Location/Environment:
- Found this place through a buytopia deal..it's a little hidden on the east end..parking is available usually on the streets
- Interior is very hipster & trendy..using traditional Korean renovations and mixing with some modern themes
- Service is also nice though there was only one waitress during the time we were having dinner (~6:30pm)
Food:
- Note: most portions are a little small (hence tapas)..so order a few more dishes to fill yourself up
- Sweet Potato Poutine: taste pretty much like a regular poutine..but not a deep fried/greasy/oily french fries kind of style. You can really taste the thin slices of sweet potatoes and the little bits of bulgogi in it, which was really good
- Beef Tartare: if you like raw food, this is a must try. It's usually found in other Korean restaurants and it can't go wrong. The raw beef mixed with the egg goes well together.
- Kimchi Fried Rice: one of my favourites I ordered. It's not too spicy for non-Korean eaters to handle. The pot was hot enough to make some of the rice crispy if you prefer that. Everything was mixed well together and the kimchi were little bits again so it brings out the flavor.
KFC13: also one of my favourites. It's similar to what you get when you go to Korean Fried Chicken places. Juicy, sweet, boneless and full of meat. It also complimented well with the sweet pears.
Overall it was a very nice first experience - will probably come back again during the summer when it's warmer. I think it will be a lot more lively with nice music and maybe patios too.
