The Lunch Set Challenge<\/h3>\n

When Ken suggested to go to Sura Korean Cuisine Restaurant for their special set lunch, I felt like being challenged to an eating contest. As much as I love the variety of the multiple courses in the lunch set, there is a lot of food. I went to their Richmond location<\/a> and tried their $20 ‘RA’ lunch set. There were 7 of us and we couldn’t even finish 5 lunch sets. But that meal was so delicious that I said I would come\u00a0back. This time at their Robson location in Downtown, we was gonna tackle the $15 ‘SU’ lunch set.<\/p>\n

The Lunch Feast<\/h3>\n

The ‘SU’ set has almost the same number of courses with the ‘RA’ set, but dishes like \u00a0Mackerel Jorim<\/em>, Galbi Jjim<\/em> (braised short rib), and Japchae<\/em> (pan fried glass nooodles) are replaced by other dishes. The taste and quality of the dishes are\u00a0pretty much the same as well. For $15, this is probably the cheapest 10-course meal I’ve ever had, (sorry all-you-can-eat doesn’t count!), and it is fantastic. The only regret was that Japchae<\/em> that I enjoyed from the ‘RA’ lunch set is\u00a0NOT included in the ‘SU’ set. Although\u00a0Galbi Jjim\u00a0<\/em>(braised short rib) is\u00a0missing too, but we are\u00a0happy about the Grilled Atlantic Croaker<\/strong> exclusive only for the ‘SU’ set.<\/p>\n

Overall<\/h3>\n

There is\u00a0a great amount of food in the ‘SU’ lunch set. Not counting the little Banchan plates, the Korean congee bowl, and the dessert rice punch, there are\u00a0about 9 or 10 dishes, showcasing different Korean cooking style from raw, steaming, frying, grilling, to braising. It was quite the challenge for 2 of us, but we did it! But it’s probably the best $15 lunch for the variety and the quality of the dishes. I highly recommend it to whoever wants to experience the awesomeness of Korean cuisine.<\/p>\n
