Korean Flank Steak Rice Bowl (Steak Doep Bap)
The meat was fine but the sauce had spilled and was overpowering.

Korean Flank Steak Rice Bowl (Steak Doep Bap)
Is there some way to make the meat more rare (at least pink)? And more tender? This would be a great meal except for that!

Coconut Red Curry & Roasted Salmon
I'm very picky about fish. I find most salmon to be over cooked. I did feel this salmon was slightly over cooked but there was plenty of sauce & a nice large piece of fish. Was also a bit too spicy.

Korean Flank Steak Rice Bowl (Steak Doep Bap)
Meat was chewy and inedible

Beef Bulgogi Pilaf
Bulgogi feels like an inaccurate word to describe this. It's more like roast beef.

Udon Noodle Soup with Shrimp
The broth is flavorful, but everything else is pretty bland. Also, this is definitely on me, I should have checked before ordering it, but a big reason

Keto Bulgogi Ssam
it was good, not into keto, should not have ordered. If you are into keto, you will love it!
