| - Island Style Restaurant #2 is located in the food court of the Greenland Supermarket and they hail from the original Island Style restaurant on West Sahara.
The Mom and I headed to Greenland for lunch and did a tour to check out each place to see what interested us. They shouted their wares and specials, hoping to hook us in. Island Style was our last stop, and for some reason, the Mom was more interested in what they had to offer.
She was eyeing the Bibimbap for $7.95, and I mentioned that the Husband likes that dish too, but with the stone pot version. We inquired and found out their Dolsat Bibimbap was $8.95. (She wasn't very familiar with the dish.) As I pondered what to get, an order of fried dumplings were placed in front of us for another customer. The Mom was immediately impressed by it and the smart guy at the counter pointed out that you get the dumplings for free if your order was $20 or more. Of course, that easily sold us and we added the Kalbi Plate ($12.95) to our lunch to get that order of dumplings!
We took a seat nearby and waited for our order. The order of 10 dumplings were ready first, and they do usually go for $5.95. It was piping hot and we loved the extra crispy texture. It was filled with pork and noodles. Two banchan were given to us as well - kim chee daikon and kim chee cabbage.
The Dolsot Bibimbap came with a side of soup, and it was definitely a generous portion. We ate as much as we could and packed the leftovers.
The Kalbi Plate came with mac salad and rice, and I enjoyed the tasty beef - lots of flavor indeed. We also had leftovers of this dish too.
The Husband ended up getting all the leftovers for lunch today and he was a bit skeptical about the bibimbap (sans the hot pot). However, upon arriving home this evening, he proclaimed that the bibimbap was very good and the kalbi tasted really good for leftovers.
Overall, sounds like everyone was happy with Island Style - and they make for good leftovers too!
