Jung Soo Ne Restaurant - Richmond Hill

We came for lunch on Sunday and found the restaurant to be small, but we were promptly seated at a table.

When I am in the mood for genuine, authentic Korean cuisine, this is my go-to spot.__Even though it's a bit of a drive for us, it is definitely worth it.__The quality of the gochu is top-notch.

I cannot vouch for the authenticity of this restaurant, but it appears to be family-owned and the staff all speak Korean. The food is not outstanding, but...

The GanJang GeJang raw crabs arrived in two plates and split open to reveal the guts inside each small blue crab. It looked mighty fresh. Gen was a big fan of the special soy sauce blend and taught us to eat it by taking some of the rice and putting it into the shell of the crab in order to use up the soy sauce blend. The soy sauce was actually really delicious!The difference between cooked crabs and raw crabs is that the meat in the raw crab was very gooey, with its texture and consistency similar to that of egg yolk. It was chilled and very gooey. You cannot distinguish any ‘meat’ inside at all. It also took a bit of time to chew through the shell and legs of the crab in order to eat it. However, it was a very unique and satisfying experience! The rice really went well with the soy sauce blend as well.

This is an authentic and quaint little Korean restaurant tucked away under the apartment complex along Yonge Street. Service was prompt and polite. Tables were for 2, 4 or 6. Washrooms were very clean, if that`s important to you.What I love about this place was that it serves up dishes most restaurants don`t ie. blue crab stew and raw blue crab.We ordered the Spicy Crab Stew for 2, which was under $30. Portions were ample and side dishes were all amazing. I`d definitely come back to try their marinated raw blue crab. Mmmm! Parking: Behind the apartment complex - not many.Alochol: Yes.
