TLDR: Miss Kimchi is hands-down the best Korean street food in Warsaw. Always fresh, tasty and authentic. Even when food is delivered - it does not lose it's quality. The stuff is always helpful and nice.
Long version: While the selection isn't very broad, I would say it is perfect. They always ensure that the food is available and made fresh. All the dishes I have tried were perfectly seasoned and the ingredients were always of high quality. It is not something you'd expect from a place with lower prices (seriously, in comparison to other places serving Korean food, Miss Kimchi has an amazing price : amount ratio!). Visit in the place was always the best experience for me.
But since the pandemic, one cannot simply 'walk in' and that is where the delivery service thrives! Another amazing surprise - even when the delivery time is longer (maximum wait time I had was I believe 2 hours, so it is worth to order in advance), the food arrived still hot and fresh. The side dishes are always perfect, never once have I got "wet" kimchi cakes or things mixed up because of the chaotic adventures on the road. Delivery person was always nice and accommodating, even when in rush.
To sum it up: I can wholeheartedly recommend Miss Kimchi for any occasion (or no occasion!). This review was long time coming and I hope that after the craziness of pandemic ends, I will be able to go there once again.
Amazing work, Miss Kimchi -...
Read moreTo conclude this trip, I find myself in Warsaw, Poland, enjoying the most satisfying meal I've had in the past ten days. Appropriately, it’s Korean cuisine—a fitting choice for someone like me, whose palate finds comfort in such flavors. Despite knowing that airport lounge offerings and in-flight meals awaited me, past experience had taught me they would fall short of satisfying my taste preferences after nearly two weeks of my food flavorful profile deprivation.
During my search, Google directed me to a restaurant called Miss Kimchi, which seemed to be a promising choice. Upon arrival, I immediately noticed its trendy appeal—the line stretched outside the door, and I found myself and a whole lot of people waiting in the freezing 40°F weather. The restaurant itself is quite small and primarily caters to a local Polish audience, as I appeared to be the only guest with Asian features.
Their menu emphasizes bento-style dishes, but when I asked the server for a recommendation, she suggested the Korean beef soup as their most popular item. The soup did not disappoint; it was a delightful change from what I had endured over the past 10 days. While the flavors were subtly adapted to suit Polish people tastes, the experience was thoroughly worthwhile and an excellent choice to end my trip on...
Read moreI did not expect an authentic Korean food restaurant in Warsaw, of all the cities in the Europe. One of the best Korean restaurant I've been to, and certainly one of the least expensive, even compared to LA or Korea.
We ordered spicy chicken (not really a traditional Korean food, but I guess it's been popular for quite some time), and kimchi soup (chige). Okay, a bit on the sweet side, but I don't use sugar in anything, as a full disclosure. The food was quite good - okay, japchae isn't like what my mom used to make, but still, it tastes like japchae, and I can't always say that in many fancier restaurants.
So, the kimchi soup was round 7 euro, and chicken was around 7.50 euro ish. Try to find that kind of price anywhere, including Los Angeles and Korea. And, the quality was quite good, possibly top 3 outside of the US and Korea.
The service was also quite good - okay, maybe service is an overstatement, but the cashier was friendly and patient, and the servers were efficient.
It's like the McDonalds of Korean food from ambiance perspective, but I really enjoyed the...
