π¨π¦ The Korean-Chinese Spot in DT Toronto
π Gyodong 694 Bloor St W, Toronto FINALLY - a proper Korean-Chinese restaurant downtown! After years of having to trek north for decent jjajangmyeon (black bean noodles), Koreatown got this gem months ago. The Vibe: Rainy Monday lunch? Still packed with Koreans - always a good sign. What We Devoured: π Jjajangmyeon ($9.99) The noodle texture! Not your typical yellow noodles - springy with a secret-recipe vibe. Sauce nearly rivals Beijing Sung (high praise!). πΆοΈ Spicy Seafood Noodle ($13.99) Observed: Every Korean table ordered this. Free rice refills to mix with leftover broth - genius. π₯’ Sweet & Sour Pork Massive portion, extra-crispy (maybe too crunchy for me). Stick to the noodles next time. My Personal Toronto Korean-Chinese Rankings: π₯ Beijing Sung π₯ Poong Moon π₯ Tie: Iryewon / Sunny Dragon 4οΈβ£ Tie: Jjajang 1980 / Paikβs Noodle 5οΈβ£ Gyodong (All worth trying!) Final Verdict: A no-frills carb haven. Go for the noodles, skip the meat. #TorontoKoreanFood #HiddenGems
