During the winter, I was feeling cold and craving kimchi, so I ordered Kimchi soup with rice and eggs. It was the best thing I had ordered, warming me up and the flavor of the soup base was fantastic. It satisfied my kimchi cravings 100%. I wanted another bowl but had to resist.

This restaurant offers authentic Korean "home-style" food. The ddeokbokki tastes just like my mother's and the staff always greets me with a big smile. I highly recommend trying their ddeokbokki, as well as their gimbap dunked in the sauce.
