After a 3-week hiatus, I'm back with a new work schedule, plenty of playoff hockey, a couple of trips to Detroit, and a few wonderful culinary experiences. I want to do reviews of these places, after going back for more research:
Detroit Brewing Company (the beer, the food is nothing to phone home over)
B. Nektar Meadery (also just the alcohol, no food service offered)
Motor City Casino's buffet
American Coney Island (and Lafayette)
Fishbonez (downtown, not the suburban locations)
Isalita (kind of hard to not be biased, I used to work for Mani)
But this one is on Seoul Garden, my personal favorite Korean restaurant in town. I go back over and over again, and every time I go, no matter what I order, it's fantastic.
Some menu highlights:
Bibimbop- Simply the best in town.
Je Yook Kimchi Bokum- A pork, tofu, kimchi dish that is very spicy. It's my favorite stir-fry, and their stir fries are great.
BBQ- In-table iron barbecue, for which you can get a number of different meat and vegetable combinations, ranging in price from decent lunch to extravagant. The "BBQ for 2" special is awesome, and has a little of everything, for about 45 dollars.
Sushi- also pretty good. There are better places in town to get sushi, but their's is excellent and has a good price point. The first time I went, my parents and I got a stir fry, a BBQ, and sushi.
The banchan is awesome, and they refill it freely, and they have awesome and inexpensive dumplings and appetizers. Last time I went, my table got a large soup, and they split it into 3 bowls for no extra charge.
Their beer menu is pretty good, with a few unique Korean and Japanese beers (compared to other restaurants), though it's pretty limited. They also have a decent Soju and Sake selection.
I don't have to say much else about this, except if you want a fun experience, try Seoul Garden. It's the best place to eat in the hotel area (it's on Boardwalk, south of town, near 94 off state street), and I've never been disappointed. It gets overlooked due to its location, but it's worth the drive and the price.
Quality 4.5/5
Value 5/5
