    Yukgejang - spicy beef and bean noodles w egg. Delish, the best in in Zurich. Served w a side of kim chi "banchan" and Korean white rice.
    May C.

    Five well earned stars to an authentic and delish Korean grocery/eat in/takeaway all in one store, owned by a Korean couple that also speaks Mandarin Chinese fluently. I'd actually debated giving it four stars, dropping a star due to its location/accessibility. But after further analysis of ways to get here, I have reconsidered. If one plans ahead, they can easily take the S6 train (it runs like 2x an hour going to Baden from Zurich) stopping in Seebach which drops you off 1-2 minute walk from this place. Or walk 10 minutes from Bahnhof Oerlikon and call it a way to keep fit after eating a meal here. (I write about possible ways to get there below) The taste of the food and service are thumbs up. And even better, the prices are a bit lower than Zurich average of what you find in this mom and pop shop. For example, my Yukgejang (spicy beef in hot oil and vegetables/tofu) was about CHF 19, and comparing this to Yumihana selling in high 20s (a similar type of Korean food store)... since I boycott Yumihana for years since they pulled their discriminatory poor treatment on me and for price gouging. The difference is Mi Mi Sa is undoubtedly my top choice: the people here at Mi Mi Sa gives great service, are very friendly and accommodating, treated me well (unlike Yumihana - which treats some Asian (not from their country) looking customers inferior behind your back), are very fair in pricing and... it's really delish! Yeah, I pinch myself, because Toto, I've got a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore... this is really in Zurich! When you order anything, like Yukgejang, it will come with a complimentary small "banchan" side (traditional Korean small plate of starter, usually kim chi). This is what a real Korean restaurant will do, but the few ones I've been here in Zurich to don't ever do this to save cost - but Mi Mi Sa actually does it. Their kim chi is home made and you can also buy it in bulk here (see my photos). So if you come with a party of 3, you get three small plates of "banchan". The lady was so nice she refilled my banchan once as I ate my delish kim chi quickly. :D They serve their food with proper Korean utensils - the flat stainless steel chopsticks and spoon, both from Korea, and adds a fine touch to a "homey", authentic eat in experience. Your food is made fresh as you can hear the kitchen chopping away after you've ordered your meal. One small caveat, since it's a small grocery store with a very small eat in area (there are four tables, 1 of which accommodates a party of 4, and 3 other tables for 2 people), I don't think they have public toilets, not sure, never asked. But you don't go there to hang out and sit for hours, anyway. Given it's in the Bahnhof Oerlikon area, I'm sure you can find somewhere to go easily within a close vicinity. Variation: Excellent. Very authentic offering. They have Korean pancake, the staples (Bulgogi, Kalbi beef ribs, bi bim bab, and even the rare to find in Zurich Yukgejang - which they make so well here)... for a small mom and pop store here, this is applauded!!! Location: Okay ish. Wish it was closer to me but still manageable esp thanks to trains! Option 1: Tram 14 to Felsenrainstrasse (6 minutes away from Berninaplatz, 1 min from Bahnhof Oerlikon Ost). WALK 2 minutes. Option 2: S6 to Seebach train stop. S6 Stadelhofen to Seebach ride: only 14 min. WALK 1 minute. Option 3: Any "S" train to Bahnhof Oerlikon, WALK 10 minutes. There are probably many ways but I chose to exit at Track 8, pass the Asian Grocery store and continue walking on Schaffhauserstrasse for most of the walk. Service: Excellent. The couple are so accommodating and kind. Anyone who asks to re-fill my kim chi banchan once (I didn't abuse it) here in Zurich rates high in my book. But they are also the only place that offers complimentary tiny dishes of banchan like they do at real Korean restaurants. Pricing: Very competitive, lower than Zurich average. Even the grocery, for example, the vegetarian leek dumplings they sell are from Korea (great quality), and they charge CHF 9 (the meat ones cost more). At the Chinese stores here in Zurich like the one at Berninaplatz, if you can manage to find leek dumplings (which they are not consistent in their product selection), it is well over CHF 12-15, and not as good as the Korean dumplings. Ambiance: You don't come to eat here to propose to your girlfriend/boyfriend. It's purely business, y'a know? Well, you could propose here if your heart desires anyway...

    I robbed the grocery store: 3 types of pickled daikon, pickled tiny fish, fish balls which I fried and put on skewers.

