If you want to try something new while craving Korean food, you can try Cafe Joo, a modern Korean restaurant in Sha Tin New Town Plaza! The menu is designed by local celebrity chef Ken Lau, who incorporates Western cooking techniques into traditional Korean dishes, bringing innovative elements to a variety of authentic Korean snacks!
First, of course, you have to try the fried chicken! Cafe Joo’s “Korean-style crispy spicy fried chicken” uses Italian cooking techniques to prepare three-yellow chicken, frying it to a crispy and thin outer layer while maintaining juicy meat. It is topped with homemade sauce, making it even more flavorful! The “fried Korean-style seaweed rice roll” is deep-fried to a crispy outer layer, providing a rich texture!
Italian pasta is prepared with Korean ingredients, such as “Jeju Island Stir-Fried Octopus with Squid Ink Pasta”. The Jeju Island octopus is stir-fried with Korean soy sauce, resulting in a rich and flavorful dish. Another dish, “Grilled Tiger Shrimp with Kimchi Cream Sauce Pasta”, uses kelp water to make the broth and incorporates Korean kimchi and cream sauce for a slightly spicy flavor. The pasta is then topped with grilled tiger shrimp.
In terms of desserts, there are many choices on the menu, and one of the recommended options is the “Mango Buffet”. It includes cake, butter crisps, and fresh mango, perfect for cooling down in the heat!
