As my trip to LA continues, there was one particular popular cuisine in Southern California, that I was keen to try and that was Korean.
There are many eateries like Korean BBQ Grill here, but not as many that offer veggie options, but I was on a look out for one and I was in luck.
I came across bibigo with a slogan Fresh Korean Kitchen and 'fresh' it indeed was.
I was drawn to bibigo as there was a variety of fresh veggie ingredients on display. Although there was not a particular veggie dish on the menu, the helpful server prepared a tantalizing Korean Tofu Salad Bowl.
For my perfect veggie Korean Tofu Salad Bowl I selected:
- Brown rice as the base layer
- Layer of green salad leaves
- Sauteed Broccoli
- Shredded Carrots, pickles and jalapeno
- Crispy Tofu cubes
- Hot Chilli and Yellow Curry sauce as dressing
- Fried onion, sesame seeds and sesame oil as toppings
This was an absolutely delightful and tasty meal. I was pleasantly surprised with my first experience with Korean based dish and it made a nice change to have something so healthy and satisfying at the same time!
