About 41 minutes by car from Naha Airport. This Korean restaurant is located in Chatan-cho in the central part of the main island of Okinawa, which is famous for its international restaurants. In Okinawa, you can enjoy not only Okinawan cuisine, but also tacos, taco rice, hamburgers, steaks, and other international gourmet foods, and we would like to introduce a superb Korean restaurant.
Point 1: What are the characteristics of the Sunduhu of “Sunduhu Dubbi Dubbi Dubbi”?
The Korean restaurant with the comical and complicated name “Sundufu Dubi Dubu” is located in Chatan-cho, one of the most popular tourist destinations in Okinawa, where you can enjoy gourmet food from many different countries.
Sundubu is a type of Korean jjigae (stew), in which seafood, tofu, and vegetables are stewed together. Only in Korea, gochujang (red pepper paste) and chili seasonings are used, and it is generally spicy. However, the key to the flavor is how much of the ingredients’ extracts are used in the spiciness.
The Sunduh at Sunduh Dubi Dubu has meat-based, seafood-based, mushroom-based, and all-inclusive specials.
The prices are a bit on the expensive side, ranging from 1,180 yen to 1,680 yen, but you can customize it to your liking by choosing rice in a feather dumpling, healthy vermicelli, and spiciness.
You can also add toppings such as Korean seaweed, scallions, butter, and meat dumplings for an additional charge!
The white rice, which is cooked in a winged rice oven after the order is placed, is also excellent and enhances the taste of the sundufu!
Point 2: I also recommend the “Honey Mustard Chicken Cheese” from “Sunduh Dubi Dubu”!
There is more than just sunduhu on the menu at Sunduhu Dubbi Dubu.
What foreigners call “Honey Mustard Chicken Cheese” is a Korean dish called “Yangnyeom Chicken,” which is grilled chicken thigh or breast meat seasoned sweet and spicy with gochujang, ketchup, grated garlic, soy sauce, mirin, and sesame seeds.
It is also spicy, but in the modern style, honey, mustard and cheese are used to accentuate the flavor!
The traditional “yangnyeom chicken” has been transformed into a modern Korean dish.
It is spicy, but the honey and mustard flavor makes it very easy to eat.
Even Korean-Americans in the U.S. military in Okinawa give it their stamp of approval, making it a rare find in Okinawa, where Korean food is scarce.
Point 3: What are the other items on the “Sunduh Dubi Dubu” menu?
Since Sunduhu Dubi Dubu is a Korean restaurant, there are many other menu items besides Sunduhu. For summer, the colorful looking “Tomato Cold Noodle” is a nice twist on the authentic North Korean cold noodle dish!
The chewy noodles, refreshing soup, and sour tomatoes go well together!
And the “Family Namul Pack,” which is also available for take-out, is super easy to make: heat sesame oil on a home hot plate or frying pan, add rice and cook it, then put the namul pack on top and stir to cook! Stone-roasted bibimbap is ready to serve.
In summer, it is also a good choice for the rice at the end of a beach party!
