Beef Bulgogi With Rice

Chef: Sun Chaewon Lee ~ KaffeineGR - Restaurant & Bar

I chose this recipe because I wanted to spread more Korean food throughout West Michigan. Featuring a sliced beef that is marinated in BBQ sauce the Korean way, it is a perfect bite of Korean authenticity and has a sweet and savory flavor profile.

There are a lot of vegetables, spices, soy sauce and flavor that come together in this recipe. Topped with a fried egg, this dish is something everyone can enjoy.

This dish offers an authentic korean flavor profile.
