I’m not really a big fan of this chain but one of my best buddies is. Besides, not all chains are created equal and out of all the locations (I’ve tried them all), this one in Duluth puts out the best tasting food. So it’s been a regular lunch and late night option for us [...]

Don Quixote (Duluth)
I’m not really a big fan of this place but I have a best friend who is and eats here at least twice a week. Once in a while, I get dragged along. Don’t get me wrong. The food, on the average, is better than decent and some dishes are really good. So. Here’s what [...]
Noodle House: Jang Choong Dong
It’s the season for soups and my current obsession (among other ethnic soups especially ramen) includes yukgaejang. This has always been one of my favorite Korean soups. I love the spicy, savory, beef broth with a hint of tang. Gochugaru gives it this beautiful deep red color that glistens. The smell [...]
Kko Kko Chicken and Pizza
Pedestrian, run-of-the-mill Korean fried chicken. Small pieces. Okay batter. Get the plain ones. The spicy kind isn’t spicy at all and I really can’t get past the thick, gooey, cloyingly sweet sauce the chicken pieces are covered with.
The wings have potential, however. Crispy. Spicy. Juicy. Tiny.

Fave snack: Chocolate Fishies
Because I love chocolate. And I love the fish shape. A marriage between pancake and chocolate. Enough said.
My translator calls them Boonguhppang. They also make them with red beans inside. I prefer chocolates, of course. Get it from Super H Mart. 5 for $2.50 (2005) $3.00 (2007) [...]

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 [...]
Shabu King
I come from a family who love hot pots. While Shabu-shabu and sukiyaki have always been the favorites, my mom particularly likes Chinese hot pots. However, I’m beginning to really love Korean hot pots. The newest addition to the Korean dining scene is Shabu King inside Park Village in Duluth where Super [...]
