I love Korean food....and for me The Kitchen is one of the best places around Point Grey for my Korean grub. I really enjoy the stone pot (dolsot) bibimbap and the bulgogi especially, which is very flavorful and strong (perfect for my taste!) This time I was curious about the ramyun which I never tried at a Korean restaurant but always seen it. I got the shabu-shabu ramyun, and chose mild spice (not really a friend of the heat so much). The noodles really sucked up the soup really fast. There wasn't really enough noodles but the soup was flavorful (don't drink too much, very salty) and the other components were perfectly balanced. Poshness: A cross between home-made midnight instant ramen and ramen at a high-ish class place (Jinya....?) I wish there were more side dishes for the ramyun and maybe they also should have given us the side dishes at the beginning of the meal!
I really like Korean food, and this is one of my favorite places to go to for my Korean food fix. Compared to other Korean food I've had, this is definitely one of the better places out there. Pricing for the food is pretty reasonable, and portions are also reasonable for one person. I believe there is an extra group tax on groups above 6 people, so I prefer coming here with just a few friends or by myself.
We picked this place because it was walking distance from our friend's place. The place is a little small, and quite popular. We ordered the BBQ pork, BBQ chicken, seafood tofu soup, and vegetarian bimbap. All of them were quite good and we cleaned up every dish, including the side dishes!
