Tani

Japanese, Korean
April 6, 2016 SAVORY FOOD: Their fried chicken is top notch and is this restaurant’s shining specialty. A great Korean bar to eat savory dishes and grab some drinks. All of their savory dishes are pretty large and are much better for sharing family style with your table. The chicken is juicy with extremely crispy breading – perfect. […] {More...}

Cooking: Kimchi Fried Rice

Cooking, Korean
August 7, 2013 I love kimchi fried rice. I finally know the secret to getting it so red…it’s the Korean pepper paste. We used Maangchi’s recipe. 3 cups cooked rice 1 cup kimchi chopped 1/4 cup kimchi juice 1/4 cup water 3 tbsp pepper paste 3 tsp sesame oil 1 tbsp sesame seed Stirfry kimchi in oiled pan […] {More...}

Hashigo Korean Kitchen

Korean
December 21, 2012 Kimchi: This place markets itself as a korean kitchen, but it’s more like a fusion place. If you like fusion food and/or have got an open mind, then come on down! Kimchi: Complimentary banchan! Now that is legit!!! You can get free refills. Everyone devoured the sweet GamJa JoRim potato side dish – it was […] {More...}

Cham Sut Gol

Korean
February 3, 2012 Kimchi: We had all you can eat Korean barbeque with 6 other people. We were too busy eating and chatting that we didn’t take pictures, haha. This is the only picture I have of the food – a sad picture of our dirty grill with a small pile of meat in the corner that nobody […] {More...}

Incheonwon BBQ House

Korean
August 30, 2011 Kimchi: The steamed egg soup is super good. We really enjoyed eating the meats with rice paper and daikon vegetable. Their other banchan weren’t that impressive in my opinion. My favorite was probably the brisket. Kimchi: You can have a small disposable cup of their pumpkin juice  before you leave the restaurant. It’s surprisingly really […] {More...}

Cooking – Ddeokbokki

Cooking, Korean
May 22, 2011 Kimchi: Isn’t the presentation cute? Haha. The Ddeokbokki was really spicy and yummy. I had the idea of adding egg noodles to the dish to kind of give it a little more variety than just the rice cakes. {More...}

Corea BBQ Restaurant & Freshia Market

Korean
April 8, 2011 Kimchi: This set of food was really reminiscent of BCD Tofu House, but for an unbelievable price. Like Martini said, it’s definitely a “hole in the wall” type of place because the food court wasn’t exactly the most polished. It was sort of shabby and ghetto looking (but not dirty). I wouldn’t take my high […] {More...}

Cooking: Doeji bulgolgi (spicy fried pork)

Cooking, Korean
December 13, 2010 The recipe from YouTube’s Maangchi is tried & true and never fails me. Maangchi’s recipe below with a few of my modifications. I usually double the recipe since everyone usually loves this dish! Ingredients: 1 pound meat (I prefer pork tenderloin or chicken thighs) ¼ cup hot pepper paste (gochujang) 1 tablespoon soy sauce 1 […] {More...}
