Day 33 - Korean BBQ

Technically we cooked for ourselves tonight...  we just did it at a restaurant.   R's flight was cancelled because of bad weather so we decided to go out for dinner and wanted to go somewhere we had never been.

We eventually decided on Korean Palace on Somerset St.  I had eaten Korean BBQ before but never there.  What I knew was we would be given a plate of thinly sliced, marinated, raw beef which we would cook on our own grill built into the table.  I knew there were a few side dishes but the meal we had at Korean Palace was better  than I had in the past.

Our waitress doted on us.  She cut our ribs into bite-sized pieces with scissors... made sure we didn't try to pull the meat off the grill before it was ready... and then showed us how we were supposed to eat the dish.

We ordered two types of meat: thin strips of raw beef, and beef ribs.  The ribs were not what I expected.  The meat hung off the side of the bone which made it much easier to eat.

Side dishes

When the meat was ready the waitress showed us how to pick up a piece of lettuce and top it with a small piece of meat, some rice and soy bean paste sauce.  We tried a few different variations by adding some of the side dishes.

It was delicious!!
