Try Every Korean Restaurant in Ermita and Malate (16) (see also TEKREM)
Surveying the Korean eateries, including those serving Korean-Chinese fare, located in the neighborhoods of Ermita and Malate, nearby work and home. Minimum of 1 dish per place. Currently 45 establishments. Though anticipating that most of the places will be mediocre, I look forward to exploring more of my environment.
Jong Lo is a Korean restaurant. Mainstream.
The sundubu jjigae was okay, I guess.
But given the dinginess of the premises, the uninteresting menu, and crappy array of sides, I doubt that I’ll ever go back.
If TEKREM is going to be like this, I should end it before I waste more of my time/energy/opportunity.
