| - This is the definition of "hole in the wall" ethnic cuisine. It is a most unassuming exterior in the middle of Arizona Avenue, surrounded by other small shops and restaurants. Mind the sign offering "more parking 'round back!" as the front has very limited space.
Walking in, we were greeted by a strong aroma of Korean food and the friendly buzz of several families enjoying their dinner. The menu had Korean and English translations; this was helpful since I've never had the pleasure of trying Korean food. Upon first glance, the meals looked pretty pricey but we soon found out that they are large portions. Our group of three split an entree of Bulgogi and an order of fried dumplings and had plenty of food. The entrees come with rice and side orders, which included Kimchee, sprouts, sliced apples, spicy potatoes, radishes and seaweed.
There were familiar flavors and new ones, and most of them were quite good. The Kimchee was a little spicy but I'm a wimp about it, I'm sure you'll be fine. The apples were probably my favorite part, with the Bulgogi (BBQ beef) coming in a close second.
I love the small, family style feeling of this place. Next time I'm ready to expand my palate I'll be back to try something new!
