Husband and I made it over last Sunday and loved it.  Couldn't get over how developed that part of town is!    Definitely think this is the sharpest, most interesting place in that area...\n\nInside, they've done a  nice job of tricking up the interior to make it feel less strip mall.  I loved the atmosphere although the booths weren't very comfortable nor were they sound buffered - we could hear every word of the conversations around us...\n\nI'd made a short list of items (okay, it was too long) that I wanted to make sure we tried...\n\nWe started with the mandu - needed some seasoning but that's what dippping sauce is for -- the filling and portion size was generous.  I'm a sucker for dumplings and love how every culture has one - and I love em all.  \n\nWe had the buckwheat noodle soup - it will be coming off the menu as soon as temperatures come down and I've been telling my husband about this dish from EJo... I was thrilled to see it on Soyo's menu.  I had him taste it before adding the vinegar/mustard - he pronounced it flat...I swirled in the magic ingredients and this time his eyes sparkled - it's his kind of dish --  light, bright, surprising, complex but simple.  I loved their version.\n\nWe had their KFC (actually the spicy garlic wings) - these were sticky, ooey, gooey delicious - and I normally am not a wing fan...but I thought these were yummy.\n\nWe also tried their rice wine - it comes in a bowl with a ladle...and it's addictive.  Light alcohol content, cold, sweet, a little sparkly, think unfiltered sake spritzer or new wine.  Delicious.  (And enough for two to share...or not)\n\nI didn't realize how wonderful Hite beer is until Sunday either -- it's got a touch of sweetness-- perfect for spicy Korean food.  I think Hite is probably my favorite beer right now...\n\nWe also tried their kimchee pancake.  Great, but could have been crispier, downright soggy in the middle...but we ate it all with relish.  Sort of hard to complain about when you've pretty much licked the plate clean.\n\nAll in all, it was a great first experience...we probably should have tried their bulgogi, but we'll do that the next time - because we will definitely go back.
