    This will be a first for LTH North. We're dining at a spot that hasn't been officially reviewed yet on LTH. However, it does have the endorsement of Cathy2 who dined there a few weeks ago. Please join us.

    I hope to attend but it's too soon to know if I'll be able to for sure.

    Thanks again, for organizing.

    Hi,

    On their lunch menu, most everything is about $10. The awning advises this is a Korean and Japanese BBQ restaurant.

    We ordered from the lunch menu Dolsot Bibim Bop, Pork Tonkatsu and Bulgogi. From the dinner menu their kimchi dumplings. The Dolsot Bibim Bop had a nice crusty bottom from the hot stone vessel. The array of panchan served at lunch was limited to four items, though they were very generous and offered refills.

    They have gas BBQ grills available, though nobody at lunch was using them.

    I'll post pictures whenever I get around to it.

    Regards,
    Cathy2

    Dang. I must bow out. I really want to go, but I think my cold and I should keep each other company at home. I hope someone will post some pictures!

    Unfortunately, I'm not feeling well and will be at my doctor's office during this lunch. Sorry, to miss it.

    Sorry for the last-minute notice, but I just now managed to crawl to the phone and computer to say that I woke up this morning feeling way under the weather. Left a message on Cathy's cell that I'm not going to make it today, but thought I'd better post here too before crawling back to bed. Really sorry to miss it....

    Even though we had a few last minute cancellations, LTH North Lunch Group prevailed! Good food and company. Keeping up with LTH North tradition, no food item was left behind.

    I enjoyed meeting the Mystery Guest. We even commissioned her to take the official LTH North Lunch Group photos with her iPhone. Hopefully, she'll post them shortly so the mystery can be solved.

    Wooil is worthy of it's own official LTH review. If nobody else wants to take a stab at it, I'll kick it off later.

    A first for LTH North - we even decided on the next destination before we left today. Thanks Will! Details will be posted soon.
