Restaurants in Ottawa - Soora

I think this place has changed the name. It is on 610 Sommerset in the middle of China town.

They have a good Bulgogi. My aunt, who is Korean found it quite tasty, so I believe they passed the test!

The prices are not cheap. Main dishes were around 15-20 CAD.

I would recommend it if you are in the area.

Restaurants in Ottawa - Joy

This is a good Korean restaurants with some Japanese options. The main dishes are around 20 CAD per person. I liked the Bulgogi Dopbap. Not sounding too picky, I do not find it so appetizing receiving the spicy sauce in a Ketchup type bottle.

I personally prefer the Korean restaurants in 610 Sommerset (formally known as Soora).

Since this is much closer, I would however recommend this Korean restaurant.

Restaurants Vienna - Seoul (recommendable)

I am a big fan of Korean food and there used to be quite a few good ones in Vienna before. For those who know my favourite one in London - nothing of course beats the good old Ran. But this one is quite tasty too.

The Bulgogi lunch menu costs 8,50 Euros and the Bimbimbap 7,00 Euros. It is a great treat! For those of you who are newcomers to Korean food. Bulgogi is thin sliced beef marinated in a soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic sauce. If it is not in a bento box then some restaurants have table grills.

Restaurants London - Ran (very recommendable)

I am a big fan of Korean food and have tried quite a few in London, but this is my favourite for the Bulgogi. This place is not only delcious, but great value for money! As you probably know, London is not known for cheap and good food. Quite the contrary, you will find a lot of average food for very steep prices.

My favourite dishes are:

Beef with glass noodles 5.50 GBP

Korean Flatbread (spring onios and seafood baked in a Korean dough) 6.40 GBP

Bulgogi (Korean beef BBQ) 6.25 GBP

Dolsot Bimbimbap (shreds of vegetables, beef, rice and a sweet chili sauce heated in a heavy stone dish) 7.95 GBP

Restaurants Montreal - La Maison du Bulgogi

It was my first time to Montreal. I loved it! A great vibrant city with so many restaurants from all over the world it becomes difficult to chose which one to go to!  

La Maison du Bulgogi was absolutely deeeeeelicous!!! A huge variety of Korean dishes. When you come into the restaurant your mouth is already watering from the great smells coming from the kitchen! It is a big room with simple tables and simple to no decor, so you would go to this place just for the food.

We ate the following:

-Bulgogi (marinated broiled beef) - one of my absolute favorites in Korean food. 12.95 

-Gam Ja Tang (pork bone with potato soup) - for those who are more adventurous and do not mind a little bit messy dish try this one. You get a plastic glove so that you can hold the bone and take of the meat without getting your hands dirty. The meat is very tender, flavorful, perhaps a little fatty for some peoples taste. Even if you just use the soup to pour over your rice it is very tasty. 7.95 

-Jap Chae (stir fried potato noodles with vegetable and beef) 9.95 

-Pa Jun (Korean style Pizza or Pancake with green onions and seafood) 12.95

Restaurants Los Angeles - Yong Su San

This is a traditional Korean restaurant in Koreatown.

The Jap Chai (glas noodles with vegetables stir-fried) and BiBim Bap (steamed rice and various vegetables, seasoned beef and oyster mushrooms with chili) are both delicious. The main dishes are served with a lot of little side dishes (spinach, bean sprouts and kimchi).

The atmosphere is simple, but traditional with a lot of wood. The service is friendly and quick.

Since LA has a huge Korean population, if you like Korean food it is definitely worth checking out some Restaurants there. There are some of the best Korean restaurants in the world there.
