单选题 Prior to my visit last weekend to Hanguk Palace, our community's first and only Korean restaurant, I had low expectations. How good could a Korean restaurant in Smithdale really be? And the exterior of the establishment, located in the North Cross Shopping Plaza, certainly doesn't impress.
However, my experience changed as soon as I stepped inside. That's when I was greeted warmly by Dae-Ho Lee, the youngest son of the family who immigrated to Smithdale last year and opened the restaurant. Dae-Ho led me to my table, equipped with a traditional Korean charcoal grill in the center. It was recommended that I try the bulgogi, a popular barbecue dish, but I opted for the kimchi stew and a side order of squid fried rice instead. For desert, I was served a complimentary helping of fresh pear. The food was as impressive as the service, and I'm sure I'll be returning to Hanguk Palace soon.
