Hoppin' Korean restaurant in Big City Mall. Be advised it's very popular and if you don't have a reservation you'll likely have to wait a bit for a table. Because it's so busy it's a bit on the noisy side from dozens of conversations around you. It's one of the more formal, comfortable places to eat at Big City. Cash, credit card and e-wallet payments accepted.
Was brought here by friends specifically for the kimchi, and we were saddened to hear they were out of it at 5:30pm on a Monday night! Fortunately they were able to bring us some towards the end of the meal and it wasn't disappointing - definitely spicy with a great crunch.
Food was brought quickly and in great quantity. A variety of appetizers are served first - small squares of lightly seasoned seaweed, thinly sliced fruits, bean sprouts, greens, and usually kimchi! The main course was immense and designed for sharing. Hot soups full of tofu in a tangy tomato broth, seafood concoctions in a similar broth, an Asian style 'pancake' that's more akin to a small Western-style omelet full of diced veggies and meat, lettuce wraps with thinly sliced beef as filler. Dessert was a light flan-like pudding in a sweet base.
All the food was delicious and cooked just right. Hot tea at the start of the meal and other drink options to accompany the food. Highly recommended if you enjoy...
