Dosirak Malmö

Korean lunchbox, made with love

"Dosirak in Malmo serves authentic Korean lunchbox meals. Run by Seungwee, it offers Bibimbap, Japchae, and homemade Kimchi. Limited seating, book early."

Dosirak, Korean for Lunchbox, serves what the name suggests—a simple Korean lunch. But don’t be fooled by this small, hole-in-the-wall restaurant.

You walk into a humble restaurant and are greeted by the owner, Seungwee, a vibrant Korean mother who exudes passion and love.

Jars of Kimchi and Gochugaru adorn the see-through preparation counter, where Seungwee and her staff churn out delicious bowl-style dishes for her loyal customers and plenty of home delivery services. The restaurant seats around ten people during lunch, so if you want a spot to dine in, be sure to get there early.

Her passion for bringing Korean culture to Malmo is evidenced by the classic Korean dishes like Bibimbap - a satisfying mix of rice, vegetables, meat/tofu and sweet and spicy gochujang. For something a little festive, the Japchae - a medley of vegetables, meat and sweet potato noodles - is absolutely stunning. Her Kimchi is absolutely delicious, and she offers a scheme where you can bring in your glass jar and get it filled with Kimchi for 15 SEK off.

Besides her lovingly made food, the entrepreneurial Korean mother has written a book about Sweden in an attempt to inspire Koreans to travel to, study, work, and live in Sweden. Next time you’re there, strike up a conversation with the nice lady behind the counter, and you’ll be welcomed with open arms and delicious flavours.
