Kalbi beef Banh Mi ($5.99) - short ribs, kimchi, asian bbq sauce

Korean style beef short rib with Asian BBQ sauce, topped with cucumbers, pickled carrots, and cilantro and served on a baguette.  The baquette it was served on was particularly noteworthy as it was soft and fresh.

Five Spice Pork Belly Steamed Bao ($3.49) - braised pork belly, pickled radish
The steamed bao was topped with cucumber, pickled carrots and cilantro which contrasted the fatty, melt-in-your-mouth pork belly nicely. It came with two thick pieces of pork sandwiched between the soft and chewy bun.  My favourite item of all the things we tried.  The taste resembles peking duck flavours.
Kimchi fries ($5.99)
The fries came served in a box topped with Japanese mayo, green onions, kimchi and spicy pork. The tender pulled pork was a welcome addition and the combination of all the flavours was delicious.  It's like eating a fusion poutine with Korean/Japanese influence.  I just wish the box was bigger!
