| - Was curious of trying this place since the Food Network show "Restaurant Express"..
I just wasn't impressed.. Pricey... Friendly staff but a tad bit on the slow side.. Restaurant itself was a cool setup..
What we had :
Started off with
- Yuzu Rita! This was a delicious, salted-rim-and-all twist on margarita!
- Duck Sliders (roasted Peking duck, vegetables in a bao bun) ; quite tasty!
- Samgyeopsal Lettuce Wraps (pork belly, veggies, rice wrapped in lettuce, of course) ; mediocre.. nothing special about the pork belly and WHY THE RICE??
- Pan Fried Dumplings (aka potstickers) ; came out really cold, took a while to get our waitress attention to hopefully get a new one, when it was exchanged... it was ok, I've had better at Panda Express, lol.
Then...
- Chicken Fried Skewers ; the chicken was moist and the "almost" sweet and sour sauce that came with it was tasty.
- Should be called "Make It Yourself" Street Tacos - wasn't a fan of having to work for my food, but beef was good and tender.
- Rock Shrimp Tempura ; overbreaded, big pieces of shrimp, but was paired with a good sauce.
- Crab Salad ; although I did not have a taste of it, I guess the presentation was good
- Wonton Soup ; I've had better
Desserts ...
- Green Tea Creme Brulee ; presentation could be a lot better, the "green tea" was almost brown tea, nonetheless good and not too sweet.
- White Chocolate Strawberry Yuzu Mousse ; very pretty but taste was ok..
OVERALL, I'll pass.. Sorry Seonkyung..
