korea invades bingenBy Kathy Watson
You can be forgiven if you haven’t noticed the new Korean restaurant at the east end of Bingen, on the corner of Highway 14 and Oak St. The location was most recently home to an unremarkable teriyaki joint and before that, it was a mini market that sold fishing licenses and dusty ten-year old cans of string beans. Gogi Korean BBQ will make you forget all that. It’s swell Korean food, prepared by a Korean chef who makes his own kimchi. You get a taste of it right off the bat when you are served two bahnchan appetizers: kimchi and a sliced marinated fish cake. The menu offers two pages of Korean standards, from rice and noodle dishes, to bibimbap and stir fries, to traditional BBQ meats you can prepare on radiant grills installed in the middle of each table. Hours are Monday – Saturday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., (closed Sunday) and takeout is available, too. Comments are closed.
