You get the sense from this place that if you were unsure about what to order, you would get a clear explanation of what is in each dishSeoul Kitchen launched its gazebo-style market stall in 2016 and now trades at three different markets. The menu is concise, offering the Korean specialities of bulgogi, marinated beef; dakgalbi, a spicy, stir-fried chicken; japchae, stir-fried glass noodles; and jars of home-made kimchi.
The half and half is served with a large helping of nicely cooked white rice. The beef slices in the bulgogi have a slight sweetness and bit of heat from the sauce – a blend of soy sauce, sesame oil, oyster sauce, garlic, ginger, sugar, pear, kiwi and black pepper – and is mixed with stir-fried cabbage and scallions. The chicken is a bit spicier, in a gochujang-based sauce with cabbage and carrots.
