Harden's survey result
Summary
This “small and sometimes crowded” Korean in Kentish Town is an excellent option for “standard dishes like bibimbap” in North London – not a strong part of town for Korean food. The prices are “very reasonable”, and although it is geared around takeaway it can accommodate a dozen diners at a time.
Summary
“A tiny, smart, very small Korean in Kentish Town which seems to get better as it goes along”. “Takeaway is maybe the main business, but there are a few tables with a dozen covers by the kitchen” – “service is fast and you’re in for some very reliable Korean staples (bibimbap is a favourite and kids like Yangnyeom fried chicken”). “Some people rave about New Malden for Korean cuisine, but in my experience this is a cut above”.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
