korean 007

So my friend B introduced me to this secret hideout Korean restaurant which is located beneath a Korean supermarket. Basically there's no sign clearly indicating that it's a place to dine, only recommended by word of mouth. First you tell the cashier lady the secret codes--either Bi Bim Bap or Spicy Pork--so that she knows you're a member. Note: utter in a low voice. Next, pay 3.50 quid. After that walk straight across the supermarket and head downstairs to the secret hideout. The staircases are subtly hidden amongst piled instant noodle boxes--ignore. In the basement you are surrounded by walls of video tapes and VCRs, the centre of the room sits two tables and a few chairs. With that kind of money the food is not at all absymal; in fact it comes in yummy, gigantic portions and spicy as well! Having had their kimchi and miso soup, I've showed up three times in two weeks.
