Live Octopus > Cold Buckwheat Noodle > Hotpot Bibimbap
The food are cooked on the stop in front of you, the place i would say is clean for a market if you would compare. I am not a fan of bibimbap cause the smell of the veggies is legit overwhelming, but i decided to give this a try cause it looks so good. & guess what it taste good too, you can't really smell the greenest of the veggie cause of the sauce they use to mix it with the bibimbap. I would say this is the best i have ever eaten.
(PS: for those of you who are wondering how a Live Octopus taste like, it's chewy and be ready to show off your chopstick skills)
