"Evenings at Taeyang Pocha start with the homework-next-to-the-tteobokki family crowd and end with dates and mates trickling in to clink bottles of Cass and get handsy with fried chicken. The Korean restaurant in New Cross doesn’t go in for bells and whistles when it comes to decor, save for a few strings of flashing lights that bounce off glistening, moreish KFC. And despite high-tempo K-pop pumping over the speakers, it’s more sedate than party in atmosphere. But the comforting, generous plates will lure you back. Skip starters like overly fried pajeon and dumplings, and load up on excellent soups with tender beef rib, balanced bibimbap, and saucy tteokbokki. " - Daisy Meager
