Zanchi Korean Restaurant is an authentic Korean dining room at 113 to 115 Praed Street in Paddington. Its name translates as feast or festival, reflecting a style of eating built around abundant food and company. Barbecue grills installed at the tables give guests an immersive way to cook and share meat while enjoying the lively social character of a traditional Korean meal.
Cold side dishes introduce bright flavours and varied textures through cabbage kimchi, radish kimchi, cucumber kimchi, sesame spinach and seasoned bean sprouts. Starters include seafood pancake with spring onion, kimchi pancake, pan fried chicken dumplings and rice cakes with fish cakes in chilli sauce. These plates can be ordered individually or combined into a generous spread for the table.
The barbecue selection covers beef bulgogi, marinated beef ribs, sirloin, beef tongue, pork belly and chicken or pork seasoned with chilli. Lettuce, fresh garlic, chilli and spring onion in sesame oil let diners build their own wraps around the freshly cooked meat. Sweet soy marinades, savoury soybean sauce and sesame oil give each cut a distinct balance of richness and seasoning.
Korean fried chicken, kimchi tofu and sizzling seafood expand the choice beyond the grill. Hot pots made for sharing include army stew, spicy fish and bulgogi with glass noodles, while individual soups range from ginseng chicken to kimchi, tofu and beef preparations. Bibimbap, kimchi fried rice, japchae and thick noodle soups complete a broad menu suited to both communal feasts and a substantial meal for one.
