Found the best military pot in Boston | Korean head must eat

🍢 KongDog Korean Restaurant: Boston’s Go-To forand K-Drama Vibes After craving more after their fried chicken and tteokbokki, I went back for budae jjigae (army stew) over the weekend—procrastination aside, this spot deserves the hype. If you love Korean comfort food, add it to your list (and check my saved folder for more recs). 🔥 The Standouts (Order These First) Budae Jjigae: 8/10 authenticity. Boston’s current top pick for this classic. Spicy, savory, loaded with spam, kimchi, and melted cheese—only downside? Skimpy on rice cakes. Still, it’s hearty enough to share (and soak up with ramen). Tteokbokki (Rice Cake Pot): Must-order. Chewy rice cakes swimming in a rich, moderately spicy sauce, plus tons of fish cakes (my favorite part). The fried sides that come with it? Crispy, salty, and perfect for dipping. Sweet-Spicy Fried Chicken Fries: Addictive. Juicy chicken coated in a glossy, sweet-heat sauce, served over crispy fries. It’s messy, flavorful, and the kind of appetizer that disappears in minutes. 😐 The “Meh” Ones Corn Dog: Tasty, but not standout. It’d shine at a lesser spot, but next to the stews and chicken, it feels ordinary. Fried Pork Cutlet Rice Bowl: A letdown. The cutlet was rock-hard—tasted like it was reheated or over-fried. Nothing like the crispy, tender versions you get at good Korean spots. Maybe an off day, but it’s a skip for now. 📸 Bonus: Ambiance The decor is peak Korean café vibes—bright, colorful, with perfect lighting for photos. Vloggers, take note: this place was made for content. 🆚 A Note on Westborough Korean Restaurant Once my go-to (run by a lovely Korean ajumma, with super authentic decor), but inconsistent freshness drove me away. KongDog, so far, feels more reliable. 📍 KongDog Korean Restaurant: 236 Elm St, Somerville, MA 02144. With prices ranging from $30–$50 per person, it’s a solid value for the portions and flavor. If you’re into hearty stews, crispy chicken, or just Instagram-worthy spots, this is a no-brainer. #BostonKoreanFood #BudaeJjigaeLovers #FoodieFinds
