Sinjeon Topokki – New Korean Restaurant Opening Today

Sinjeon Topokki, a popular restaurant chain in Seoul known for its Korean street food is opening in Kuwait today (August 1st).

Sinjeon Topokki began in 1999 as a small, humble food stand in South Korea. Since then, it has grown into a global phenomenon with over 700 branches worldwide, and the Kuwait location will be their first in the Middle East.

Although we have quite a few Korean restaurants in Kuwait already, what will set Sinjeon apart is the topokki. If you’ve never had it before, they’re small cylinder-shaped rice noodles which I like to describe as the Korean version of gnocchi (Don’t unfollow me for this!). They’ll have 4 different bases (sauces) for you to pick from, and you can also choose to add different veggies and proteins to it. In addition to topokki they do have traditional Korean dishes on the menu including bibimbap, noodles, and curries.

Sinjeon is located in the industrial part of Shuwaikh, right next to Eat Softie, and in the same complex as Haraka Center (Google Maps). Their opening hours are from 2PM to 10PM and to book WhatsApp them on +965 41040604 or through the WhatsApp button on their Instagram account @sinjeon_kw
