I love my meat!

Yesterday after work I was craving for some Korean BBQ. You can blame TOM approaching. I texted the bf who also got of work around the same time.


He's such a weirdo! Lol! So we went to Gen a fairly new Korean BBQ restaurant that opened near his house. The wait is always long so we always passed until the next time. When we're hungry we can't wait for food lol! I heard so many good things about this place plus my craving so I was determined to try it. After starving for 45 minutes, we were finally seated and the feast began!


All the side dishes and sauce


Short ribs, brisket, and a giant piece of steak!


I loved that you can order veggies!


Tofu soup


Soybean soup


Green tea salt, sesame oil with salt and pepper, ponzu sauce. I thought it was interesting they had green tea salt but it ended up tasting great with the steak!


Semi burnt but still so delicious


Hawaiian steak!


Beef tongue. I didn't know the bf ordered it and when I found out, I was not willing to eat it. He got mad that I was going to make him eat it all by himself so I had one piece. It was a strange texture. Not my favorite at all... It looks like a tongue gahh!


The outskirts? Not sure what exactly it was but the meat was a bit more tough. Pork belly and giant beef belly. The pork belly was good. The beef belly was hard to chew. I was willing to accept the consequences "you will be charged for unfinished food" to avoid eating all the beef belly. Luckily our waiter was super cool and told us to hide the meat so we won't get charged. He added, "be creative." lol! After that we had one more plate of short ribs and cooked the beef belly with it. Then we cut it into pieces and his it under our salads lol! Overall the food was really good! Better than the other OC places. And since it was more modern, I felt it was so much cleaner. That's a biggie in my book! This was good in its own way since there were so many options to choose from. The last place I went to was good in a more traditional way. Korean BBQ twice in one week was satisfying but I think I've had enough neat for a month lol...


Of course I had to get dessert. The bf said, "what is this a nativity scene??" lol!
