of our Loaded Bulgogi Fries and Korean Donuts, we are able to continue sharing Korean comfort food favorites with an American twist."
