I was so happy to get to go visit Jumak. I'd been curious about the reviews I'd seen coming in on Yelp and waiting for an opportunity. I have a bestie who lived in Korea for a couple years and I owed her a favour so I took her out for a dinner date on Queen Mary. When we got there we made friends with Jo who is co-owner and runs front of house. She was excited and proud of the food and rattled off her favourite suggestions and my friend's eyes lit up. We ordered a vegetarian pajeon, eggplant dumplings, a spicy noodle soup and the pork rice cup. Everything was honestly exceptional.
The eggplant dumplings were a delicate surprise- they were thin pieces of eggplant rolled around creamy crab meat and fried - lovely. The pajeon was surprisingly light and not greasy and I could have eaten that spicy noodle soup forever.
This is a Mom and Pop shop run by a young cool couple who are working their butts off to provide really high quality Korean food, exceptional warm kind service, at fair prices. They are doing a great job, go give them some love!!
