Seriously, I don’t know why you guys think this place is so wonderful. The food is sketchy. I wasn’t happy with my Dol Sot Bibimbap at all. It was weird…almost like it was under cooked and all they gave me was bean sprouts!! I can take one or two, but not the entire freaking dish! Not at all like the Bibimbap you can get down at Keun Jip or even Kofoo. Blagh. I’m not going there again.

Definitely ask for extra sauce. Sadly, my egg came cooked hard, which limits the dol sot joy, and a few of the bits of meat were gristly. Still, it was good.

hey, I dropped by today….I had the spicy chicken premade “bento” and it was fantastic!!! WOW! I love the rice that tastes like it is steamed. Boiled, steamed…whatever they do it rocks, and the chicken was so good.

excellent Dol Sot Bi Bim Bap…

Word of warning, if you want and egg and like it not cooked hard, make sure you specify. My beef dol sot came sadly eggless and required 2 visits up front to be remedied.

An extra sauce request is also a must.

Crispy bits, nice ingredients — a definite “A” lunch experience.

I wasn’t too happy with my take-out box of bulgogi. I did go late (3pm or so) and they had to make it for me – which at that time I considered to be a good thing – but the quality of meat, and well, the rest of the food was definitely below average.

Maybe with the name upgrade, they also upgraded their ingredients?

The Dol Sot Bi Bim Bap was in fact top notch. Ask them for extra hot sauce on the side – that way you can ensure having some left as you get to the bottom of the bowl.

White, brown and wild rice are all boiled. Glutinous (or sticky) rice is steamed in a special Thai steamer. For about ten bucks you get a special pot and huge bamboo basket that looks like an upside down hat that you put sticky rice (that has been rinsed and soaked overnight) in. Cover and steam for 20-minutes. Yum-Yum eat ‘em up. The best rice you’ll ever have and the best ten dollars you’ll ever spend on a kitchen tool.

I’m Korean and I boil my rice…not sure how to steam rice.

And they do use the term “bento” in Korea along with numerous other “Japanese” and “foreign” words which have become part of the everyday lexicon.
