I just had dinner there yesterday and I am still talking abt this restaurant with my friends For the food, it is one of the best Korean restaurant I have tried in HK. For most of the food, they reminded me the taste of Korea! First, let's talk about the complimentary side dishes/ appetiser. The Baechu Kimchi is very Korean to me, unlike most of the under-fermented kimchi served in usual Korean chainstores, this kimchi tasted much stronger and the scent was finer.Maincourse: Spicy fried rice cake
For the food, it is one of the best Korean restaurant I have tried in HK. For most of the food, they reminded me the taste of Korea!
First, let's talk about the complimentary side dishes/ appetiser. The Baechu Kimchi is very Korean to me, unlike most of the under-fermented kimchi served in usual Korean chainstores, this kimchi tasted much stronger and the scent was finer.
Maincourse: Spicy fried rice cake(Tteokvokki) , seafood pancake(Jeon), sauce noodle (jajangmyeon).
I would give 5star for the rice cake , remember to add cheese. It was not super spicy so I guess HK people would find no problems eating it .
I ordered Seafood pancake bcuz Korean tends to eat Jeon during rainy days and it was raining yestersay. The Jeon had a lot of green onion which is not commonly found in HK chain restaurants The waiter was very attentive to ask if we wanted it to be softer or crispier. The sauce reminded me of Korea again :
For jajangmyeon, it was normal comparing to the above two dishes. one thing I liked about it was it had a lot of potatoes inside.
In general I would say this shop was the most Korean-tasting restaurant in HK, and of coz I will have more Korean restaurants to try out in HK. Also , if you have some certain Korean food you wanna have but not listed on the menu, you can call them to make reservation so the Korens chef will try his best to tailor make it just for you !! I will try to revisit this store next time and I will ask them to prepare 찜닭 (jjamdak) which is my favourite Korean food
For the service, I would give another 5star for the waiter as he was very attentive and he tried to communicate with the chef to make sure we got what we wanted
The shop is a bit small with only 10seata but I saw a lot of people having takeaway so you could tell how popular this small unknown store is to peopel in Whompoa
Looking forward to my next visit to this store!
