 Metroactive Dining Palace BBQ Buffet
Because a Korean host must lay out enough dishes to cover the board, we--being our own hosts--layered our expanse of polished granite with 15 varieties of kimchee, including pickled mung bean, raw pickled blue crab, chile octopus, cabbage, Korean leek, crunchy muu (Korean radish), raw garlic and fresh chile--a stupefying array of textures and flavors.
A wonderful aroma of caramelized soy sauce and meat made us giddy with anticipation as we chugged on our 650-milliliter Cash Beer ($5), a mellow and sweet Korean brew.
Although favorites such as stone pot kimchee soup and hot fish didn't grace this buffet, and the spices were much mellowed to accommodate everyone, the abundance of meticulously presented food and the graceful setting more than compensated for any shortcomings.
