I guess this was my first article written for the column, instead of African Market. Oh well.
Over the last few years I’ve started losing interest in
eating at chain restaurants. There is
nothing bad about them, just…there are so many other local options out there
worth eating that there really is no point anymore; I will spotlight some of
them here.
First being: Korea House
Growing up eating Bulgogi (or Pulgogi), I have an affinity
to this style of BBQ, regardless of its unusual flavor. Good Pulgogi will taste
sweet, a little salty (from the soy sauce), and be nutty from the sesame seed
oils used; theirs did not disappoint my childhood memories.
I also grew up with my Dad bringing home Kimchi, and I had
to try their Kimchi soup. This was what
sold me on this place for Korean cuisine. It was some of the best Kim-chi I’d ever had;
Salty, tangy, and spicy cabbage with beef, pork or chicken - I recommend the
beef or pork and to pour the rice right on top, you will be quite satisfied
indeed!
Korea House is on the East side of State St on the South end
of the strip-mall there; their virtual and physical addresses:
1465 s State St
Salt Lake City, UT 84115
(801) 487-3900
