Holiday memory — Bibimbap that transported me back
I first ate Bibimbap on a trip five years ago and have been searching for a version this good ever since. This restaurant finally delivered the fiery and fermented quality I remembered. kimchi brine was handled correctly — something most restaurants here get slightly wrong.
Korean cuisine integrates fermented ingredients like kimchi as a health and preservation tradition. It was the a Korean barbecue restaurant with table grills memory that I was really chasing and this recreated it. barley tea was offered and brought the whole experience together. Some dishes are attached to a time and place. This one finally restored that attachment.
