Chicago: Cafe Corea
I swear, before I started this blog, the only restaurant I would eat at in Hyde Park was Harold's. Maybe it's because it's midterm/brief assignment season and my friends and I don't have as much time as we'd like to venture out. Now that I've turned in my brief, I promise to go out and eat more exciting things at more exciting places.
But in the meantime, a few of my friends and I got together for dinner tonight at Cafe Corea:
I ordered the soondubu jjigae (soft tofu soup) because that's the only thing my Korean foodie roommate can't make at home:
The food is decent. Can't complain too much. The owners are kind and prices are fair. But living with my roommate has shown me how easy and cheap a lot of those pricey Korean dishes are to make. I've been spoiled by Korean home cooking, so restaurant fare just doesn't seem quite as impressive as it used to.
