"So Gong Dong Tofu House is where Stanford students can escape the dining hall for great tofu soup. While the wait (and road rage in the tiny parking lot) at this Korean spot off of El Camino might test your patience, the gochugaru-filled tofu stew is worth it. There are 16 different varieties, but the dumpling version is the best thanks to the contrast between the chewy dumpling wrappers and the silky smooth tofu. Each bowl is served with plenty of banchan, and they also have a few bibimbap and some KBBQ items like bulgogi. But the soup is why you’re willing to put up with the guy shouting from his Tesla. " - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
