Colourful BibimbapWith a good Korean bibimbap, your metal bowl should be really sizzling hot. Hot enough to burn your fingers on (so be careful) but when you've finished eating the assorted veggies and meats on top, you should find a deliciously crispy browned rice bottom, which has been busy frying away the whole time on your table :)
Side dishes are the best thing about eating Korean :)Clockwise from top, there was the usual kimchi (pickled chilli cabbage), chilli beansprouts, shredded spinach, iced beansprouts, sweet chilli bamboo, and spiced sweet potato leavesDifferent K restaurants have their own specialty side dishes, so even if you're addicted bulgogi beef and order it no matter where you go, never fear! you can still get your dose of variety from the sides.

KOREAN RESTAURANT #2
Outside Chung Jin Dong (on Pitt St), the sign says "Real Korean Food"
LOL.. we were intrigued~~
Entrance to Chung Jin Dong
Compact and friendlyThere were colour photographs of the food up on the walls, so we ditched the menus. I don't order beef very often because it so often turns out overcooked and gristly, but my sister was convinced that bulgogi beef would be good, so we went for it~~
More Korean Side DishesCheck out the honeyed potato and carrot pieces with sesame seeds on top! They were the best the best the best ! We totally couldn't stop eating them. Haha I even ordered double servings of side dishes just so we could have more honeyed potato mmmm. UNFORTUNATELY, this also meant double the amount of kimchi, which we almost died trying to finish = = ;
Beef bulgogi!As promised, the bulgogi beef was deliciously juicy and sweet, swimming in its marinade, with chopped shallots and sesame seeds sprinkled on top. Glassy potato noodles were slippery yet chewy, dripping with flavour from the bulgogi soup
