| - There are probably countless other delicious and possibly better Korean restaurants in the neighbourhood, but it's still taking me forever to try them all because we keep going back to Tofu Village.
We (party of 2) always order the dolsot bibimbap with "vegetables & vegetables" ($10) and a seafood soon tofu ($8) to share, though when we went the other day it was way too humid for hot soup. You know what they say: when life gives you lemons, make NAENGMYEON. Our introduction to Korean cold noodle soup, it was super tasty and refreshing. The veggie bibimbap (sprouts, carrot, mushroom, egg, life-changing crispy rice) is always great but priced the same as the meat entrees, as is the unfortunate norm.
I love all the side dishes, particularly the tofu with broccoli and the syrupy-sweet potatoes, which don't always make an appearance.
We got a combo once not realizing that it wouldn't come with rice, so now we just order everything separately. I enjoy the big rice bowl that accompanies the soon tofu because it makes the meal just filling enough. Especially if you're with a hungry date. You know what they say: it takes a (Tofu) village to feed a dude.
