🇺🇸 34/100: 100 Restaurants in Boston with My Boyfriend 💑
We tried Tofu Story – a new Korean spot in Allston that’s bringing a taste of LA’s famous Sun Nong Dan to the East Coast! 🧀🔥 While it doesn’t quite reach the legendary status of the original, it’s still a warm and cheesy comfort meal that hit the spot. Here’s the breakdown: Galbi Jjim (Braised Short Rib Casserole) 🥘 Tender, fall-off-the-bone short ribs simmered in a sweet-savory sauce with soft potatoes and carrots – topped with melted cheese via torch action! 🧀✨ Not as complex as LA’s version, but still satisfying. Soft Tofu Soup 🍲 Made with their house-ground tofu – silky, delicate, and deeply soothing. The banchan (side dishes) included fresh tofu, which was a highlight! Steamed Rice 🍚 Skip the premium rice – it’s not worth the extra cost. Stick with the standard. The vibe is simple and clean – typical of a neighborhood Korean eatery. It’s not mind-blowing, but if you’re craving cheesy Korean braised ribs without flying cross-country, this will do just fine. 📍85 Harvard Ave, Allston 34 down… 66 more food adventures to go! Even when it’s not perfect, it’s still delicious with you 😉💖 #BostonEats #KoreanFood #TofuStory #SunNongDanStyle #AllstonEats #ComfortFood #BostonFoodie
