Owner/Chef,
I hope you read this. You use too much MSG in your food. Too. Damn. Much.
If my body feels like it's completely shutting down after I ate a bowl of your jjajangmyeon, it's easy to know what's the culprit. It all started when my coworker and I lamented there aren't too many good black bean noodle places in Las Vegas. He mentioned several of his friends tried Tae Heung Gak and so we decided to try it for lunch. We ordered the jjambbong, jjajangmyeon and tangsuyook.
The service was excellent. Once our food arrived we digged in and loved it. I was even close to saying the jjajangmyeon is better than the one at Baeklian which is currently my fav jjajangmyeon place. We began driving back to the office.
While on the drive back, that's when we both felt it...holy shizz..The impeding MSG drowsy doom from hell. Except this time it was one of the strongest ones I've felt in my life, hands down. It's like the biggest coffee crash ever and as if I just got done writing a 20 page paper on -insert boring ass topic here-. The drive alone was tough but once we got back to the office, we had to sit in on the most mundane office meeting regarding project management + version control (fun stuff right?) for over two hours. Two hours! In the darkest meeting room in the building to boot. I think I honestly snored a few times during the meeting. If my boss wasn't in the room I probably would've just lied down and taken a nap on the floor right then and there.
Not only did the drowsy MSG spell completely engulf my physical body, I was parched out of my life. I never had MSG make me so damn thirsty like I was that day. If I didn't have access to water I may have needed an IV to resurrect myself.
I'm throwing alot of hyperboles but my point is I seriously will never return unless they change their MSG usage. I'm willing to try the place one more time because during the time of eating, it was pretty damn good. But if I have a negative experience again, I'm definitely dropping down to one star. My first ever one star at that.
