Recently a coworker told me about a Korean takeaway shop that opened in the Canal Road wet market area. She loved it and said the kimbap was made to order. I was curious but a bit wary because it also sold frozen food. But then after a chat with my hair stylist who also said she loved this place for the made to order food, I decided to give it a try.
The shop does sell frozen food. But it's neatly separated on one side of the shop, far away from the cooked food items.
Menu is in Korean, English and Chinese. As it's takeaway only, there is no 10% service charge. Some items (the seasoned and kimchi items) are pre-made but seemed fresh and placed in well conditioned refrigerators. The rest is made to order.
Boyfriend came over and we ordered in. Everything was placed in sturdy containers and we experienced no spillage.
They had a number of fried chicken but we decided on the Original Baby Boneless KFC ($42, small size). For a small size, you still get 8 pieces. This is made to order so it was piping hot even when we got home. The skin was well seasoned and crispy. The meat was juicy and tender.
The Fried Pork Kalbi Dumpling ($48) were also made to order. You get a total of 6 pieces and came with a tangy dipping sauce. I really liked these. Not too oily and the skin was very crispy.
The filling was packed with a very savory pork meat.
The Eggroll ($55) tasted as good as it looked. Fluffy and soft, there were a good assortment of vegetables and nori. This was a bigger portion than expected as it was quite large in size.
Seasoned Bean Sprout ($25, small size) were well seasoned and generous portions for a small size.
Seasoned Spinach ($25, small size) was also generous in portion. There was a nice fragrant taste of sesame and garlic.
Beef Kimbap ($53) was made to order. This is rare as most places always sells these pre-made. Portions as a lot as well. The beef was well seasoned. The vegetables were fresh and crisp.
Definitely would be back and order more takeaway next time to try something else.
