| - 6am is not a fun time to wake up to work out, but if there is a possibility to get Korean food for breakfast, I am more than happy to wake up. E-Jo is mainly a soup destination. A majority of their offerings are broth based and that is fine by me. Winter means sweaters, boots, and a fiery bowl of Korean love. Even if Vegas winter is a nice 65 degrees.
This time around, I had ordered the Haejangguk (Hangover Soup $8.95). The broth is piping hot and rich. The cabbage, leeks, and bean sprouts are plentiful. The beef was on the dry side. I wished they put the clotted blood cakes into the dish, but I am guessing that is what they blacked out on the menu and board. The soup was good enough to get three stars from me, but it was the kimchi that has me at a four. The pot of cabbage kimchi is the best I have had in Vegas. Other places skimp on the red pepper mixture leaving theirs bland, sometimes sweet, and lacking of flavor. Not at E-Jo. They do it right by opening each leaf and spreading in this magical combination. It is a tedious process, but that's how good kimchi is made. By clean up time, I had ate the whole pot with the exception of two leaves. The radish kimchi was not my favorite. The taste did not compare to the other, but it is not inedible by any means.
