Southgate

Philadelphia


If you're not familiar with Korean cuisine this casual spot is a good place to start. Highly recommended is their bibimbap, a rice dish that comes in a heated stone bowl, and their 'KFC' (Korean Fried Chicken). As in all good Korean restaurants there are plenty of fresh side dishes to supplement the main.

The menu has a helpful glossary of Korean food terms.
