To cut to the chase,
it was a meal
better than we expected!
The grilled fish was good,
but this is the kind of place
where you want to talk
about the side dishes first.
🐟 Crispy outside, moist inside
First, the main event:
the grilled fish
came out nicely done.
Crispy outside, moist inside!
Savory, with no fishy smell,
so the rice disappears fast.
A true “rice thief,” as Koreans say.
The portion was really generous, too.

White flesh under golden, crispy skin

🥢 The real draw: self-serve side dishes
What we remember most
is the self-serve side-dish corner,
run buffet-style.
You can help yourself
to neatly laid-out side dishes
as much as you like,
without feeling awkward about it.
Great value for money
and real satisfaction, both at once!

Side dishes from the self-serve corner — six kinds, a little on each plate
Even the labor-intensive ones,
like rolled omelet
and kimchi pancake,
were excellent.
My coworker and I
kept marveling as we ate.

Kimchi pancake and rolled omelet from the self-serve corner
with unlimited refills!
Rolled omelet and kimchi pancake too —
help yourself, no need to hold back
