"You will not have a leisurely meal here, but you’ll certainly have a good one. At this hole-in-the-wall restaurant near the University of Minnesota’s East Bank campus, service is direct, kind, and almost impossibly efficient — even with every table at full capacity, there’s rarely a wait longer than ten minutes before you’re seated, menu and water in hand, banchan landing on the table the moment you’ve finished ordering. Take one look at the other tables and you’ll see that the lunch combos are the way to go here: any grilled meat along with a silken tofu stew, which arrives with a raw egg ready to be cracked into the searingly hot bowl of kimchi jjigae, still bubbling as it lands on the table, alongside plenty of white rice to sop up the savory broth." - Julie Zhou
