What does the Cheongyang chili bacon truffle cream pasta taste like?
The first dish we tried was the Cheongyang chili bacon truffle cream pasta, said to be Dana Dongseong-ro Main Branch's signature favorite!
✔️ A super thick, rich truffle cream, paired with Cheongyang chili (a spicy Korean green chili) that kicks in just when it might get heavy 🔥
Dunking the bread deep into the sauce was delicious, and the bacon you hit now and then was a treat. The sauce getting richer and thicker as you eat is art ✨
✔️ If you can't decide on a pasta at Dana Dongseong-ro Main Branch, I strongly recommend this one 👍🏻
Spicy bacon shrimp pilaf
Next up was the spicy bacon shrimp pilaf. Spicy, plump whole shrimp sit on top, and the savory depth is superb 🦐
The shrimp are so plump that every bite fills your mouth, and the texture and flavor are no joke 🔥
The zero cola and pickles I had in between were great for cleaning up my palate ✨
Beef flap steak and honey truffle french fries
The last dish was the flap steak. You can choose the side, and I picked honey truffle french fries!
I happily dipped the tender flap steak in all kinds of sauces. ✔️ The trio of wasabi / salt / whole-grain mustard was so good ✌🏻
I also dipped it in the steak sauce that came with it! -> The steak itself is tender and good quality, so it was delicious with whatever sauce I used 🫶🏻
Between the potato mousse and the honey truffle french fries, the portions are huge, and it felt like great value.
