After work today, 12 of us decided to go for Korean Fried Chicken, but seeing the crazy long line ups at some other chicken places nearby, we came here since there was no waiting involved. Environment & Hygiene:This place was hard to notice as it is hidden by the construction that is going on around that building. Luckily, my smart colleagues found it. It had simple decor with very bright lighting; there were still about 6 smaller tables, but us 12 took up half of the restaurant! Hygiene
Environment & Hygiene:
This place was hard to notice as it is hidden by the construction that is going on around that building. Luckily, my smart colleagues found it. It had simple decor with very bright lighting; there were still about 6 smaller tables, but us 12 took up half of the restaurant! Hygiene was okay. Service:
Since 3 of my colleagues were late, it was very nice of the staff to still offer us a table because most places were require the whole party to be present before letting us in, so thank you. However, there was some pressure for us to leave asap as they kept looking and asking.
Taste & Value:
We basically tried almost every signature Korean dish. After ordering, 2 plates of 3 sides was brought to us. All was good, but our favourite was the sweetened potatoes. Below is what we got:
1. Instant Noodles with Cheese
I'm not one that would order instant noodles at a restaurant, but my colleagues were very interested in this dish, so we got it. It wasn't bad. I liked that the noodles didn't get soft and mushy even though they were sitting in the pan. Also, the cheese complimented the noodles quite well after it melted. The broth was okay and not too spicy. There was also an egg inside. My colleagues liked it a lot and we ended up getting 1 more when the 3 late comers arrived. 2. Seafood Pancake
This is a must order at a Korean restaurant I think. This was quite small, but it was also half the price of what most resturants sell it for. It didn't quite look like a usual pancake as you can see the egg is quite visible. The amount of seafood was decent, and although I thought that it would taste like an omlette, it had the regular pancake taste so I was glad. Also, the sauce was very nice too! It was the way I liked it! 3. Rice Cake
This was quite plain. The sauce was a little too watery for my taste. Nothing too special. 4. Jajangmyun
I've had really good ones in Canada, so I was a bit disappointed in the taste of these. Not that they weren't good, but they could have been better. The sauce was a bit too heavy on the blackbean paste and the flavour was not balanced somehow. However, the texture of the noodles were nice and chewy. 5. Fried Chicken (Original, Sweet & Spicy and Green Onions)
My mouth dropped when I saw how small the pieces were. I was not expecting chicken wings and tiny drumsticks for $200. The ones who had the chicken with green onions really liked the sauce. As for me, I had the Sweet and Spicy piece. The sweetness balanced out the spiciness, and we all thought that the sauce was very tasty. The chicken was tender and juicy. Although the pieces were small, they did have some meat to them, which made it a little bit better. On the side, there was a strawberry salad, which was not bad. Also, there were a few deep-fried rice cakes on the side, which were a tasty and creative idea I think. 6. Sweet & Spicy Chicken
After them 3 arrived, we ordered an extra order of Sweet and Spicy chicken. 7. Japchae
The noodles were kinda all stucked together. However, they had amazing flavours and we had to order another dish afterwards. 8. Cold Noodles
This was my first time eating this kind of cold noodles. The sauce was a bit sour; making these noodles very refreshing to eat. I liked them. 9. Beef Bulgogi
This was okay. It was lacking that grill/flame taste to it, but the seasoning and flavours were good, and the beef wasn't tough. 10. Beef Short Rib
This was hands down the best dish of the night!~! The staff cut the meat off the bones for us when it was served. It wasn't really cutting, as the meat actually just came right off. You can't go wrong with beef, radish and carrots together! This dish reminded me of how my mom used to cook ox tails! The beef was so so so tender. Man, was it ever good! I would say this dish is a must get! Final Verdict:
Everything was decent.
