THE TASTE NW

We visited The Taste NW and "got our food on." My evening ended up having a Korean flavor to it, literally, and that was an absolute delight.



My appetizer was a Korean Cheese Dog from Puffle Up. I had the OG Cheese Dog which is a deep fried mozzarella cheese "dog" coated with sugar, ketchup, and mustard. The sweet of the sugar matches so well with the acidity of the mustard and ketchup. This is essentially a heart attack on a stick, but so worth it.



My entrĂ©e was an excellent Bulgogi Bowl from Seoul Bowl. The Korean-barbecued beef and rice were topped with sweet Asian salad, kimchi, and sweet chili sauce on top. There were other toppings available, but this was a good mix—once again balancing sweet with acidic, as well as spicy heat with cool umami.

 
Sampled by at least one of us during our evening: 
  • Korean Cheese Dogs.
  • Korean Bulgogi Bowl.
  • Pork Bao.
  • Po Boy Sandwich and Fries.
  • Pineapple Dole Whip.
  • Critical Hit "Bugbear" Soda.
  • Tanghulu Sugar-Glazed Fruit Kabobs.
