Joons Korean Cuisine

Dinner at Joons Korean Cuisine was somewhat of a hassle after the long traffic jam and the unsatisfying customer service that Saturday night.  The restaurant was packed as expected since it was weekend.  The three of us ordered the HoeMoci DakGalBee which is 'Joons Special Table-Top Cooking' of chicken (boneless dark meat), assorted seafood (baby octopus, shrimp and mussel) and assorted vegetable (cabbage, sweet potato and green onion).  The sauce we chose to use was 'The Joons' Original spicy sauce', which of course I found not at all.  Then we add on Mozzarella Cheese and Rice Cake for something extra.

We sat there with hungry stomachs waiting for the dish to cook in front of us, but when the waitress told us our food is ready, we realized our order of Rice Cake was missing.  Long story in short:  They emphasized the point that we did not order Rice Cake.  We told them to add the rice cake back on for us then, but they refused to.  Hence, we were VERY unsatisfied with their customer service.

Overall, Joons Korean Cuisine's table top cooking is pretty unique.  However, the food is just average and the service is certainly below average, so a 5/10 rating is given.

Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu

The original plan was to dine at "Toong" today but surprisingly it closed down.  We ended up back to "Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu" on Yonge and Finch.  This is my second time eating there, and I am in love with their tofu soup ever since I tasted it last time. I might be a little bias towards Korean food because of my love toward spicy food at the moment.  Both times "Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu" were fully packed (maybe it is Sat during dinner hours), however this shows how popular a restaurant is. 'To.live.my.life' read and heard many positive reviews about  "Buk Chang Dong Soon Tofu", and believes it deserve a 9/10.  It is definitely one of the BEST Korean restaurant in Toronto.

Similar to most Korean/Japanese restaurants, appetizers are provided to share among those in each table.

I ordered the Soybean Soon Tofu + Dolsotbab (Mushroom, Beef Mussel), and for hotness, I chose regular spicy (which is the second hottest level).  The tofu is very smooth, and your taste buds feel just right for everything in the bowl.

One of my friend ordered the Combination Soon Tofu + Dolsotbab (Beef, Shrimp, Mussel) with no spiciness (white).  My other friend ordered a Stone Pot Bibimbab, the quantity looks enormous and filing.
