Sarah Kim has owned and run the restaurant Seoul Cuisine for 18 years.
In an unassuming strip mall, Kim’s restaurant serves both Korean classics like galbi (grilled beef short rib) and dumplings while also adding in some Vietnamese dishes. She has a plentiful selection of pho — the iconic Vietnamese noodle soup filled with your choice of meat and lots of lime, basil and bean sprouts.
As the weather turned cold and rainy over the past few weeks and the gray stretched over the city like a wet blanket (seasonal depression, anyone?) I found myself in the cozy little restaurant out near the mall.
Kim keeps the restaurant neat and tidy and was successfully taking orders and cooking the food all by herself.
I wonder what the statistical odds of a restaurant reporter and a health inspector showing up to a restaurant on the same day are. Well, Oct. 29, that mathematical likelihood occurred.
