東輝韓食館
【Donghui Korean Cuisine】Previously, I noticed that during lunchtime, the restaurant was always packed and you had to wait a long time for a table. So, I decided to make a reservation in advance to give it a try! The décor of this Korean restaurant is very simple, resembling an old establishment that has been around for decades, and they have everything from barbecue to soup.
The signature dishes in the restaurant include budget-friendly barbecue and Korean BBQ, and the staff will assist with grilling, so there's no worry about burning it yourself.
The restaurant provides free tea and seaweed soup (though we ordered additional soups), and there is a wide variety of dishes available, with the small dishes available for refill.
【Meal Reviews】
▶️ Korean BBQ 1.5/5
The pork belly has a noticeable unpleasant smell; Taiwanese pork shouldn't smell like this. I'm not sure if it was a quality issue with the pork that day or other factors, but overall, I had a very poor impression.
The marbled pork performed slightly better, but the overall meat quality was rather average and didn't impress me.
On the plus side, there is dedicated table-side service for grilling, so you can just sit back and enjoy watching the grilling without any effort on your part. 😌
▶️ Seafood Tofu Soup 4.5/5
The saltiness and spiciness are both moderate, and the flavors of the seafood and tofu are rich, perfectly embodying the essence of Korean soup, making it great with rice.
▶️ Pork and Potato Soup 3/5
It performed adequately, with decent flavor.
▶️ Seafood Pancake 5/5 👍👍
This was the most impressive dish! I initially thought it would be like the usual flat seafood pancakes, but when it arrived at the table, it was an extravagant version, very special in presentation, with an astonishing size and a strong visual impact.
Moreover, it was perfectly crispy, had rich layers of texture, and although it was a bit oily, it was incredibly satisfying. It completely overturned my stereotype of Korean seafood pancakes. I highly recommend this dish!
▶️ Spicy Stir-Fried Rice Cakes 3.5/5
The sauce is rich and feels very authentic, and the rice cakes are of moderate softness, not too chewy.
【Dining Recommendations】
Must-Order:
- Seafood Pancake 👍
- Seafood Tofu Soup
- Spicy Stir-Fried Rice Cakes
Can Skip:
- Korean BBQ (unless the quality of the meat improves)
Next time, I would like to try the budget-friendly BBQ, as I saw other tables ordering it and it looked good.
