Houston | Dubu Dubu Korean Kitchen | Tofu Soup & More! 🇰🇷

Just discovered this adorably named Korean tofu spot after my Costco run—Dubu Dubu (which literally means "tofu" in Korean and sounds like bubbling water! 🫧). The place used to be Mama's Kitchen, so it's like a sweet blast from the past with a delicious new twist! ✨ 🍽️ Food Review 🌶️ Beef & Seafood Soft Tofu Soup (Very Hot) Spicy alert! This hits like Shin Ramyun-level heat 🥵. The beef is perfectly marbled (so flavorful!), and the dried shiitake mushrooms add umami depth. The silky tofu + egg combo is divine—it practically melts in your mouth! 🥚💕 Only downside: The shrimp and clams were frozen, so texture was meh. 😫 💡 Pro tip: After finishing the rice, ask for barley tea to make Korean-style nurungji (scorched-rice tea soup)! It’s the ultimate spicy-soother and comfort food. �🍵 🥓 Kimchi Stir-Fried Pork Belly Kimchi + pork belly = match made in heaven! The kimchi has the perfect tangy-spicy kick, and the pork is juicy with a hint of fermented bean paste. Rice thief alert! 🍚🔥 The side miso soup helps balance the richness. 🐟 Grilled Mackerel Crispy skin with a slightly sweet glaze, tender flesh inside—no dipping sauce needed! Simple but so satisfying. 🎣👌 🥗 Banchan (Side Dishes) The kimchi and cucumber are mild and fresh, fish cake is chewy, and the pepper-seasoned bean sprouts are light and crunchy. A solid lineup! 🥢 🏡 Vibe & Service The owners are super sweet Korean couple, and the food has that authentic homestyle touch. Cozy, no-frills spot—great for a quick, comforting meal! If you're nearby, definitely drop in~~ 💖 📍 Address: 3815 Richmond Ave. Suite B, Houston, TX 77027 ✨ Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ✭ (4.25/5) #HoustonEats #HoustonFoodie #KoreanFood #TofuSoup #HoustonDateSpot #ComfortFood #HoustonRestaurants #SpicyFoodLover #KoreanComfortFood #HiddenGems
