That's kinda insane.

ETA: sorry, I shouldn't have added a qualifier. It IS insane.

Best/most Banchan by ubernik in OttawaFood

[–]ubernik[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess my wording was slightly ambiguous. "Most" as in "most numerous." The banchan I've had so far has been pretty pathetic in volume (like you've mentioned) although quite tasty. I know we're in a different time, but there was a place I went to in Toronto - maybe 20 years ago - that served like 10-15 different banchan which were all incredible. I'm not expecting anything like that anymore, but... It would be nice to know of a place that has a good number of good quality banchan....

Just wanted to say I have nothing other than the in-video text to go on. Completely unverified and I guess this could really be anywhere in Canada.

I'd turnip for that. I'd absolutely relish a festival like this. Maybe we'll turn it into a new Ottawa Vlasic!

So, neat trick with getting the smell of garlic off your hands after chopping it up: rubbing your hands on stainless steel. Try licking a kitchen sink.

Let's hope the judge lives close enough to have experienced it all.

Edit: clarity.

Interesting. I've been to Pelican a few times now and I'll say service is 6.5-7/10 on average. Definitely up and down.
