Bibimbap with chicken ($88) - Getting the ball rolling was a simple bibimbap. We had a choice between beef and chicken, and Jelloman promptly went with chicken coz we had a little too much beef of late. This was pretty decent with a lot of rice crispies.
Korean style marinated pork knuckle ($168) - I will be off to China this weekend and since I knew I would probably have a lot of spicy food coming my way there, I decided to take a pass on barbecued meat or any kind of spicy dishes for that matters. Pork knuckle sounds like the perfect replacement right there.
But I thought this pork knuckle dish brought a whole new meaning to the word "marinated". Personally, I have never had something marinated that tasted as bland as this one! Disappointing...
Pan-fried seafood pancake ($108) - The pancake itself was alright but I didn't find much seafood in there other than a couple small pieces of octopus in microscopic size. Would have been much much better to have some shrimp in there for a bit of different texture and flavor.
It wasn't a very good pick by Jelloman and she knows it. I guess it's safe to say that she won't be calling any shots in the near future.
