Dal.Komm Coffee has opened a new concept at Guoco Midtown called Dal.Komm Playground offers an expanded range of Korean-inspired dishes alongside a variety of Korean alcoholic beverages, complementing their original cafe offerings.
Pan-fried Sotteok 4/5
From the Small Bites menu, we sampled the Pan-fried Sotteok ($16.90). This dish was a delight, featuring mouthwatering cheese sausages and chewy rice cake. The tomatoey sauce had a hint of spiciness, and the caramelized onions added a delectable sweetness that helped mellow the cheese sausage’s saltiness.
Seafood Pancake 4.5/5
Next, from the Sharing Plates, we enjoyed a delicious Seafood Pancake ($23.90). Packed with shrimp and squid, the pancake boasted a juicy and chewy interior contrasted with a crisp exterior. The accompanying vinegary dipping sauce enhanced each bite, making the dish even more irresistible.
Galbi-Jjim with Mashed Potato 4.8/5
The Galbi-Jjim with Mashed Potato ($28.90) was exceptional for mains. The slab of braised beef was incredibly fork-tender and flavourful, and the accompanying carrots, radish, and mushrooms added a comforting taste. The buttery mashed potato further elevated the marbled meat’s overall texture and indulgence.
Spicy Ssamjang Prawn Noodles 3.8/5
The Spicy Ssamjang Prawn Noodles ($20.90) was a crowd-pleasing fusion pasta dish. The prawns had a satisfying crunch, and the slightly spicy sauce coated the pasta just right. Bursts of sweetness from the blistered cherry tomatoes added a pleasant contrast.
Cruffin French Toast 3/5
For dessert, we had the Cruffin French Toast ($18.90), topped with cream, vanilla ice cream, and a sprinkle of granola. While enjoyable, the experience could have been improved by substituting the granola with salted nut clusters or a similar option for added texture and taste.
Dal.Komm Playground also offers a selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The Coffee Cube ($8.90) is one of their signature drinks, and their interesting selection of flavoured Makgeolli is also worth trying.
