01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
One of Kankichi’s highlights is its seafood kimchi chiritori hot pot, which diners can order at their preferred spice level. Some diners describe a flavour that starts with a touch of sweetness before building in heat. Udon makes a satisfying way to finish the meal. The menu also lists kimchi hot pots with pork, chicken or seafood, with vegetables, tteokbokki, tofu and other options to add to the pot.
While the hot pot is cooking, one diner recommends pairing changja with draft beer. Changja is listed at ¥440; vegetable and potato Korean pancakes are ¥650 each, and tteokbokki is ¥560. There is also grilled meat for those who want something beyond hot pot; one diner added skirt steak to their usual chiritori hot pot.
For a leisurely hot-pot meal, it may be worth ordering a drink or small dish first while you wait for the pot to cook. Kankichi is described as a dinner-focused restaurant suited to groups, with dine-in and table service available.
