\nLast month’s #6<\/p>\nPhoto from @deliciouslyjelii<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n \nGanso-Shabuway is an international franchise from California that offers Japanese style hot pot<\/strong>. They serve all-natural grass fed beef, fresh produce and other hot pot toppings. It\u2019s for<\/strong> people who are looking for a healthier dining option. It\u2019s not for<\/strong> sushi lovers. We recommend<\/strong> the Set B (for 2) with Spicy Miso broth, Wagyu beef set, and their Seafood Deluxe Set. We\u2019ve been reading great reviews about their dipping sauces, so make sure to try those as well. Our insider tip<\/strong> is every order of single or sharing shabu-shabu set comes with unlimited rice, soup refills and dipping sauces.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\nLast month’s #2<\/p>\nPhoto from @jazzbaldo<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n \nKko Kko is a modern Korean chicken house<\/strong> that uses traditional and contemporary recipes that came from Grace Lee and her mom. Their menu is divided into three main categories \u2013 Korean Fried Chicken, Korean Street Food, and Dosirak (Korean lunch box) \u2013 each narrating a story about the dining setting and customs of Korea. It’s for<\/strong> foodies looking for new and unique Korean dishes. It’s not<\/strong> for people looking for grilled Korean BBQ. We recommend<\/strong> the Chicken Cheese Fondue, Snow Chicken Cheese, and Galbi Jim Dosirak. Our insider tip<\/strong> is the place is quite small and may get full quickly on peak hours, so make sure to book a table ahead of time. Fun Fact: <\/strong>Kko Kko was named after the sound that a chicken makes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
