[Part 2] Eating at Every Michelin Guide Restaurant
Cho Dang Gol (Michelin Bib Gourmand😋)
🍴Food: 7.5/10
- standout: BABY OCTOPUS & BEEF BULGOGI this is perfectly punchy with the spice, rice cakes are so chewy and coated with the sauce that has a perfectly mild heat to it
- i like the tofu and radish kimchi banchan a lot
- order anything with tofu and buckwheat because that’s their speciality
- skip: KOREAN BUCKWHEAT PANCAKE sort of hard to eat, and gets a bit soggy
✨Ambience: 6/10
- very casual setting
- can be crammed at a table with just a divider btw other party
🤵Service: 6/10
- good
- nothing great nor bad to note

Cho Dang Gol, located at 55 W. 35th St. in New York, is celebrated for its vibrant Korean cuisine. Notably, the Baby Octopus & Beef Bulgogi offers a delightful mix of spicy and savory flavors. Guests rave about the tofu and radish kimchi banchan, making it a must-order alongside any dish featuring their specialty tofu. However, the Korean Buckwheat Pancake may not meet everyone's expectations, being somewhat soggy. With an overall food rating of 7.5/10, the casual ambience of the restaurant scores a little lower at 6/10 due to the cramped seating arrangement, which can sometimes impact the dining experience. Service, rated similarly at 6/10, is efficient but offers nothing particularly memorable. Michelin Bib Gourmand designation highlights the restaurant's value and quality, perfect for both seasoned Korean food lovers and those unfamiliar with this cuisine. Don't miss the Soybean Curd Stew and the complimentary Silken Tofu for a complete culinary experience that embodies Korean comfort food.
