Revisiting The Gogijip (고깃집)

The Gogijip (고깃집), banchan

Lunch at The Gogijip. Have been wanting to come back to try a couple of stuff on their menu that I don't think is available at the other Korean restaurant here.

The Gogijip (고깃집), minari jeon menu

Like their minari jeon. Water dropwort pancake. Picture above's from the menu. Looked like it was packed with the minari.

This was what we got. Looked like it had about a third of the minari that the menu conveyed. There's chilli and strips of carrot fillers. The plant tasted similar to green capsicum. Hmm.....for $28? Never again.

The Gogijip (고깃집), yukhoe bibimbap

The Gogijip might possibly be the only restaurant that has a yukhoe bibimpbap. I think. Are they? The raw beef was marinated with something that was sweet and maybe sesame oil. Not flavourless and it tasted not bad actually on its own.

I topped it up with kimchi and pickled seaweed from the banchan because this bibimbap included vegetables that didn't have much flavour. Which might not have been the best of ideas because I was adding even more texture into an already textured rice salad.

Took a bit of effort to mix. Yukhoe mostly got lost in all those vegetables. Other than the sour from the kimchi and pickled seaweed I added, the only flavour was gochujang. Don't think there was even sesame oil so it's not that great tasting.
