Chicago Korean Cuisine | New Spot Nailing the Vibe and Flavor 🐯
This newly opened Korean restaurant in West Town has nailed the minimalist style and Korean vibe right from the moment you step in. There aren't many seats, but the ones by the window get great sunlight. They offer delicate appetizers before the meal, and though the menu isn't long, every dish is a winner. It's perfect for dates, girls' get-togethers, or just a relaxed time with a drink. 😊 ✨Recommended Dishes: 1️⃣ Galbijjim (Braised Short Rib) 🥣 Short ribs braised to tenderness in a small pot, with potatoes and carrots. The rich, slightly sweet sauce pairs perfectly with the marbled beef, making every bite of rice and beef a pure bliss. 🥢 2️⃣ Spicy Chicken 🍗 This dish is a total rice game-changer! The chicken stir-fried with cabbage in a spicy sauce is both fragrant and fiery, with a great wok hei. Every bite delivers that signature spicy kick. It's best enjoyed with rice—one bowl won't be enough! 🍚 3️⃣ Ssam Platter (Lettuce Wraps) 🥬 Comes with a variety of sauces, kimchi, and pickled peppers. You can wrap the meat yourself for a refreshing and fun experience. The vegetables are super fresh, and even those who aren't big fans of lettuce will be won over! 🥬 4️⃣ Yuja Next Door (Yuzu Cocktail) 🍋 Enjoying a meal with a drink is pure joy. This cocktail has a light yuzu aroma and cool bubbles, making it refreshing and not too sweet. It's also great for photos! 📸 5️⃣ Chive Pancakes 🥞 A bit greasy, but in a good way. The crispy edges and rich filling make every bite super satisfying, especially when dipped in the sauce. 😋 🎯 Restaurant Name: MISTER TIGER 🐯 #ChicagoKoreanCuisine #ChicagoFoodie #ChicagoEats #ChicagoUniversity #ChicagoDowntown
