East Meets West for The Square Club’s Korean BBQ
It’s BBQ Season!
Sweet, sticky, spicy: from street food stalls to fine dining restaurants, fast food specials to supper club menus, eastern flavours are dominating Bristol’s food scene. This summer, The Square Club is not only keeping up with the trend but is setting the pace with their sizzling new Korean Barbecue Menu, designed for parties and events by award-winning Head Chef, Aidan Fisher. The menu is a bold celebration of Korea’s most iconic flavours, given a playful and party-ready twist that’s perfect for grazing al fresco. Regardless of what the British weather has in store for us this season, this menu is sure to bring the heat.
At the heart of the menu are fire-grilled teriyaki chicken skewers, sticky honey-glazed pork belly, addictive katsu cod bites and Korean-fried mushrooms. These headline dishes are complemented by a line-up of zesty, vibrant sides, including kimchi cabbage, crunchy cucumber with spring onion, and vegetable and seaweed fried rice, all rich in umami and smoky spice. Fisher designed the menu with grazing, sharing, and nibbling in mind — and to add a little spice to your soirée, of course!
Inspired by the vibrant flavours of the Korean BBQ menu, the talented team of mixologists behind the Lower Deck Cocktail Bar have developed the Square Subak Hwachae; the perfect party punch. This sweet and creamy cocktail is inspired by traditional Korean fruit punch. Unsure where you’ve heard of Hwachae from? You may recognise the punch from its brief viral stint across video platforms last year. Users would film themselves waking up at three in the morning, claiming to be severely dehydrated and craving the concoction — and for good reason. The unusual combination of sparkling, sweet and creamy flavours makes it uniquely hydrating and refreshing. The light-hearted trend spread like wildfire, turning the cocktail into a household name across the globe. The Square Club’s version is a love letter to the viral sensation: think juicy watermelon, Kwai Fae Lychee Liqueur, soda, and a rich swirl of sweetened condensed milk. It’s sunshine in a glass — and yes, vegan and non-alcoholic versions are available, so everyone can get involved.
Best enjoyed underneath the idyllic canopy of The Square Club’s hidden terrace, the Korean BBQ Party Menu is available now for private bookings and events at The Square Club. Bold, bright, and bursting with flavour, the menu is guaranteed to make your summer celebrations truly unforgettable.
