SPECIAL
Bibimbap is the signature Korean dish made by Sunmi at Stall 1. Meaning "mixed meal', Bibimbap is served in a very hot stone bowl. Warm white rice is topped with namul (sautéed and seasoned vegetables) and gochujang (chili pepper paste). A raw or fried egg and sliced meat (usually beef) is added and diners stir the ingredients before eating. Sunmi's nickname for the popular dish is "taxi driver food" as it's "mix, eat and go!!!"
