Haru’s tonkotsu ramen has been consistently amazing these past few weeks. Want to jazz up your soup like I do? Add a soft-poached egg for $1.00 extra. You can thank me later.

Cheap eats, happy food: Book Chang Dong
Introducing… the Beef Bowl. $4.99. Happiness in a bowl. Perfectly steamed white Korean rice, loads of tender bulgogi in its own flavorful sauce. You can’t get happier than this. My happy food.

Best Lunch: Mini Hot Pot 2
One word: Pork. Three words: Braised Pork Belly. Enough said.
Available during lunch only. Braised for 6 hours and they only make one pot daily. Comes plated with perfectly steamed Jasmine rice and a fried egg. I ate it 3 days in a row two weeks ago. It was [...]
Best Korean Dinner: Cafe Tohdamgol
I took the pork fat drippings and drizzled it over my rice. OMG.
I eat Korean all the time. There was one week in May last year that I ate it 7 times in a week. Crazy. I’ve been here many times. But the other night was the best Korean dinner I’ve [...]
New Orleans Seafood
Thanks to one of my readers, Bill Petrosky, who sent me an email the other day tipping me of this new seafood/po’boy place in Duluth. It is located a few doors down from What The Pho and Cafe Tohdamgol. Opened just two weeks ago by a Vietnamese family, it is really more of [...]
Imane Moroccan Restaurant (Duluth)
I really wanted to like this place. The inside is just so charming with wall-to-wall Persian rugs, a hookah lounge, and authentic decor complete with what looks like hand-tooled Moroccan dining tables and chairs. Even the dinnerware is authentic. And they have live entertainment on weekend nights. I love how they [...]
Song Do Korean BBQ
Have you noticed I haven’t been posting anything Korean lately? I just want to mix it up a bit, that’s all. There are tons of Korean restaurants that have sprouted like mushrooms lately and there are actually two spots I haven’t written about and a few more I am planning to visit. But back [...]
Pollo Real (Assi Plaza Duluth)
Two words: Mexican Soup. The beef or chicken soup is fantastic. The broth is very flavorful with lots of tender meat, chunks of potatoes, carrots, corn, rice, and cilantro. I prefer the beef soup with huge cubes of fork-tender meat. Spicy. Tangy. Tasty. It’s the epitome of comfort food.
The flame-grilled [...]
China House: hand-pulled noodles
I’ve been hitting the new Assi Plaza Duluth food court for lunch for the last couple of weeks. My newest obsession: hand-pulled noodles. From the Chinese stall. You’d get a kick out of watching Mr. Noodles pull and whack his pasta on a table.
The noodles are just perfect. Noodles are [...]
Assi Plaza – Duluth
Contrary to what most of you think, I do cook. As much as 2-3 times a week. But sometimes, not at all. I eat all my lunches and some dinners out and I don’t eat leftovers so I have to supplement that with home-cooked meals (mine or my mom’s). I go to [...]
Bulgogi burger @ Fusion YoriJori Burger
Yup, you heard it right. Korean burgers. BULGOGI burgers! KIMCHI burgers!
Korean tacos aren’t the new thing anymore. Korean burgers are. Today, I had a succulent burger marinated in bulgogi sauce. It was juicy and tasty. But you know what happens when you marinate ground beef — the consistency of the meat [...]
LA Pho (Duluth)
This is not the place if you’re looking for authentic pho. Rather, the pho and much of the other dishes served here are Korean-inspired. I guess it’s what’s to be expected from a Korean-owned and operated joint. But don’t let that disappoint you. It’s not all that bad.
The broth doesn’t come [...]
Haru Ichiban
I first came to Haru Ichiban close to 10 years ago. It was such a fantastic place that I came several times a week. Japanese sushi chefs in the city came to eat here all the time. I still see one or two of them every now and then — to eat ramen. Aside [...]
Blue Fin Sushi (Duluth)
I grew up eating at SakanaYa, a popular joint among Japanese. They had an amazing robata menu (kushiyaki/yakitori), authentic dishes not found anywhere else, fantastic noodles, fresh sushi, and overall great Japanese food. After undergoing a change in management and ownership, they eventually closed after many years. I was ecstatic to find [...]
