@mattconnect: Popular modern Korean Cuisine at Calong, opened by Joo Young Won (former head chef at Michelin starred Galvin at Windows) features a rotating menu of contemporary Korean dishes. Everything we tried: Kimchi Fritters with chilli £7 Beetroot, Ricotta, Fig and ssamjang £15 Fried Chicken, sweet chilli and peanut £14 Pork jeyuk, braised pepper, perilla £27 star Mushroom, aubergine and yolk butter sot bap £12 The kimchi Fritters were so crispy with that signature flavour and enhanced further by the chilli sauce. I loved the balance of flavours in the beetroot Ricotta salad especially the sweetness in the fig. The fried chicken was succulent though I thought it could be crispier and have a more exciting sauce pairing. The pork jeyuk was juicy with a slight kick from the sauce, and paired well with the mushroom rice. There is also a dessert menu but we were already quite full. Make sure to reserve your table as Calong is often fully booked! 📍 Calong, 35 Stoke Newington Church St, London N16 0NX #calong #koreanrestaurant #londonfoodguide #londonfoodie #londonrestaurants
