It was clear to me that the spicy pork dosirak was made with care & keen attention to taste. I felt as if I had been transported back to the boonsik diners I miss so dearly back in Korea. I always feel like Korean food in Montreal is just, far too inadequate in taste compared to Toronto or Vancouver, but this place gives me hope that we are finally getting Korean food right in this city.
A mom & pop dining. Authentic Korean kimbap. So many flavor combinations & they can adjust it the kimbap for substitutions. Good spot when you're traveling & need Korean food ASAP
It's a hidden gem~ I am Korean living in Montreal & the food here reminds me of my time in Korea with with some modern style & Japanese fusion~ we tried the rose tteokboki, udon, tuna kimbap, yubuchobap, takoyaki, & kimchi! The two of us finish every last bite, it was so good & fresh. I really enjoy the cozy ambiance with the cute decorations, books & Korean pop music. I would highly recommend to come try it~ my favourite was the pork yubuchobap. Yuzu ade was so amazing too✨ I just wish there was more seating! ☺️
Cute little shop owned by mom & pop. If I was still a university student, I would come here to lunch at least once a week ! The tofu wrapped rice was delicious & you can choose up to 4 toppings ! Next time I come here, I'll have to try the tteokbokki & ramen.
Entering here immediately transported us to Korea, like we just entered a typical small shop. Gimbap looks similar to sushi rolls but is an entirely different flavor, many cooked meats like beef available. We added the Bong Bong combo to one order & it came with delicious chicken & nice fruit like fresh cherries & blackberries. There was Korean pop music playing & the decor is fun, including a tiny library. You can also buy dried ramen packs flavors here that are hard to find like kimchi. Only 4 to 6 people total can sit, which adds to the overall experience of a genuine simple Korean shop. The host is very kind & makes you feel at home. You pay when you order from the big computer touchscreen, so no waiting for the bill at the end.
I was in Japan a few months ago & was enthralled with the variety of tiny mom & pop foodie delight restaurants. Ok, this one is Korean but sitting in this two table micro delight took me back to Kyoto via Seoul. The food was an adventure & absolutely delicious. The atmosphere may reflect Korea, I'm sure, but for me I was back in Japan. Don't miss this fab foodie voyage. I will be back to explore the culinary magic.
