For those craving bold and comforting flavors, the dinner selections stand out, especially the iconic Bibimbap. The Classic Bibimbap layers sizzling ground beef, an artfully fried egg, and an assortment of crisp, fresh vegetables, all brought together by the fiery, sweet-spicy kick of Korean gochujang sauce. Equally delicious is the Bulgogi & Glass Noodle, featuring thinly sliced grilled beef with tender glass noodles and fresh scallions, creating a perfect harmony of textures and smoky sweetness. Another highlight is the Spicy Pork & Chive, boasting tender pork slices glazed with a special sweet and spicy sauce and topped with crunchy sprouts and chives—each bite is a perfect balance of heat and savor.

Zannchi doesn’t stop at savory; their dessert menu is a delightful finale to any meal. Don’t miss their Homemade Basque Cheesecake available in luscious flavors like vanilla, strawberry, passion fruit, and seasonal varieties — each slice creamy and decadently smooth with a beautifully caramelized crust. For a sweet brunch treat, the creative options like BanaTella (banana and Nutella), Verry Berry, and Oreo & Chocolate bring playful twists to the table. The Injeolmi, combining red bean, rice cake, and soy powder, offers a traditionally inspired, satisfyingly chewy bite that lingers pleasantly on the palate.
