White dude eats Korean food (with pictures!)


      Last Sunday I went to a Korean BBQ restaurant with seven of my friends. This would the first time any of us would be eating Korean food. Now I'm the only one in the group that watches or plays SC2 and watches/listens to anything Korea related so the whole experience was fresher to them. I already had some idea of what to order (SOJU!).

      For those who have never eaten Korean food you might have a better time going with someone who has experience with Korean cuisine or just some Korean dude/chick, they'll probably know what to order. The one thing I noticed was the fact that we ordered TOO MUCH FOOD! I was shocked that we actually got so much food for fairly cheap ~20 bucks a plate. We might have ordered some dishes that were meant for 2 people.

      The restaurant was Insadong in Coquitlam, B.C. If any of you Vancouver boy's want to go eat I would suggest going there. They have three big private rooms which makes it comfortable for groups of people who are eating Korean food for the first time without regulars looking at you with a confused look while you try to read the menu.

Picture time:


[image loading]
This was Pork Bulgolgi and Chicken Bulgolgi which 2 people had ordered. I love the idea of cooking your own food at the table. A lot of Portuguese restaurants have hot stone's to cook steaks on them so most of us were comfortable with the idea of preparing our own meat.

[image loading]
Assorted tempura for all to share. Salmon, prawn, and fruit.

[image loading]
This was my dish, Bibimbap. I would have to say this is the perfect entry dish to the wonderful world of Korean cuisine. They give you spicy paste so you can make it to your liking. Side note: impossible to eat with glasses as they become perma fogged.

[image loading]
I think this was beef bulgolgi and my right arm. Once again a lot of food for one person. He is a big boy so he finished it by himself along with some udon noodles (he didn't eat my arm).

Well I hope I didn't make you guys too hungry. If you've never had Korean food get out there and try it!

You guys should have ordered Kalbi instead of bulgogi
They are both good but people like Kalbi better
Nevertheless looks great :D

Wow, that's a pretty small stove for Korean BBQ. It's better to go to an all you can eat Korean BBQ place with a built-in table grill. The quality of meat will be less, but...it's all you can eat.
No mention of kimchi...you should definitely try it if you have never done so before. It's more of an acquired taste, but it quickly becomes an addiction. Goes good with everything!

I just moved to a heavily korean part of my city and have been meaning to try out all the restaurants around but have no idea where to start or what to get. I am open to trying just about any food and I am sure i could find any korean dish around here. Any suggestions would be appreciated

It's been so long since I've gone to Korean BBQ, but I have a feeling I'll be correcting this soon. Delicious pictures man!

Yes Korean food is delicious and for sure one of my top 3 cuisines.

In my opinion, much more to my taste than Japanese or indeed Chinese food (although sushi is the best thing ever!)

I'm surprised they let you cook your own meat though. I know it's the proper way to do it, but I went to a Korean bbq place here in my town and they wouldnt let us cook it ourselves. The waitress had to come over and awkwardly cook it in front of us. When I asked her why, I was told because of stupid UK health and safety regulations.

There any asian marts nearby? Man, you should really go to a korean BBQ sometime. I know, come to MLG and then go to one at the same time! (Queue Artosis and Tasteless "at the same time!")

She put the meat on the cooker's and turned them on for us and came by a few times to check on how we we're doing. Does that count?
