Relive your Korean POCHA dining experience in SG😍🇰🇷

Annyeong ✨ here with another food review!! This time, I tried the newly revamped Korean restaurant, POCHA! and revisited my favourite street food/takeaway eats when I was in Korea 🇰🇷😩💞

✨ 𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗡𝗗𝗢𝗚 ($𝟲.𝟵𝟬) 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗢𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗢 𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗡𝗗𝗢𝗚 ($𝟳.𝟵𝟬)

- MY FAVE!!!

- Both corn dogs were fried really well and the cheese pulls for both were 💯

- I’ve had mediocre corn dogs where the flour was mushy but these ones were airy and crispy! Super yomz

- Price wise, just a tiiiny bit pricey imo (by like a dollar) but I think super worth for the quality you get (:

- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

✨ 𝗛𝗢𝗡𝗘𝗬 𝗣𝗘𝗔𝗡𝗨𝗧 𝗛𝗢𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗢𝗞 ($𝟱.𝟵𝟬)

- This was served piping hot which reminded me of how it was served on the streets of Korea too!

- I didn’t eat this till towards the end of my meal and they were still hot!

- The hotteok is packed with the honey that oozes out when you bite into it too!

- Honey was very sweet and flavourful. I think the filling to dough ratio was just right for me (:

- Price wise, 2 pieces for $5.90 is worth it imo!

- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (can’t really beat the ones in Korea ofc 😭 but close enough!)

✨ 𝗝𝗔𝗣𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗘 𝗛𝗢𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗢𝗞 ($𝟳.𝟵𝟬)

- When I saw this I was like hmmmmm savoury hotteok? 🧐 let’s give it a shot

- I’d say the flavour combination was actually not bad!! If you’re someone who loves carbs and savoury food I think this would be right down your alley

- Also, I was never a fan of japchae but this particular japchae was very flavourful and caught me by surprise. Have to say, first time I actually liked japchae and I’m being serious… 🫥

- A little expensive price wise, but worth a try! Defo can’t beat the honey hotteok imo!

- ⭐️⭐️⭐️

✨ 𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗔𝗡𝗚-𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗢𝗞𝗕𝗢𝗞𝗜 ($𝟭𝟭.𝟵𝟬)

- A staple must order!!

- Came with egg and fish cake (as it should 💅🏻) but you can add more toppings including cheese at additional cost.

- Taste wise, it’s just as what you’d imagine! So I can’t say much other than it’s good and what you’d expect when ordering tteokbokki (:

- Texture of the tteokbokki on the other hand… was a little mushy 😭 I wish it was much more chewy and QQ!! Perhaps just a bad batch that day which I hope is the case!

- Having tteokboki in sg ain’t cheap so price wise I expected this! Would defo be more worth if the texture of tteokbokki was good!

- ⭐️⭐️⭐️

🥘 Other non-street food I tried!

✨ 𝗚𝗔𝗡𝗝𝗔𝗡𝗚 𝗚𝗘𝗝𝗔𝗡𝗚 ($𝟭𝟱.𝟵𝟬++)

- Not your usual marinated crab as it’s marinated with their in house soy sauce.

- The crab is cut in half and you’re provided gloves to eat it with

- The crab meat came out of the shell easily and tasted very sweet!

- In terms of freshness, wouldn’t say it’s the freshest, BUT does not taste like it’s not fresh.

- Would be even more satisfying if it could be enjoyed with rice, sesame oil and seaweed on the side 🤤

- Price increases depending on how many crabs you order. Overall I think it’s really quite worth!

- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

✨ 𝗦𝗢𝗝𝗨 𝗕𝗢𝗠𝗕 ($𝟮𝟴.𝟵𝟬)

- Includes 2 bottles of Terra and 2 bottles of a Chamisul soju

- Is it really a Korean street food meal if you don’t get turnt, and with proper Korean alcohol no less???

- honestly, $30 for 2 beers and 2 sojus really quite worth!!

- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

✨ 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘂: 𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗥 𝗙𝗥𝗬 𝗦𝗣𝗜𝗖𝗬 𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗡 𝗥𝗔𝗠𝗬𝗘𝗢𝗡 𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗦

- The fried chicken stir fry was extra cheesy so the cucumbers helped cut through the cheesiness!

- If you LOVE cheesy ramyeon this would be right up your alley!!

- The cheese & bacon stir fry on the other hand, had a much more delicate cheese flavour and reminded me of carbonara!

- Both ramyeon dishes had a fried egg with semi runny yolk which is a plus!!

- The fried chicken ramyeon felt like comfort food and something you’d cook at home on a rainy day, while the cheese & bacon ramyeon felt a bit more elevated.

- Between the 2, my friends and I really enjoyed the cheese & bacon stir fry more! We aren’t really cheese people 😭 but either way both made for a nice and hearty meal!

- ⭐️⭐️⭐️

💭 FINAL THOUGHTS

- On top of what I had, they actually have a WIDE menu including as seen on K-drama/movie foods like the famous Parasite Ramdon!!!

- The drinks menu is also really wide!! Besides soju bombs, there are other soju cocktails and even the Korean pouch drinks that you can find at CU !!! Bruh 😩✨ it’s really giving broke/rabz KR travels and I’m living for itttt

- Overall, I think POCHA! is a great place to go if you’re looking to satisfy your Korean food cravings! Can’t say the KR food is the BEST I’ve ever had in SG but it definitely scratches that itch. And the authentic and wide menu is something to look forward too!

- Will defo come back to try other things on the menu the next time I’m craving some Korean classic street food dishes
