Great service! I can't tell whether this place is truly "authentic" or not, but it has great food and a great atmosphere! (Other than the part where they had the baseball game going on a flat screen in the 'traditional' seating area haha!)
My friends ordered the spicy seafood champong and the chicken champong, and I ordered the yukgaejang. I tried their soups both and loved the rich broth, and was somewhat disappointed by mine, which had a slight onion taste and some shredded beef with lots of vegetables and egg. They also had insanely huge portions (and the price difference between my stew and the champong was only about $3 or $4).
Neither of my friends could finish their champong, so I would suggest splitting one between two people if you and a friend have smaller appetites. The chicken champong would have been really good had my friend not requested it to be extra spicy, but even with all the extra peppers floating about, the broth was so good with plain rice.
This place was pretty far from me, but it had been recommended to me before by a good friend and I'm so glad I finally had the chance to go! I loved sitting in the traditional seating area and loved seeing the chefs work behind the bar. Its a nice place to take a date or somewhere that's just a teensy bit more fancy than a place like Owl of Minerva.
