E!ght Korean BBQ

I was skeptical when my mom suggested we go to E!ght Korean BBQ (formerly called Palsaik Korean BBQ) for dinner. But after a fantastic meal, this is now my favorite Korean BBQ spot!

We ordered the set menu: 8 flavors of pork belly, seafood soybean stew, grilled kimchi and bean sprouts, and mixed salad. I got a side order of rice and we shared a bowl of cold noodles at the end as well. The 8 flavors of pork belly are wine, original, ginseng, garlic, herb, curry, miso paste, and red pepper paste. Each flavor was an experience and I liked that it made me stop to think about and appreciate the different tastes. My favorite flavor was wine while the herb flavor was both of our least favorite. Herbs just don't pair well with Korean food...
