With super swanky interiors and fuss-free and straightforward Korean street food, Kimpo is the place where Dubai's energetic soul meets Seoul's zapping soul. Kimpo, which can be found at Conrad Dubai, is being headed up by cook Sung Choul Lee (a South-Korean native with over 15 years of experience).

True-blue Korean street food is their only plan, and not trying the Chimaek – chicken and maekju- is a golden opportunity missed. They offer a bona fide chimaek experience - a matching of fried chicken and hops, which is incredibly well known in Korea. In addition to fried chicken, the menu features an array of East Asian specialities, each with a twist, including a bulgogi sloppy joe served with kimchi and a homemade barbecue sauce, an “east-meets-west” take on tacos served with slow-cooked minced meat, pickled onions, kimchi mayonnaise and lettuce, and a pizza topped with salmon, kimchi mayonnaise, yuzu jelly and sesame seeds. With fresh and natural ingredients, Kimpo serves fantastic food that lets the flavours and aromas of authentic Korean street food shine.
