Unassuming little Korean restaurant/coffee shop with a great menu where you can find from your traditional local pastries, coffee and sandwiches to a rather rich, beautifully unctuous Korean menu that includes perfectly prepared glass sweet potatoe noodles with kimchi and eggs, a well balanced, amazingly tasty smooth beef bibimbap with a side of Korean style rice and fresh vegetables on a perfect balance of quantity, aromas and taste, I must say that even offer traditional Western dishes are prepared with dedication and love, meaning awesome flavors!
Service is diligent and super friendly, the owner and evidently chef is attentive to their clientele, which evidences a love for her "métier" and satisfaction of their clientele is at the heart of their little yet punchy restaurant.
A must visit while at NDG, or may I suggest, a good reason...

Our food came, with a minimal apology . Our eggs and bacon were over cooked and the potatoes were undercooked. I can understand that mistakes happen but no compensation was offered at the cash. Terrible...
