| - Being a fan of the Bop, I was delighted to hear this place opened.
I frequent the places on Koreatown and this posh neighborhood could sure use a place like this among all the upscale, mediocre bakeries.
Unfortunately, I was expecting Seoul and getting Pyonyang
The place doesn't bring Koreatown to Eglington - no, no, no.
The other way round. It Foresthills this traditional, inexpensive dish.
Not on the price, but on everything else.
We shared several dishes. All and all the bop was OK, nothing special.
It's the little things - for example, why so skimchy ?
In that orange place on Bloor / Clinton you get 5 yes count em 5 starters, including 2 kinds of great and hot kimchy.
Here we got one small dish (for 3 people !) and it was more pickled cabbage than kimchy.
The BBQ Bibimbap dish didn't have a lot of meat. The mushroom kind was pretty good.
But all the dishes feel too small. And you don't get to fish rice out the water ! Hopefully things will improve there. Until then, Bi Bim Bye !
