it was a long time gone...

We LOVE Korean BBQ and it'd been FOREVER since we had it. And after we had this delectable meal at Shik Do Rak in Irvine (which, btw, was totally cheaper than the places in Korea Town that we used to frequent and just as good if not better) I have to ask, "Why did we wait so long?"

My friend Tae recommended the place and thankfully called ahead for us and added us to the wait list for a table since English isn't really the restaurant strong suit. When we got there, they had our table ready, a phone reservation for J. Kim @ 7:30. Good thing I look Korean.

Highlights:
-Rice and DAIKON wrappers for the meat
-A spicy chili dipping sauce
-The nice staff comes around and refills the side dishes! (usually we're too scared to ask and if we do, we get dirty looks)
-$40 for 2
-AND what we didn't know, but I learned after: instead of rice, you can get the burt rice in water like you get at BCD Tofu House!! Gotta go back for that one!

What a tease! the mouth-watering view of the table next to us that greeted us when we sat.
