Hororok

Hororok is a small shop with 4 seats only, $17.90 burpple set includes 2 stews and 2 drinks (yuzu or barley).
Taste wise is quite average tasting,good amount of ingredients - satisfying on a rainy day

Saw that some reviews included ice cream but I think it’s no longer part of the burpple deal as at Sep 2023.
Saw that the ala carte price for the stews are $9.90(R) /$11.90 (L) so the deal is not exactly 1-for-1.

Would come back if I’m around the area looking for an affordable, quick fix Korean stew

Ok my photo doesn’t do this justice haha
If you’re looking for some decent Korean soup especially during rainy days, this is perfect. Not too expensive and with beyond even more worth it (I like that I get to finish the meal with a melona ice cream)

The army stew was rather thin and light tasting, similar to the type of soup you’d get in instant noodles. I was expecting a heavier, stronger tasting one. It’s still overall an okay tasting soup though, if you think of it just as a fancy instant noodle soup of some sort. Could do with more of them thicker chunkier spam instead of thinly sliced ham too. The stews comes with a small bowl of rice as well by default but feel free to pay more for additional noodles.

As part of the Burpple deal, you get a drink (choice between canned coke or canned ice lemon tea) and an ice cream (melona, supposedly).
But the owner didn’t tell us when we were ordering that there was no more ice cream, so only after we’ve paid and finished our meal that he told us there was no ice cream left and offered to give us a can drink in replacement. Which was SO not worth it btw, but honestly what can we say!? We’ve already paid - my opinion is that he should’ve checked and made sure we were okay with the replacement before he took our payment. Otherwise, the staff was actually quite nice.

We visited on a Thursday evening and there were not many patrons. It was easy enough to get a seat although the shop is small with limited capacity - a table for 4 and a counter-facing table for 2-3. Wouldn’t be suitable for big groups.
In conclusion an alright choice for the price and location only after the Burpple deal. Would only get it if I happen to be around the area and am craving for some Korean stew but don’t want to pay too much for restaurant prices.

had yas army stew & soft tofu stew, 2 melonas & 2 ayatakas for $17.40! the army stew was a little bit of a letdown as the meats inside were kind of artificial & the "spam" was just thinly sliced, tasteless ham. still, the soup was warm & hearty, and pretty decently flavourful despite its ingredients. however, i would have thought it would come with cheese as it's army stew but it didn't. the soft tofu stew was good & quite tasteful. they ran out of drink options so we only had ayataka. loved the service though!

Bean paste was quite strong tasting, although the stew was more towards a thinner consistency. There was a fair amount of ingredients in the stew, and we added some tofu noodles as well at an additional charge. The tofu noodles were actually just long strips of tofu skin, which was an interesting idea but I personally felt it didn’t feel like noodles at all.

‘Tofu Noodle will be nicer if it is soft 🤔 but glass noodles was a combination with the tofu & service was great’
