korean quest: dong won restaurant

one night, we craved for korean cuisine. we only see korean food in korea-novelas. the meals are very interesting as they usually show several appetizers in one regular meal.

near the office of my hunny, we crossed one korean restaurant. outside, you would only see a bungalow with an old and faded restaurant sign.
you need to have guts to check the place as it does not have all the glitters you expect in a restaurant.

but inside, cubicles are available for a real korean feast. low tables are available for added authenticity where in you sit on the floor to dine.

and best of all, the food is superb! we already went there several times trying all the out-of-the-ordinary dishes they offer.

the good thing is that koreans go there to eat. this sends a good signal that the restaurant is serving real korean taste.

the trick is to go there with a hungry stomach. get one dish...and enjoy the 10 appetizers they give you. different kimchis, tofu, eggs on a different way, veggies of a different kind. each day, new appetizers are introduced. there's a hint of excitement on every visit as you would be served something different each time. an added bonus is that these appetizers are refillable! with no extra cost!!!

and when you get the bill...price is very pinoy friendly!!!

now that your tummy is filled up and ready to go, the friendly receptionist will hand you a complimentary pack of kimchi for you take home. good way to end the night!!!!

ask for mich rosales when visiting the place. she serves well...a pioneer of the restaurant. she knows the food and attends to you alertly.
