Modern Korean food at Chatswood cinemas unappealing

You would only patronise this place if you are rushing to catch a movie and nearby eateries are packed.

Huge seafood pancake that has more egg than batter turned out to be soft instead of crispy. In anticipation of lots of seafood according to the description on the menu, the dish that arrived wasn't impressive. The mussels (usually left out in Korean pancake) didn't taste fresh.

Almost every dish has egg in it - fried, poached or boiled. The above picture shows double boiled ginseng chicken with chestnut rice balls and red dates in the soup. More appropriately described as salty than tasty.

Cold potato noodles with braised beef, egg and radish. Frozen soup stock keeps the noodle cool throughout the meal.
The appetizers are passable, especially the pumpkin soup (far left in the picture). Surprise!

Conclusion :
Food : average
Pricey compared to similar restaurants
Service : mediocre
