Even though I just came here recently, I couldn't resist craving for plain tofu again so I came back. The lunch beer is only 290 yen and comes with a generous portion. I also ordered some seaweed tsukudani as a snack. It looks different from the photo, but it tastes delicious so it's okay. The plain tofu is delicious with plenty of ingredients and a generous serving size. The kimchi is light and can be eaten like a salad. It's delicious. The heat and spiciness make me sweat, but I like it. Wiping away the sweat and panting, I'm completely absorbed in the meal. In the past, I was told to mix the egg, but I prefer it cooked until it's half-done without mixing. It's so delicious. I'm so full. All this food for around 1700-1800 yen. It's cheap. There aren't many customers, which worries me, but I hope they stay in business for a long time. Thank you for the meal!

I think they used to sell cosmetics and such, but I noticed it had turned into a dining hall. I remember getting the pure tofu stew and tteokbokki to go before. It was delicious, so I was drawn in. The pure tofu stew is really good, right? Rice is ordered separately. Oh, lunch beer is only 280 yen! Lucky! I had beer with jeon and bean sprout namul. Then, rice with pure tofu stew and kimchi. Mmm, delicious. Korean food is so tasty, right? Yeah, it's nice! Delicious! I would definitely come back here again. It's nice that barley tea is all-you-can-drink, but it was a bit bitter because the pack was left in. Please improve on that. It was delicious! Thank you for the meal!

We just opened the store, so the interior is very clean. My partner had the cold noodle soup, and I had the Yukgaejang-Kkuppa. The Yukgaejang-Kkuppa was spicy, flavorful, and full of ingredients, very delicious. I couldn't help but finish the soup. The cold noodle soup had a delicious sour soup and noodles. The side dishes were Namul and Jijimi, which were also tasty. Payment can be made with PayPay, and cashless is accepted. Next to the store, there are Korean ingredients, side dishes, and cosmetics for sale. The cosmetics were explained by Korean staff and were reasonably priced, which was lucky. Korean music was playing in the background, making it feel like I was in Korea. It was a delightful experience!

A new Korean restaurant opened in Kitahara Shopping Street. It was created by downsizing the existing Korean shop DAMOA in the area, and now serves as a lunch spot during the day and an izakaya in the evening (day drinking is also allowed). Despite the bad weather, the menu board outside caught my attention, but I quickly entered the restaurant. The shiny interior had about 5 tables, which was more spacious than I expected. There were two types of menus available - the grand menu and the lunch menu, with a wide variety of lunch options to choose from. I decided to order the "Iron Plate Bulgogi Set" and the "Iron Plate Samgyupsal Set". The menu also included rice bowls and bibimbap, but I wanted to try something less common (as bibimbap is usually available at barbecue restaurants). While ordering, I noticed the Samgyetang (ginseng chicken soup) at the bottom right corner of the menu, which I overlooked. I wonder if the term Samgyetang is commonly used in Korea as well. The waitress, a single female staff member, managed the hall alone, while the kitchen had a separate cook. There was one customer before me and no one after me. The meal started with three side dishes, soup, and rice - kimchi, namul, cold tofu, and egg soup. The kimchi appeared spicy but the other dishes were not. The soup was not the typical sesame oil-based soup found in Korean cuisine, but rather an egg soup. The rice was served in a Japanese-style tea cup. The main dishes were served on iron plates, with the Samgyupsal consisting of pork belly, onions, and leeks with a delicious sesame oil salt flavor. The portion seemed small, but the thick slices of meat were just right. The Bulgogi, on the other hand, was not spicy and had a taste similar to sukiyaki with meat, vegetables, and mushrooms stir-fried together. The bill was cash only (they mentioned that they may add cashless payment options in the future). The prices on the menu were excluding tax, which I realized only when I checked the menu again. They also gave me Korean seaweed at the end. There are Korean restaurants in Nogata that offer takeout and evening service, but I feel like there aren't many places that serve lunch, so I was happy to find this spot. It's conveniently located and seems like a good place for a casual drink (although I always say this without much experience). With the rainy season starting, I look forward to returning on bad weather days.

I love the pig's feet dish, it's my favorite!

Beer is happy hour until 8:00 PM!
