| - My family and I were craving Korean food and this was one of the few places that was opened on Easter Sunday. The place is a good size for a family-run restaurant. The decoration was okay, modern and clean. We were seated immediately when we got there.
We ordered a bunch of stuff to share amongst the 4 of us: Chaban Dolsot Bibimbap ($11.99), Seafood pancake ($14.99), Pork Bone Soup ($8.99), Bean Curd Dreg Stew ($10.99), LA Kalbi ($18.99).
The chaban Dolsot bibimbap was highly recommended by yelpers and it sure was the best dish of the night! There was quite alot of "filling" or meats/veggies and an egg in the dish. The rice at the bottom was crispy, which is my favourite part of the dish.
The Pork Bone Soup was very disappointing. This is my dad's favourite dish and he was quite excited to eat it when it was served to him boiling. However, as he took a few bites, he complained that it was COLD on the INSIDE. We all took a few bites and we thought the same. The soup might look boiling on the outside, but it is obvious they just reheated the meat and didn't boil it long enough. We called one of the waiters over and told him our concern, but he didn't really know how to deal with it. In fact, he looked scared that he might need to give this dish for us for free. He just stood there for a few seconds didn't know what to do or say (no, there wasn't a language barrier as he could speak English very fluently). So we suggested that he reboils the PBS. He gladly agreed to do so.
The seafood pancake was also very good! It was eggy and fluffy, just the way my family likes it. There was a good amount of seafood in it. I liked how it wasn't oily at all.
This restaurant was one of the few restaurants that served my favourite Bean Curd Dreg Stew. It is basically grounded up tofu stew with meat and kimchi. As expected, it came boiling (literally bubbling everywhere). I've had this stew many times in Korea, but this one tasted very weird to me. I am not sure what it was, perhaps the tofu? The taste was off.
My mom ordered the LA kalbi because she saw another table order it and it looked delicious. It wasn't anything special; it was pricey and it was quite salty to me.
THE PROBLEM:
Several hours after the meal, my dad started having abdominal pain, diarrhea, and all sorts of food poisoning symptoms. Then, a little while later, both my mom and brother experienced the same thing as well. We were trying to figure out which dish had the problem and we concluded that the PBS might be problem because they all had the most and I only had a spoonful. Not sure if it was because they didn't boil it enough in the first run or it was just NOT MADE FROM SCRATCH and JUST REHEATED IT, but it scared us a lot.
Because of our food poisoning experience, we will definitely NOT return. Also, Overall, everything here was $1-2 more than other Korean restaurants and other places had better quality of food and service.
