Tender slow-braised beef short ribs with ginger and soy glaze, served over a bed of perfectly steamed rice. Bold Korean-inspired flavours in every bite.
The Korean Short Rib Bowl at 5 O Clock Cafe And Lounge is a standout item in our globally inspired bowls menu. Slow-braised beef short ribs are simmered in a rich blend of ginger and soy until fall-apart tender, then served over a bed of perfectly steamed rice. The result is a bowl that is deeply savoury, subtly sweet, and incredibly satisfying.
This bowl reflects 5 O Clock Cafe's commitment to international flavours brought together in one diverse menu. It is a popular choice for guests looking for something beyond the ordinary — available for dine-in, takeout, and delivery at 123 Freeport Blvd NE, Calgary NE.
The short ribs are slow-braised until the meat becomes effortlessly tender — the kind of texture you only get from proper low-and-slow cooking with quality beef.
The signature ginger and soy glaze adds a savoury-sweet depth that coats every bite of beef and rice with bold Korean-inspired flavour.
