About PALPAL

PALPAL is a modern and casual Korean-Chinese restaurant that offers a unique dining experience. The menu features a variety of dishes, including mala beef tartare, egg/anchovy fried rice, and the popular lunch spicy seafood noodle soup.

The mala beef tartare is a standout dish, with the familiar flavors of a yookhwe (Korean beef tartare) combined with a numbing spicy sensation on the tongue. Texturally, it is a great dish that delivers exceptional flavor.

The lunch spicy seafood noodle soup is a modern take on the classic jjambbong. It is a generous serving of seafood, including clams, mussels, shrimp, and squid, along with thinly-sliced, torched pieces of pork belly. The noodles are bouncy, the broth has a satisfying heat, and the seared edges of the pork slices add a delightful touch.

Other menu items, such as the spicy galbi and the baby octopus with pork belly, are also well-received. While the portion sizes may be smaller than typical Korean restaurants, the quality and flavors make up for it.

The restaurant has a modern and casual atmosphere, and it can get quite busy, so it's recommended to make a reservation. The drinks menu offers a range of options, including cocktails, Korean alcohols, beers, and soft drinks.

Overall, PALPAL is a unique and enjoyable dining experience, offering a modern take on Korean-Chinese cuisine that is worth a visit.
