SOTBOX is a new kimbap kiosk by Sotpot at Suntec City
Many know of Tanjong Pagar as Singapore’s go-to spot for Korean food. But Suntec City begs to differ with all the cool openings in the past year: Paik’s Noodle with its famous jjajangmyeon, Bakery 1946 with its viral fruit-shaped buns and more. Adding to this growing list is SOTBOX, a new kimbap kiosk helmed by the same team behind Sotpot restaurant.
Let’s start with their regular kimbap. We first tried the Classy Classic ($8.90), featuring five must-haves: egg, ham, pickled radish, carrots, and cucumber. You get a row of 10 pieces in a takeaway box, which makes for a great hassle-free lunch for those on the go.Â
For something more flavourful, we recommend getting the Tuna Mayo Harmony ($11.90) or Beef Bulgogi Burst ($10.90) instead.
They also have a kkoma kimbap range, which is essentially a mini kimbap that can be eaten in just a few bites. This is a lesser-seen option in Singapore, so we were particularly excited to try the Ham & Cheese Dancing Duo ($2) and Choongmu Kimbap ($11.90).
The former gets you two small rolls packed with ham, cheese, carrot, and cucumber, while the latter gives you eight mini rows of plain kimbap served with some sweet-spicy squid radish kimchi on the side.Â
Worry not if you’re not big on spices as the kimchi is a lot sweeter than spicy.
If you’re not a fan of kimchi but still want some extra flavours, get a side of their sauces that come in four variations: K-Mustard Signature ($1), Sesame Soy Sauce ($1), Cream Mayo Sauce ($1), and Honey Mustard Sauce ($1).
If you thought these paper cups were meant for coffee or tea, you’d be surprised to find Beef Gomtang ($2.90) or Pork Gomtang ($2.40) in them. You get 240ml of your choice of soup that pairs perfectly with any kimbap.
While you’re there, make sure to try their yubu range, which offers a variety of fried tofu skin stuffed with rice and different toppings. Out of the four available during our visit, we tried the Pork Bulgogi ($2.50).Â
A word of caution for those who can’t tolerate spice—this bulgogi flavour has red chilli bits and packs quite a punch.
To temper the spice, get a box of their Fried Eomuk ($2.90). These are essentially fried fish cakes that make for a crispy, tasty snack!Â
For easy access, SOTBOX is located in the basement of Suntec City Tower 3. Business just commenced, so do extend some patience if you face any teething issues.
