What did you eat at the restaurant?
I ate bulgogi and had water, but I am part Korean, and I grew up in a predominately Korean area so I was expecting something more traditional. This restaurant was like Korean-American fusion. They had bulogogi sliders... need I say more, lol?
Plus they did not serve banchan, so for bulgogi with rice and no banchan it was very expensive. Also, I think they put some sort of cheese on my meat.
My mom is very old fashioned, she likes food the way she has always had it, and she was mortified when I told her my experience. She judges a Korean restaurant by how much banchan is served... since this place served none she would have straight up walked out.
All that being said, it's not the server's fault it turned out to not be my kind of restaurant, and she was pleasant enough.
love doenjang, bibimbap, and kimchi. never had banchan to my recollection. make sure you write about your experience on trip advisor. sounds like you would know what is good, so others dont make the same mistake!

Very popular with Asian restaurants in general; after spending over 6 years living in Japan, you cannot even imagine my reaction when I saw some of the sushi combinations on the menus in Japanese restaurants. Cream cheese does not belong in sushi. I miss real Japanese food; not the stuff they have in Japanese restaurants here (and don't even get me started on that horrible ginger salad dressing...I don't even think I ever saw that in a grocery store in Japan).

never go to fusion korea restaurant, waste of money. Best places are the ones run by older korean people going with traditional korean food. Best part about becoming the best or frequent customer at those places is that they will always give you extra entree for free 
anyway, back to topic. I like capital one and their second look thing, make sure that merchants aren't screwing you over. Like this Hulu subscription, i went with no ad sub which cost more, capital one caught it and sent me an email.

I went out to eat the other day at some hipster, overpriced fusion restaurant... spent a lot for a small amount for one person, but still felt obligated to leave a nice tip, which I left on my Venture card.
