三兄弟韓式燒烤
【Foodholic Niko @ Taipei】
"The Three Brothers Korean BBQ" is located near the Xingtian Temple Station, about a 10-minute walk from Exit 3. It's said to be run by Koreans and not only offers Korean barbecue but also many famous Korean dishes. There are often Korean customers dining here. Today, we happened to encounter a group of Koreans eating, so it seems the taste is indeed authentic.
The space inside the restaurant is not very large, so if you plan to dine here, it's advisable to reserve a table in advance. Since we also needed space for the grill, ordering many dishes might lead to a situation where there’s not enough room. Fortunately, the neighboring table was empty, so the staff helped us place our extra dishes there, but this arrangement caused a bit of inconvenience while we were eating.
For the barbecue, we ordered plain pork belly for $380, plain Matsusaka pork for $380, and marinated pork chops for $380. After the staff placed the meat on the grill, we had to cook and cut it ourselves. In terms of flavor, the marinated pork chops were quite good and flavorful, while the pork belly and Matsusaka pork were more ordinary on their own. Dipping them in sauce and wrapping them in lettuce with some garlic made them taste better.
Pork tofu soup for $250
It had a layer of very red oil floating on top, which looked quite spicy, but it actually turned out to be mild in taste. There was a generous amount of meat and tofu; if you come alone, ordering this pot along with a bowl of white rice should be very filling. The flavor was standard.
Pork bibimbap in a stone pot for $250
This dish did not come with the bibimbap hot sauce, which you need to request separately from the staff. I'm not sure if it was because I mixed it too quickly, but I didn’t get much crispy rice, and it tasted quite average; it's optional to order.
Korean cold noodles for $250
This seemed to be my first time trying cold noodles. The staff provided a separate mustard sauce, allowing you to add your desired amount. It tasted very refreshing and would be quite appetizing in the summer; the portion was also large, and it seemed like no matter how much you ate, there was still a lot left.
Spicy stir-fried fried chicken for $400
This dish was probably the highlight of the day. Unlike the imagined crispy skin, this Korean fried chicken was stir-fried in spicy sauce. The heat was mild, and it was stir-fried with onions, giving it a slight sweetness. The chicken was tender and delicious!
Sweet and sour pork for $400
This dish consisted of a whole plate of small crispy pork, accompanied by a bowl of sweet and sour sauce. This is a very common Korean Chinese dish. The sweet and sour sauce was super thick, with ingredients like wood ear mushrooms and cucumber. The crispy pork could be dipped in the sauce or covered with it. The flavor was okay, but not astonishing.
Seafood pancake for $300
The pancake was quite thick and had a softer texture. I personally prefer the thin and crispy type of seafood pancakes, but the taste was still very good. I recommend eating it with sauce, and I would still want to order this dish again.
Korean raw marinated spicy crab for $400
I didn't try this dish, but I heard from friends that it was a bit of a hassle to eat because it came with the shell. It was more like eating the sauce, making it difficult to taste the crab meat.
