[Korean Food] Hearty Cheese Cream Pasta (CU)

January 22, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today’s new pasta item from CU convenience store is the Hearty Cheese Cream Pasta. It’s the first pasta release in CU’s Hearty series, the standard lunchbox lineup that began a refresh starting in Q4 2025. A generous amount of cheese is added to a rich, thick cream sauce for a dense and creamy flavor, and crushed red pepper brings a mild kick without being too overwhelming. It also offers pretty good value for the price. Now, let’s take a closer look at what it’s like.

January 21, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today I’m introducing a new 7-Eleven menu item: Spam Arrabbiata Pasta. As part of the Matjeil series, 7-Eleven collaborated with CJ to release several lunchbox items. Today, I’ll be reviewing one of them—the pasta option. It’s a lunchbox concept featuring pasta with a classic arrabbiata sauce, topped with Spam cut into cube-shaped pieces. Let’s take a closer look at what this menu is like.

[Korean Food] Overwhelming Mountain of Flame-Grilled Bulgogi CU

January 21, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today I’m introducing CU’s new lunchbox menu from the “Overwhelming” series: the CU Overwhelming Mountain of Char-Grilled Bulgogi Lunchbox. CU is already selling a great-value 3,900-won rice-bowl lunchbox, and they’ve been rolling out the Overwhelming series rice bowls pretty quickly too. They pack it with a generous amount of rice and toppings—almost like an extra-large portion—so it’s quite filling, and the items released so far have tasted pretty good, so I’m quietly looking forward to this one as well. Let’s take a look at what it’s like.

[Korean Food]Guam Cube Steak & Fried Rice (GS25)

January 20, 2026 by PAKOC

Hello. Today’s new lunchbox item from GS25 is the Guam Cube Steak & Fried Rice. Just from the name, it’s a lunchbox with a pretty unfamiliar concept. It’s a collaboration with the Guam Visitors Bureau and Naver Pay, and they say it recreates a local Guam menu. It’s not exactly a combination you’d typically associate with winter, so I got one out of curiosity. Let’s take a look at what it’s like.

This time, they’ve released a bento that lets you enjoy a hamburger steak and bulgogi together—an uncommon combination for 7-Eleven. Let’s take a look at what it’s like.
