oh yes, im so lucky to be in a team which (most of them anyway) adores korean food as much as i do.
so we went for good old korean food at e!ght @ central on thursday.
verdict: some delights though pricey
the menu is surprisingly sparse compared to most korean restaurants.
mainly on different varieties of beef and pork (yes, no chicken!).
so you thought the meat has to be good, ya?
yes and no.
we ordered the beef tenderloin which was so good, juicy and tender we ordered a second round of it.
we ordered the eight flavour (which is pork marinated in 8 flavours basically - miso, curry, wine etc) which was pretty interesting and itself a novelty.
but at $98, it was really not worth the price i feel....though it was not too bad.
the kimchi stew was alright though not spicy enough.
same for the seafood pancake but somehow lack the extra punch...
and tonight, tried yet another korean restaurant with the family - bornga.
and it was.........bleh.
we ordered 2 types of beef + 1 pork belly. the meat was bland, totally disappointing.
the kimchi stew and seafood pancake were so-so too.
when we asked the elder son which is the nicest of all, he answered:"白饭."
i can hear my husband's heart bleeding for the money spent for such comments.. LOL.
i so want to try big mama and red pig soon!
and i need to shout here: the best "house" rice wine is at wang dae bak! :D
