KINI

KINI is a Korean takeout shop in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, near the Élysée Palace, serving rice bowls with jeyuk, dakgalbi, or bulgogi and vegetarian options. The bowls hold more meat than rice and come with house-made kimchi and spicy cucumber salad, seasoned with gochujang. It opens only for weekday lunch, starting at noon, and food comes out quickly even when orders pile up into a line. The seating inside fits two to four people, so takeout is more convenient.
