Buenos Aires | Kimchi Garden: A Hidden Korean Gem in Microcentro! 🍲🔥
Tired of the usual Mr. Ho or Fa Song Song? Discover Kimchi Garden, a new Korean spot in downtown BA that offers great value and authentic flavors! Opened in late 2023, this cozy eatery is perfect for a quick lunch or a unique Saturday dinner. 🍽️ What We Ordered: 🌶️ Sundubu Jjigae (Spicy Tofu Soup) – Packed with minced pork, shrimp, and egg! Served with steamed rice + 3 banchan (water spinach, fried zucchini, and seaweed). The broth is rich, though it could use some kimchi for extra punch. 🍗 Fried Chicken Dosirak – Two flavors: sweet & spicy + soy garlic. Comes with rice and pickled radish. The chicken was a bit dry—not as juicy as Annyeong’s. 🍵 Tea – Stick to Chinese tea if you prefer something lighter. 💰 Total: ~24,000 ARS (great price for a filling meal!). ✨ Why Visit? ✅ Budget-Friendly – Big portions at fair prices. 📅 Unique Hours: Only open weekday lunches + one Saturday night per month (check their IG for updates!). 📍 Need to Know: 🔍 Name: Kimchi Garden 📍 Address: San Martín 687, Microcentro ⏰ Hours: Mon-Fri 10:30 AM - 3:00 PM | Special Saturday dinners (usually 2nd Sat/month, 7-10:30 PM). Verdict: 7.5/10 – A solid Korean fix in the city center, especially if you crave homestyle stews. Not perfect, but worth trying for something new! #KimchiGardenBA #KoreanFood #BuenosAiresEats #HiddenGem #SpicyTofuSoup #KFood #BudgetEats #BAFoodie 🥢🔥
