Where's the Best places to drink SOJU with friends?

*in vancouver.

[death_blossom]

I like the asterisk, cuz any Korean will tell you Korea is the best place to drink soju. my korean friends take me to Raku Raku in Burnaby, or e-hwa on Robson.

[caramel604]

i love e-hwa... good place to drink due to the atmosphere and it closes late and the food alright..^_^! and fun memories..:angel2:

[boss_clad]

is it just me, or does soju taste like paul mitchell hair spray?

[insomniacRA]

e-hwa is good!!!
make them yourself, soju+yogurt+sprite, good stuff

[le_dakine]

what's a good korean dish to order to go with soju?

[SlayerS_`BoxeR`]

[achiam]

Soju goes best with Pho Bien or Dac Biet Cuong Cho Gio.

Best post I've read all week.


Anyway, I agree soju tastes like rubbing alcohol diluted with water (Not that I've tried or anything :o ) But its effective to get you buzzed and the taste becomes enhanced when you eat it with fried meat. ie: ribs.

[RFlush]

Ohh Soju is so good! And it's so cheap here in Korea. I never really knew about Soju when I was in van, how much is it for a bottle? Here it is like $1usd at the market, $2 at the bar and $4 at the clubs. So cheap! Best to eat with it is like spicey food.

[Vansterdam]

i love drinking soju with spicy stuff ^^

[SpuGen]

Aloe Soju at E-hwa is the best. It goes down like water and before you know it, you'll be on your own 2nd pitcher. It doesn't beat that small Soju wine thinger though.. that'll somehow fuck you up.

I miss Mi-ok.. best waitress ever! Too bad my friend decided to get it on with her and not call back. I miss going there haha

[ekim]

The best soju cocktails that I've had here would be at Raku Raku, they have pretty good food too at decent prices. E-hwa has a big selection of cocktail sojus and even has a list of dishes that are good for drinking with. I've also heard good things about Gochu Sarang in coquitlam, So Moon Nan Jip in Surrey and Ap Gu Jung on Robson.

A natural pairing for soju is considered to be sam gyup sal (pork belly). But anything spicy or meaty is good.

[moxies]

You gotta go downtown for soju drinks man, that's where it is.

ap gu jung (My friends father owns it)
jang mo jib ( MY FAVORITE PLACE)
e-hwa (btw.. for some reason the korean girls are so easy there... but whatever)

from what i gather, she seems hesitant to date anyone in town? or maybe she's damn picky like most korean gals are. how did your friend do it?

isnt she the one that doesnt understand a word of english lol

[kitsune]

I prefer E-hwa Ju Mak in Robson the best.
The best food to go with it is the BoSsam (Sorry I don't know any english names for it, it's like cooked pork with spicy kimchi like veggies wrapped with cabbage), Yangyum chicken (the fried chicken with spicy sauce), or the gamja tang (potato and beef stew/soup)
But keep in mind that this is all imo. :D
Raku raku is okay, it's in Burnaby just a little past metrotown.
I didn't go there much so I don't remember. Soju was okay though.

Be aware of Soju; it doesn't give you a hit right away, but after a while it gets you slammed.
People I know have drank and drank claiming that they can hold their liquor and that soju isn't that strong, and then getting shitfaced. ^^;;

I dunno... the skinny hot one. haha

They changed E-hwa's menu recently. I still don't see Bulgogi. I guess I could just order it and they should have it, but if I wanna actually eat I'll go to Raku Raku. Drinking and getting numbers..E-Hwa.

Is MOONLIGHT PREMIUM SHOCHU the same as soju? the label says its from vietnam. Tried it for the first time at Shota Lounge. that stuff goes great with yam tempura. haha

Is Shota Lounge any good? Is it another Ebisu?

It's owned by my friend's ex. It looks nice inside and its similar to Ebisu

[blazn1]

yeah. i went there with my wife and some friends on friday. This time for dinner. For a vancouver lounge, its pretty good. Completely different vibe from the day time restaurant. More relaxed than Ebisu. I was also surprised of the quality of the food considering the cheap prices. We only ordered from the $5 tapas menu. Shrimp dumplings were SO tender. Comes with 5 small pieces instead of 4 giant hard pieces. Their ebi mayo was also killer. They make their own mayo sauce. The batter is different from guu and kingyo, its more like coconut shrimp. not greasy at all either. Tuna takaki was a bit overcooked, but salmon takaki is good. I totally recommend this place whether for drinks or dinner.

sorry, kinda got a bit off topic :P

Or Ebisu.

Post here if you guys wanna meetup or soemthing

[KoreanHistoryCH]

there must be a better place than e-hwa or raku raku?

[willystyle]

so guys, any places other then e-hwa and raku raku thats good for drinking and opens late?

[kitsune]

I forget the name of the place,
but there's a place behind 7-11 where all the korean restaurants are..

[willystyle]

N. Road and Lougheed?

[kitsune]

^
Oops, that was vague..
In downtown on Robson, by the public market, it's near Ehwa.

Also in Coquitlam, there's a place on North Road across from KFC.. I don't know the English name sorry!

[maxell]

you are thinking about Chung-Dam-An(sp)

[RFlush]

Soju meet :)

hahaha i totally know what you mean. i thought i was superman for drinking so many shots of soju..then the next second i was fucking wasted..hahahah good times

[KoreanHistoryCH]

red dragon is the killer =)

[geeknerd]

You mean Suk Gi Shi Dae beside KFC and SUBWAY?
Its Sam Gyup Sal (pork belly) dedicated restaurtant. the best meat food to have with soju.

When drinking with friends, we always have bu dae jji gae, or kimchi jjigae, etc some kind of broth to have. Shot of soju + spoon of broth after is best combo IMO.

[SpuGen]

Okay. So E-Hwa has long since stopped serving alcohol after 12:30 (pretty much)
Norboo has their limit at 1.

Where's the next best place?
I know theres more just further down on Robson, but my friends are too pussy to check it out, and I'd rather not waste my time going down there only to be shot down.

RakuRaku is good, but parking sucks, and the location is ehh.
Anybody try any of the places in Richmond?
or ARE there any places in Richmond?

Rakuraku in Coquitlam was AWESOME. Tons of Korean girls, but way too far to make it a usual place, or even a drinking place since it's a bit of a drive.

Recommend a place in Downtown/Richmond?
Or even Coquitlam, just for the girls.

edit:
Mi-ok got married to some white guy or something who's old as fuck.
But there's a girl whos "cute" who's (KBC?)

What the fuck happened to this place.

[willystyle]

there's a raku raku in coquitlam? i thought there's only one in bby.

u should check out chungdam-an on robson beside 7/11.. it's got better girls and the atmosphere is better than e-hwa..

Is that the place with the tinted out windows or always crazy dark from the outside?

Looks like Ewha got busted too many times now and are abiding to their alcohol license rules now lol.

[SpuGen]

Hmm.
