All main courses on their menu can make a fair meal for 3 adults.<\/p>\n<p>While the joint offers familiar comforts like Korean Army Stew, be sure to also try their signature bibimbap. The difference is in their trademark gochu paste, and many swear by it.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re off work late or raring for a heavier supper, Todamgol can also fill your appetite all the way till 3 am.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_20234\" style=\"width: 916px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20234\" class=\" wp-image-20234\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.getbutler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/top-5-Korean-restaurants-2.jpg?resize=906%2C603&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"906\" height=\"603\" title=\"\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-20234\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(image credit: http:\/\/www.wangdaebak.com.sg\/)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Wang_Dae_Bak\"><\/span><strong>2.
