🇧🇷 Eel Rice hidden in Korean Street-II Mi Jeong

🌟 The Eel Rice That’ll Ruin You for Others Shockingly Generous Portion: A mountain of grilled eel blankets steaming rice—no skimping here. 🐟 The eel is fatty, tender, and glazed in a sticky-sweet sauce that clings to every flake. For R$200, it’s easily enough for two (or one very hungry soul). Perfectly Balanced Sweetness (with a catch): The glaze is caramelized to sticky perfection, but warned—after half the bowl, sweetness can feel cloying. 🍯 Wrap eel in lettuce leaves with rice to cut through richness (pro move: add a dab of ssamjang sauce). Free Seaweed Soup Side: Light, briny soup that cleanses the palate—drink it between bites to reset your taste buds. 🥣 Genius pairing, not an afterthought. 📝 The Sashimi Bibimbap: Fresh but Fades Fast High-Quality Fish, Low-Key Flavor: Tuna, yellowtail, and salmon are melt-in-your-mouth fresh. 🐠 But the bowl relies on soy sauce and sesame oil for flavor—too mild for bold palates. Add extra chili flakes if you like heat. Texture Play Missing: Lacks the crispy rice bottom that makes bibimbap iconic. 🍚 Eel’s caramelized edges win the texture game hands down. 💡 Eel Lovers’ Guide to Ordering Must-Try Eel Rice Hacks: Ask for extra lettuce leaves (free!); Mix eel sauce into rice for full flavor immersion; Save seaweed soup for when sweetness overloads. When to Visit: Weekdays for quieter service—weekends get busy, but eel is always fresh. 🕒 Hidden Menu Tip: Order "eel + sashimi combo" if you can’t decide—half eel rice, half sashimi bibimbap (call ahead, it’s off-menu). 🌟 Who Should Dive into This Eel Feast ✔️ Go if: You believe eel should be the star, not a side You’re willing to balance sweetness with lettuce wraps You want bang for your buck in SP’s pricey dining scene ✖️ Skip sashimi bibimbap if: You crave bold, spicy flavors You need crispy textures in every bite 🐟 Final Verdict: Eel > All II Mi Jeong proves that sometimes, happy accidents (read: eel) outshine original plans. Come for the generous portions, stay for the sticky-sweet umami—but don’t say we didn’t warn you about the deliciously addictive sugar overload. 🍚✨ #SaoPauloEelRice #KoreatownSP #BrazilianFoodieFind #EelLover #KoreanRestaurantReview
