London, ON Foodie Guide: No Hungry International Student Left Behind!
๐ฐ๐ท KOREAN FOOD ๐ Korean Restaurant (Yes, thatโs its real name!) BEST Korean food in London! Must-try: pork bone soup (gamjatang) + seafood pancake. Huge portions, super authenticโworth the drive! Fun fact: Celebrated my first birthday here! ๐ Chicken Plus Creamy Onion Chicken = LIFE-CHANGING. ๐ง ๐ Cash payments get a discount! Also great: snow onion fries + soy garlic wings. ๐ Hanyang Jokbal (Braised Pork Hocks) Not my thing, but friends LOVE it. The mayo seaweed rice balls are a must! ๐ Ozen Budget-friendly, decent Korean food. Good for cravings when you canโt make it to Korean Restaurant. ๐จ๐ณ CHINESE FOOD ๐ Lung Seng Congee London classicโlocals and international students all love it. Great for groups! Try: Congee, dim sum, stir-fries. ๐ Dongbei Cuisine (Northeastern Chinese) Hearty portions! Hits: stewed beans & pork, sour cabbage, dumplings. Warning: Inconsistent, but worth it for homesick Northeasterners. ๐ Ju Xiang Pot Affordable, convenient. Hit-or-miss (sometimes too salty), but decent variety. ๐ Da Tang Saturday hot pot buffet = MEAT HEAVEN. ๐ฅฉ๐ฅ Skip the BBQ, just go for the sesame sauce hot pot. ๐ฏ๐ต JAPANESE FOOD ๐ Shiki Fancy but small portions. Good for dates, not for hunger. ๐ Gozen Creative sushi rolls! Better quality than all-you-can-eat spots. ๐ Heart Sushi (All-You-Can-Eat) Improved recentlyโmore seafood options. Avoid the greasy fried items. ๐ 168 Sushi Solid AYCE sushiโgreat for hungry groups! ๐ฅ KOREAN BBQ ๐ Miku BBQ Budget-friendly AYCE (like a cheaper Gyubee). Perfect for meat cravings! ๐ Daldongnae New chain spot! Love their butter corn + banchan (side dishes). ๐ฌ Got more recs? Drop them below!
