Chop Chop

You'll walk past this narrow Fenwick Street shopfront unless you know what you're looking for. Inside, the counter setup might look modest, but the kitchen behind it turns out some of the most satisfying Korean and Japanese food in the city centre. The bulgogi bowls are generous enough to fuel you through a long afternoon, while the katsu curry hits that perfect balance of crispy pork and rich sauce that makes you forget about every mediocre version you've had before. The owners clearly care about getting things right – from the perfectly seasoned rice to the pickled vegetables that add the right acidic punch. It's primarily takeaway, but grab one of the few stools if you can and watch the controlled chaos of lunch service unfold.
