Bonjuk 본죽 - Nokdu
Bonjuk 본죽 - Nokdu specializes in Korean rice porridge with vegan-friendly options like black sesame, pumpkin, and mung bean varieties. The porridge comes with side dishes; the Dongchimi radish kimchi is vegan but other sides contain animal products, so it's best to specify preferences when ordering. Portions are generous, and many customers take leftovers home, reflecting a casual dining experience near a student area.
