Nongshim Gamjamyeon Big Bowl Spicy Review — GS25 Exclusive [Korean Food]

March 22, 2026 by PAKOC

Today I’m introducing Nongshim’s new cup noodle: Gamjamyeon Big Bowl (Spicy). This time, Nongshim launched several cup noodle items across different convenience stores at the same time, including discontinued or previously unreleased products. This one is a GS25 exclusive. The bagged noodles are still on sale. However, this is the first time they’ve released it as a cup noodle, especially in a spicy version. The chewy noodles pair really well with the hot, peppery broth. Now, let’s take a closer look at what it’s like.

Burger King Quattro Cheese Quattro Pepper Cube Steak Review [Korean Food]

March 22, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello, this is Paco. Today’s new Burger King item is the Quattro Cheese Quattro Pepper Cube Steak, a new menu that combines the existing Quattro Cheese with the Quattro Pepper menu released in January 2026. As long as the name is, the lineup is just as impressive. It is a premium-style burger that adds the flavors of four cheeses and four kinds of pepper. Compared with past items that simply added a few ingredients to the original recipe, this one is said to be more special because it merges two menus into one. Still, it is a limited-time item sold only until April 8, so I ordered it right away. Now, let’s take a look at what it’s like.

Nongshim Rabbokkuri Cup Noodle Review [Korean Food]

March 21, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today I’m introducing Nongshim’s new ramen item, Labokguri, a new addition to the Neoguri Stir-Fried Cup Ramen lineup. It’s said to taste like spicy seafood rabokki. As the name suggests, it feels like a pretty unique concept.

To be honest, I’ve never tried anything like spicy seafood rabokki before, so I’m really curious what it will taste like. Could it be a mix of seafood jjamppong and tteokbokki. I bought it right away out of curiosity, so let’s take a look at what this menu item is like.

McDonald’s Double QPC BBQ Bacon Review [Korean Food]

March 21, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today’s new McDonald’s menu item is the Double Quarter Pounder Cheese BBQ Bacon. As the long name suggests, it is a hearty new Quarter Pounder with Cheese option. It is the double-patty version of the Quarter Pounder with Cheese BBQ Bacon, which first launched in January 2024. It is said to offer a richer beefy aroma and juicier bite. In particular, this is the first new Quarter Pounder with Cheese menu in a year since the Jalapeño Quarter Pounder with Cheese. So expectations are even higher. Now, let’s take a closer look at what it is.

[Korean Food] Matjeil Duck Bulgogi & King Dumpling Lunchbox, 7-Eleven

March 21, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today’s new Seven-Eleven lunchbox is the Matjeil Duck Bulgogi & King Dumplings Lunchbox. In December 2025, Seven-Eleven launched the “Matjeil” series with CJ as a promotion. Following the earlier Spam Arrabbiata, this time they introduced a more classic option. It pairs duck bulgogi with extra-large dumplings. Meanwhile, there have been almost no new convenience store lunchbox releases this December. Still, this one was quietly enjoyable with a solid flavor. So, let’s take a closer look at what’s inside.
