Bibimbap

Bibimbap is a restaurant located in a small side street amongst a group of shops just off Glynburn Road. I’ve always been aware of it’s existence since I ate at the pizza place next door a few months ago. It just so happened that I was in the area and looking for a new lunch…

Bim’s Bar

Bim’s Bar is a new take away store located at the former Sushi Crane site. Based close to the corner of King William and Pirie Streets, this store extends the previous Japanese offerings to include Korean cuisine as well. The place is tiny and can barely fit all the standing customers during the lunch hour…

The decor is modern yet basic, with the…

Gochuzang

You don’t see many Korean stores in food courts, particularly in the heart of the CBD. Gochuzang bucks this trend by providing authentic cuisine in the Renaissance Arcade food court. The store offers 15 dishes and half a dozen vegetarian options which are variations of the available dishes. Today, I ordered the Sizzling Stone Beef Bibimbap….

Koba Korean BBQ

The inside of Koba is certainly a contrast to what you see on the outside. The owners have done a great job renovating the interior to what could be described as traditional with a contemporary feel about it. The light fittings, the seating areas, the built-in cooking stoves make it traditional while see through kitchen…
