When life gets a bit too hectic, sometimes all you need is a warm bowl of something real. That’s where Galbi-tang comes in. This traditional Korean short rib soup is comfort food at its finest and at Kimchi, we serve it just the way it’s meant to be: slow-simmered, deeply satisfying, and made with love every time.
Galbi-tang (갈비탕) is a clear beef soup made with short ribs, patiently simmered for hours until the meat becomes melt-in-your-mouth tender. The broth is light yet full-bodied, infused with garlic, onion, and Korean radish. It’s clean and calming like a reset button for your taste buds and your mood.
Served with warm rice and our signature banchan (Korean side dishes), this dish is more than a meal. It’s a moment of peace, a tradition on the table, and a favorite for both Korean food lovers and newcomers.
🧄 Rich Flavour, No Gimmicks Our broth is a slow labor of love. You’ll taste every hour it’s simmered, every ingredient chosen with care.
🥢 Honest Ingredients Quality beef, fresh vegetables, zero shortcuts. It's pure comfort in a bowl.
