| - -Torta Coreana $10: the sandwiches were huge and it will definitely filled you up! They were a bit messy to eat with the meat juices dripping. Although the braised beef was tender and melted in your mouth, I found it to be lacking in salt and it was very rich due to the avocado. Since I couldn't find any pickled pear, I wish there was more kimchi to cut down the heaviness of the sandwiches.
-Braised Short-rib $5: the braised meat was flavorful and juicy, topped with fresh onions and cabbage. The marinate was sweet and there was a subtle hint of spiciness. To be honest I think there was too much cabbage, and is it just me or I think adding fresh cabbage as topping to any dish is unnecessary? Sure, it provide some crunchy texture, but it add nothing to the dish in terms of flavor, unless you cook it down or toss it in some sauce.
-Bulgogi Shrimp El Diablo $8: My favorite, albeit it is pricier compared to other taco dishes on the menu, but it was worth it. The taco shell was a bit oily and messy to eat, but the shrimp was amazing!! Cooked perfectly, mixed in this an amazing red sesame spicy sauce and I believe there was some guacamole!
-Chicken Kampungki $5: The crispy chicken pieces were not as spicy as I expected, and while the aoili added a lovely creamy texture, it didn't have that "spicy" wasabi taste to it. Overall, I didn't think there was anything special with this dish, it was just like any regular chicken kampungki for me.
-Churros Poutine $9: The churros were "fries", the melted marshmallow resembled cheese curds and the caramel sauce was "gravy"! I can definitely tell the churros were made fresh as these came out piping hot, however I was disappointed as these churros were a bit hard. Anyhow, while the poutine concept was fun and quirky, this dessert was expensive and it didn't worth the $9 price tag for me.
-Grilled Kalbi Beef Ribs $14: Ok $14 was a bit expensive when you can just go down the street for a cheaper and bigger portion of Kalbi ribs. The ribs were cooked through with the marinade caramelized, deliciously tender and had that traditional Kalbi marinade - sweet and salty. Surprisingly the kimchi wasn't spicy, and it added a fresh and cool touch that helped ease the heat from the salsa for every bite.
-Pulpo Al Carbon $6: Who doesn't love octopus and chipotle!? This was another favorite dish of mine and I was surprised to see a huge piece of octopus, so for $6 it was worth it! The octopus was grilled lightly, not rubbery nor tough, instead it was tender and citrusy. The chipotle added creaminess and worked perfectly with the octopus, just pure deliciousness.
The service was friendly and attentive, and most of the tacos were really good with a few favourites. If you want to avoid the crowd and noises, I advise you to visit the restaurant during lunch as the restaurant is usually packed at night.
