Fluffy and chewy, it really got my appetite going. Dipped deep in olive oil, nom nom. ![Focaccia dipped in olive oil](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-16-1bfmm-900.webp) ![Close-up of focaccia bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-17-qf5jq-900.webp) ## What does Burnish Resto's napa cabbage salad taste like? The first dish to arrive was the napa cabbage salad. It came out with Burnish's own house-made anchovy sauce and cheese sprinkled over grilled napa cabbage. ![Napa cabbage salad topped with anchovy sauce and cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-18-1ak4m-900.webp) The sweetness of the warm grilled napa cabbage, the savory depth of the anchovy sauce, and the smoky flavor of the bacon all came together for a taste that was way more upscale than expected. It's on a totally different level from an ordinary salad, so I really recommend trying it if you visit. ![A bite of napa cabbage salad topped with bacon](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-19-1pu2s-900.webp) ## How is the summer-only cold sweet shrimp pasta? After the salad got our appetites going, the main event arrived — the cold sweet shrimp pasta. The visual alone was Instagram-perfect. ![Cold pasta plated with sweet shrimp and avocado](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-20-1bgz5-900.webp) - Main ingredients: cold capellini noodles, fresh sweet shrimp, creamy avocado, grilled lemon, dill (ANETHUM), seaweed (GELIDIUM AMANSII) I squeezed a little juice from the grilled lemon and mixed it in — the thin capellini strands were coated in a refreshing oil sauce, making it truly cool and clean-tasting. ![Cold capellini pasta mixed with lemon juice](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-21-1lsdt-900.webp) ![Fork twirling cold sweet shrimp pasta noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-22-17iux-642.webp) The chewy, sweet shrimp, the smooth avocado, and the fragrant dill came together fantastically in every bite. Knowing it's only available in summer made it feel even more special. ### Adding extra bread for 2.0 ![A plate of extra ordered bread](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-23-pyfwh-900.webp) *Extra bread* It was so good we ordered extra bread and ate more. Bread-lover instincts, I guess? But honestly, there wasn't a single thing that wasn't delicious. ![The table at Burnish Resto after finishing the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta-24-14lsw-900.webp) If you're looking for a restaurant in Jung-gu, Daegu that nails taste, atmosphere, and friendliness all at once, I recommend Burnish Resto :) ## Where it is - Burnish Resto (버니쉬레스토) - 42 Gukchaebosang-ro 150-gil, 1st floor, Jung-gu, Daegu, South Korea - 대구광역시 중구 국채보상로150길 42 1층 - 35.8666259, 128.610959 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B2%84%EB%8B%88%EC%89%AC%EB%A0%88%EC%8A%A4%ED%86%A0/@35.8666259,128.610959,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@weekday-seat-log/burnish-resto-daegu-cold-shrimp-pasta/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
