I paid 33,000 KRW for what was supposedly "2 portions," but I was disappointed by the small serving size. Additionally, despite requesting a non-spicy option, the stew I received was still too spicy for my liking.
On a positive note, I did appreciate the unique creamy flavor of the stew. However, given the high price and underwhelming portions, I found the overall experience to be overrated.
One aspect I did like was the availability of a charger next to the table, which came in handy for those needing to charge their phones.
However, it's worth mentioning that the language barrier posed a challenge as everything was in Korean, and the waiter couldn't speak English, making communication difficult.
In conclusion, while the stew had its merits, it was overpriced, small portions, language barrier, and incorrect spice level left much...
Read moreA solid dinner spot in Seoul for crazy delicious creamy galbi-jjim. Expect some wait at dinner time.
Yet don’t trust Korean when they say the food isn’t spicy — this was SPICY AF. My zero-spice-tolerant friend was struggling. You know it was fr delicious as she still insisted to eat more. 1000/10 recommended but try at your own risk.
*Creamy Galbi-jjim (braised short ribs) 크림 소 갈비찜 The pot was LOADED with big chunks of braised short ribs. The ribs were tender and well-marinated. We added glass noodles for free and it absorbed the creamy spicy sauce. Def a must order add-on. The tteokbokki was flavorful and perfectly chewy. They offer unlimited refills for noodles...
Read moreSuch an incredible meal we found in Sinchon! This place gets super popular during peak lunch and dinner hours, so we came right around when it reopened for dinner, and the queue was very short. The waiters were all very helpful and welcoming. We got the cream galbijjim, which was filled with such tender meat and delicious glass noodles and rice cakes. There are 5 levels of spice to choose from, and we chose 2, which had the perfect kick. The soup was so creamy and flavorful, and you can even get unlimited refills on the noodles and rice cakes. We also ordered the egg soufflé, corn cheese, and rice, which were all amazing. I highly recommend trying this...
