Nor Boo Korean Restaurant Review
on August 24, 2011 in Downtown, Korean
We visited Nor Boo Korean restaurant on two separate occasions, each a couple of months apart, so I thought it was time to post about our experiences.

These were often the sights and sounds of our daily dining adventures. Three years later, and I will occasionally have the urge [...]

It is technically a Japanese style restaurant, but also serves a variety of Korean dishes such as bibimbap, hae-dup bap and kimchi.
