| - Real Korean food in the NW! I've always wanted to try this restaurant and finally had a chance this evening. Restaurant is actually a little tough to find, opposite Winston Churchill High School on 52 Ave NW, behind Yamato Japanese Restaurant.
The dishes we ordered were:
- Appetizer: Seafood pancake - Delicious fluffy & spongy omelette with fresh seafood like squid and shrimp, green onions and comes with a vinegar dipping sauce. The "spongy" part is like a tapioca-flour mixed with the egg.
- Note - all entrees come with side dishes - KimChee, Garlic Potatoes, Zucchini, Bean Sprouts and Tofu. If you ask for more, it will cost you $2 each. Also, a bowl of miso soup was served to each person.
- 2 orders of Bulgogi - Marinated beef in a sweet sauce, with some onion on a hot plate - comes with a bowl of rice
- Wanted to order the OxTail Soup but it was not available - opted for Bulgogi instead.
- 2 orders of Hot Stone Rice or the proper name is Dolsot Bibimbap - Hot Stone Bowl with rice, vegetables, black fungus, seaweed and a dousing of hot bean paste. Mix it all up with your silver spoon.
- Dessert - little pineapple-stuffed rambutans (like lychees); eat with toothpicks provided.
Ambience of the restaurant: Small family-style restaurant. Furniture possibly needs an update. Needs more ventilation 'cos there's Korean BBQ and Hot Pot.
Price: about $15/person for dinner
There is also lunch specials at this restaurant for $9.53 - beef or chicken, steamed rice, 2 spring rolls & soup. Will try this out next time.
