One of the recommended Korean Restaurants for East Aucklanders is Sa Rang Bang. Located next to Dennys, my asian friends all love this place, with their genuinely Korean staff and food. You can choose to sit on cushions in a traditional way, or you can sit on the wooden booths. Sharing the food is recommended, by getting a whole collection of different dishes and chowing down. Try the chicken bulgogi with an array of side dishes - so flipping delicious!
It was hard for me to order because the English barrier was rather large, but thankfully, I went with Koreans who could explain what everything was. I think it's best to ask the staff what the most popular dish is and go with that if your Korean is not good. Otherwise, take your secret weapon: someone who knows Korean food! read more
