K-bop
So...we fell off the planet for a second. But we're back with hopes of steady updating :)
Anyway, for a while we were on the hunt for takoyaki and stumbled upon this cute little place. Sadly, they do not have takoyaki but they have ebiyaki (shrimp instead of octopus). The restaurant is modern and cute, also very clean. We've noticed that a trend for Korean-owned restaurants is to have K-pop music videos playing on multiple TVs through the restaurant? Anyway, to the food.
This is the ebiyaki. It was verrrrry tasty and an acceptable replacement for takoyaki (although, if you are a takoyaki fan, the ebi gives it a tougher texture).
Like most Korean restaurants, there are refillable starters that come with yor meal. Seeing how this is a "Korean tapas" restaurant, there is definitely some culture fusion with their food. ...like the macaroni salad below. These were not bad but not mind-blowing.
Eugenia had the Gogi Bento pictured below. It came in an actual "I'm going to work, this is my lunch" bento box ^_^ Rice was cooked so nicely; it was fluffy and moist, like the rice used for sushi. Meats were also cooked well.
Andy doesn't remember what he ate and we didn't get a picture. But for dessert, we shared the Honey Brick Toast with Ice Cream. Pretty good (how can you go wrong with honey, butter, ice cream, and chocolate syrup?) but the toast was pretty unsaturated, leaving it a bit dry.
Tips: GET THE HONEY ICED GREEN TEA. FREE REFILLS AND INCREDIBLY INCREDIBLE. Also, food is good as leftovers.
Amenities: “Happy Hour” from 3:00pm-7:00pm—30% off drinks.
