| - Oh Sura... A Carnivore's Playground! As a Catholic who gave up meat for Lent- dinner at Sura was a delicious way to celebrate its conclusion.
It is buffet style where you grab your own meats, then grill it to your preference at your own table. If you don't know what you like- you can grab a slice of every meat to sample, then pile your plate with your faves.
And there is a protein for everyone: chicken, beef, pork, shrimp, squid, marinated or non marinated. My personal faves were the squid, beef tongue, bulgogi, and galbi. Yum, yum, yum.
Even the banchan is buffet style and there is quite a selection. From pickled cucumbers, pickled watermelon, bean sprouts, chapchae, and my favorite- spicy kimchi. The jigae of the day (spicy beef and vegetable soup) was fabulous. There was even sushi, fish, and tempura. And it is quite toddler friendly too- fried rice, fresh fruits, and jello for dessert.
The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. My glass of iced barley tea was never empty. And I asked if they had the thin sliced radish wraps, and she brought me some from the back and told me that if there is something I don't see on the buffet- to just ask.
I will definitely be back! But, ladies- leave your designer purses at home- unless your nose wants to be reminded of this delicious meal for days to come.