    Great food, wonderful woman. In my opinion quite close to original Korean food, not westernised however nothing was super spicy. Lots of homemade goodies. I love the combination of grocery store with a tiny restaurant. We got kimchi pancakes, homemade steamed pork dumplings, so bulgogi beef with homemade tofu (comes with white rice), plus a noodle soup with meat of which I forgot the details. Long story short: I want to go back to try all what they serve! Then I want to try all their grocery products, there's bulgogi marinated meat, beautifully marbled, noodle soups, kimchi kimchi kimchi all sorts! And dumplings! Tofu or meat versions. Call me Schwarzenegger: I'll be backkk.

    If you want authentic Korean food Shilla is the place to be!…read more It is a bit off the beaten path (although still in Zurich), and when you enter you realize that it isn't the best atmosphere in Zurich - it is a kinda basic style restaurant like you find in many jn Seoul. However, an important thing you will note immediately is that most of the staff and customers are Korean, which is obviously promising. I've been a few times now and each time Shilla's food managed to deliver each time. Their bibimbap is delicious as a lunchtime treat, or any time of the day really and their KBBQ offering is simply divine: the Galbi special and Samgyeopsal (pork belly) are among my faves. The quality of the meat is very good and although the banchan spread is quite limited, it is all really tasty. The service is a mixture of what you get in Switzerland (not that impressive) vs Korea (polite but good). One time the waiter forgot one of our dishes and while it took a while before they realized it, the manager went above and beyond to apologize and rectify the error. I guess everyone makes mistakes and the fact that he really tried to convince me that this is someone who is really passionate about customers. I must say that unfortunately not all his staff are as good as him, some of them seem quite indifferent so sometimes the service can be a bit hit and miss. Yes it isn't cheap, but Zurich is an expensive city and you often get what you pay for. I noticed that their menu contains some of my all time favorite Korean dishes (Yukhoe) so I will certainly go back to try! Highly recommended!

    Dining at Korea House was definitely a mixed bag of experiences…read more First off the service, which was excellent. The staff and their taking care of their customers could not have been in any way better, attentive, quick to respond and serve. The food was a whole different experience. My wife & I ordered the beef Bibimbap for each of us. While the dish in itself was decent, the total rip off on the beef was surprising for a CHF40 dish. There were a few shreds of shaved beef hidden under a fried egg. This was the case in both servings, hence clearly not an error but a tourism rip off gig. While I had a cup of their rice wine, We also asked for 2 cups of tap water & were charged per cup of tap water. The lack of beef on a beef dish and the charging for tap eliminated all feel good from the meal & left us with a feeling that their enterprise was an unmitigated money grab. Despite the good service I would not recommend this place nor will I return for food or drink.

    I saw a picture of the bibimbap and couldn't resist. Given the location, I'm going with a 4 star…read more The service was prompt, clean, and comfortable to eat in. Also seems popular with the locals. As for the banchan, it was better than expected. The hot pot came out not not as hot as expected, so I couldn't get a good crust on my rice. I know, a bit picky, but bibimbap lovers will understand. I'm glad I found Korea Town, but expect the normal Swiss pricing if you go.

Deshalb tischen wir Speisen nach alten Rezepten und im Einklang mit der Tradition auf. Von Hand gemacht, ohne Gschmacksverstärker, für Ihr Wohlbefinden Gernot Müller Zum Kennenlernen möchten wir unser Okims vorstellen: Das Restaurant wurde vom St. Galler Architekturbüro Kimlim in der Art des traditionellen koreanischen Madang gestaltet. Dabei hat Architektin Eunho Kim den Madang umgestülpt: der Übergang von den Wohnungen in den Innenhof wird durch die umlaufende massive Holzbank symbolisiert, in Korea Tötmaru genannt, die Eingrenzung des Innenhofs. Im Zentrum steht der massive Holztisch, der für das Pyonsang steht, den Platz um sich auszutauschen, zu besprechen, zu erörtern, Spaß zu haben und natürlich zum Essen. Und wie in Korea der Bewohner nachts in den Sternenhimmel aufblickt und einen guten Tag in Frieden ausklingen lässt, leuchten im Okims kleine Kugeln an der Decke. Diese Gestaltung wurde mit dem Architekturpreis 2014 honoriert. Alle in unserem kleinen Team hoffen, dass Sie sich und Ihre Begleitung bei uns wohl fühlen, Ihnen Hansik, die koreanische Küche, schmeckt und Sie gerne wieder kommen
