Anju is a general term for a Korean side dish consumed with alcohol (often with Korean soju). Some of these side dishes can also be ordered as an appetizer or a main dish. These side dishes are different from the banchan side dishes served with a regular Korean meal. Some examples of anju are: dried squid with gochujang, assorted fruits, dubu kimchi (tofu with kimchi), or peanuts.
Anju is usually served at bars, restaurants, and karaoke establishments which serve alcohol. In many drinking establishments throughout Korea, the purchase of accompanying anju is required if ordering alcoholic drinks.
