Get ready for something exclusive, Dubai peeps! Korean food lovers in the house? Cupbop, the popular Korean street food sensation, is about to make its mark in the UAE. It’s bringing its fiery flavours to the town!. And if that’s not enough, Cupbop will also be opening a flagship store at JBR, Dubai, later this year. So, if you’re ready to spice up your food routine, it’s time to say hello to Cupbop.
Cupbop, A Global Success Story, Now Available In Dubai
Opening this summer at Ibn Battuta Mall, this fun and fast food concept will definitely change Dubai’s culinary scene. It’s bringing in its vibrant, flavour-packed bowls to the Emirates. Cupbop’s journey started in 2013, thanks to Junghun Song, the brainchild who launched it with just four recipes and a food truck in Salt Lake City. With bold flavours and the perfect mix of sweetness and heat, Cupbop is here to win hearts. The food truck quickly became a sensation, with people lining up to experience the now-legendary “crazy food truck guys”. All of this just to taste some Korean comfort food.
In 2020, Junghun teamed up with Dok Kwon, a fellow Korean food enthusiast. Their creations caught the attention of Shark Tank judges. Fast forward to today, Cupbop has grown into a beloved brand with 47 locations across the U.S. and 160 stores worldwide. Now, it’s coming to UAE’s to turn on their magical experience.
A Menu Packed With Korean Street Food Sensations
A simple menu packed with bold flavours is what you should expect at Cupbop. The bowls would be filled with juicy meats, crispy veggies and topped with perfectly seasoned rice. Expect a heavy drizzle of signature sauces ranging from sweet to seriously spicy. You can choose your favourite but we would definitely recommend their “secret sauce” that boosts a flavour that is perfect for people who can eat medium spicy.
You should order B BOP, featuring smoky Bulgogi beef and KKO KKO BOP with its juicy BBQ chicken. ROCK BOP is a tangy fried chicken dish, while the KRUNCH BOP is chicken katsu and is for the ones who love crispy chicken.
Don’t worry, vegetarians, Cupbop has not forgotten you. They have VEGGIE BOP on their menu that is all about Korean-style vegetables, and the DOOCHI BOP which is crispy fried tofu that offers something different from classic Korean flavours.
