My boyfriend is obsessed with this place - and now I know why! This place just has some really tasty, no-nonsense Korean food. Of course we both ordered their signature soon tofu dish and a beef bulgogi to share. The soon tofu arrived boiling in a hot stone bowl and I cracked the raw egg into it (the egg was definitely one of my favourite parts). The broth is SO flavourful and pairs really well with the rice and sweet bulgogi.
I like spicy foods but I wouldn't say that I have an incredible heat tolerance so I opted for regular spicy. Honestly I think I could've gone extra spicy, it's not as bad as the bubbling red soup may indicate. The banchan was underwhelming, but the main dish definitely made up for it.
Buk Chang Dong was definitely one of the busiest places I saw in Korea town. The restaurant is on the smaller side and has a cozy mom-and-pop shop feel. Pro tip: avoid wearing white when consuming this meal - me and my lace dress had to learn this the hard way
